Time for an update. To sum myself up again, I'm still the same hard working brutha that s now down to four jobs. Don't let that scare you off: my main job is a music teacher and my other jobs are professional music things that don't take up a lot of time. I finally have my house (since Feb 26) and have been working really hard to make it look like a home. I'm proud to say that I've decorated and furnished most of my home by myself: no help from any female :-)

I'm still teaching. 17 years and running. The kids love me. They better. I work hard for them and it shows through their classwork and concerts.

I'm still the SUNY Cortland Gospel Choir director. 9 years and running. We still perform locally, nationally and internationally.

I'm still at MD at New Life Temple of Praise Church 8 years and running. I'm blessed to be there. Bishop Dewberry is a cool dude :)

I'm still the keyboardist/trombonist/music director of the Soft Spoken Band. 5 years and running. The band has been in function for 28 years. I'm proud to be a part of it.

Playing music. I produce music, too.

Figuring out tech stuff. You'd be amazed to see what I can do with my tech stuff.

Shopping - I love a bargain and I shop online more than anything.

Scrabble - Do not challenge me. I will beat you.

Tic Tac Toe - Do not challenge me. I will beat you. If you're good, we will tie every game.

...living life! Now that I'm finally in my house and have 18 years under my belt teaching, I'm so ready to get out more. I want to attend festivals, music events, camp and hike, explore the Cuse and beyond.

chillin' at home but on occasion I'm at the casino, out of town in Rochester or wherever or making cash at a gig.
