I was born in 1981 in Des Moines, IA. My life has been nothing spectacular, so I'll try not to bore you with mundane details.
Most recently, I have moved to Minneapolis to live with my girlfriend while she attends school. I am currently employed as a jewelry salesman trying to keep my head above water while paying for rent, car insurance, and many years of student loans.
I hope not to offend people, but sometimes that is exactly what some people need! Stirring the pot has changed the world more than once; maybe this time it will be me that does the stirring!

Sanctuary His hiding place, he wears it well The last refuge Of his fragile soul When he was young, it was the World Now he's grown It's just his Hidden world A reminder of Youthful days long gone And crushed, compacted, collapsed Long ago, the Blackness came And began to plunder The fringes of his refuge His world has shrunk, shriveled And may soon die The Blackness grows, strengthens, devours What will he do How can he survive Naivet, innocence, his last rampart Will soon be lost
