Here I Am!

Are you really sure you want to ride this train?

I reside in Indianapolis, Indiana. If you're geographically challenged Indianapolis is the capitol of Indiana. I made a nifty little graphic to show you where! See! I'm a transplant to Indiana by way of New York. I'm still in a New York frame of mind though. You don't need to live in New York City to be a New Yorker! I've lived in New York state all my life so I reserve the right to call my so! But the Mid-West is cool, it's a whole different culture.

I got married in 1999 to my then girlfriend of seven years. You do the math beyond that. This is something that I take very seriously! If you're in a long term relationships and you plan on getting on married or even if you don't but plan on staying with this person forever heed my words. Take nothing for granted! It can all change in a blink of an eye. And I'll tell you why! Shortly after being married for just over a year my wife had a bowel obstruction and some really nasty surgery's. To make a super long story short, her intestines didnt heal correctly, they adhesed to one another and ended up in this big mass for which the doctors removed roughly two thirds of her bowel (both large and small). What once was a woman of one hundred twenty plus pounds is now somebody that has to fight to just maintain one hundred pounds. I've seen some really strange things over the course of this, bad fungual infections in central lines, sat in hospital emergency room(s) and hospital patient rooms way too many times from 2000 thru 2006. Things have sort of leveled out an we pretty much live a somewhat normal life now. Although it has a things that are missing from it, but, we're still together. The moral of this real life story is: Treat everyday of your relationship as if it was your last because it can change at a moments notice!

From playing the supportive role and trying to repress stuff so far back in my mind from what has happened I finally sucombed to anxiety attacks. I'm not talking about first date anxiety, butterflies in the stomach stuff. These are hard core anxiety attacks! I was on medication for a while but I stopped taking it, I didn't like the way it made me feel. For the most part the attacks have subsided and now once in a while I'll get one. Let me tell you what one is like! Imaging that you feel like you're going to die and you don't know why for no appearent reason, you can't breathe and you have this feeling of impending doom hanging over you! Five minutes could feel like five days! They're pretty horrible to say the least! This all came on gradually a year or two after my wife took ill like I told you in the above. It was hard to go out and see other couples having a normal time and it still is when I have to try and keep my wife alive. It sucks that I don't have anybody to talk to on the regular about things since I really have no friends outside of work. I basically go to work and come home, fool around with internet stuff and do some things with her on the off time. What would be interesting would be to meet people that are in the same situation I'm in, feeling the same way I feel. Enough of that! Lets move on!

Some of my favorite things

• Color : Blue
• Movies : Terminators 1,2 & 3, A Time to Kill, I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, Star Wars (only the movies), Steel Magnolias, 28 Day Later, 28 Weeks Later, The Transporter 1,2 & 3 (1 was the best), Monsters Ball, Do The Right Thing, Jungle Fever, Thin Line Between Love and Hate, Purple Rain, Day After Tomorrow, Apollo 13, The Bank Job, The Italian Job
• Boxers or Briefs : The age old question! I choose the hybrid, the boxer breif! =)

My likes and dislikes. Not in any particular order, just throwing them down as they come off my head.

Thinks I like!

• My mom ? with out her I would have been possible!!
• The color blue.
• Pasta, I'm a pasta freak! But I try not to over do it!
• My car, when it functions properly. The poor thing has 176,000 miles on it. And it's time is fading.
• My new car that replaced my above car! Wooo Wooo!
• Days that sunny and are not too hot or humid.
• Creating stuff on my computer, especially when it looks nice!
• Hitting Six Flags amusement park when the money is right. You just about have to sell a body part just to get a ticket!
• When my wife isn't complaining about something that isn't my fault.
• It's weird but snow storms! Give me a blizzard a full fridge of food and screw it, it can snow for days!
• New software! Better yet .. new kewl software that is free!
• Paying all my bills on time!
• New clothes, doesn't happen often
• A couple extra dollars in my pocket
• Having a job, cause there's folks out there that lost there's and are having one hell of a time finding another one! Hang in there!
• Netflix! Oh yeah!
• My iPod, the stupid thing is like a drug! I can't function without it!
• Not being in New York State! Becuase now I get to see how free people live! OUCH!
• Jason Statham movies! Break some ass son!
• A COLD fresh bottle of caffienne free diet Pepsi! Mmmmmmmm .. the bite is so good!

Things that I really dislike!

• Ignorant people! I have no tolerance for them!
• Asshole cops! They're not all bad, it's just the bad ones that make it worse for the good ones.
• People that use this country. Example: come here to work and send our money and food back to "the mother country." That pisses me off!
• Bootleg movies! You know damn well when you buy one from bald headed Willy and his one eye cat that they aren't going to play well. So what where you expecting?
• When my car breaks down. Cause I know it going to cost serious bucks! (not happening since the new car 3 year ago)
• Underwear that binds!
• Bad ass children! I blame the parents 100%!!
• People who ignore their kids.
• Not having enough money to do things with.
• The price of a movie ticket
• The price of a freak'n gallon of gas! Although this has gotten better!
• Overly humid days! Ick!
• Potholes!
• The standard b/s car insurance companies give you about your insurance rate is calculated by your credit score. What kind of crap is that? Last I knew credit had nothing to do with you cracking up your car!
• Crappy urban/hip-hop/rap music it just isn't what it used to be!
• Flat soda! Ick!

I guess that's enough of what I like and don't like. I'm a pretty easy going person for that most part as long as nobody pisses me off! Doesn't do any good to go through life angry and it takes more muscles to frown then it does to smile! That's why I just sit here with a blank expression on my face. It keeps them guessing!

By now your saying "Hey, that was more info than I needed to know!" Yet I shared it and your where nosey enough to read it all!
