My biggest passion is music...always has been; particularly punk. I've been playing bass since I was 12, played in many bands and toured everywhere. My days of trying to make a full time job out it are pretty much over (although I made it happen for a while) so it was time for plan B.
I went back to school and became a substance abuse counselor. That job didn't last. I couldn't facilitate a group of mostly hardcore addicts, when there were guys and gals in the room who just got busted for a little weed or had bad luck one night and got an aggravated DUI. Those few weren't addicts but I had to treat them all equally. It was bulls**t. Not to mention, the hypocrisy I felt telling everyone they had to be clean when I feel all drugs should be legalized. That might sound extreme to some, but it would eliminate the need for gangs, which would eliminate 90% of homicides, which would eliminate the need for so many jails. Also, the vast majority of people in them are just drug addicts. Someone should not be sitting in jail because they need to get high. Don't get me wrong though, I'm a not a heavy drug user, I'm just speaking from a point of logic Well, s**t, this starting to sound like a college essay but I go on rants!
So now I'm back in school full time and studying to be a history teacher, in particular, Medieval European history. It's so dark and twisted...I guess that fascinates me. I'm also into Goth...probably because it comes straight out of Medieval Europe and is so beautifully dark.
Overall, I'm a very happy, mellow guy who loves a sick sense of humor and a gal who isn't easily offended; not all into PC bulls**t. Life is short, let's have some f**kin' fun and stay out of the drama bubble so many people thrive on.
