I'm Unique Because... | Hmmm... because I guess we're all unique in our own ways.... a mini-bio, such as it is:
Grew up a suburban Orange County boy. US Army veteran (reserve retired), OIF&KFOR vet, been all over the western hemisphere and even spent time in NorCal recently. Transferred jobs again-- now living/working in San Diego County.
Got an associate degree (Orange Coast College graduate), and am widely read & self-educated beyond what my college certificates say.
I don't live to work, I just have to work in order to live-- genuine middle-class working guy (which made me "poor white trash" in the SF Bay area -- was still "poor white trash" on my paycheck in Monterey Bay-- would be doing better in OC except for owing money on taxes. F***!). I still manage to enjoy the life around here at least occasionally.
And, I'm a--
(one each) genuine, regulation-issue, nice guy. |
Useless Daily Update! | Back from Monterey-- trying to get my stuff together now that I'm home again... |
Interests | science fiction & fantasy

I Have a Dream | that someday I'm going to complete all of my required classes and graduate with that bachelor of arts degree I've been working towards.
Also, that someday soon I'll have time and motivation, and actually learn another language (to full fluency-- right now I still remember a little German, but I was never better than basic 'Traveler's German' and I really do want to break out of the mono-lingual American stereotype that I currently fit into). |
