ily and I'm at peace with myself. hmmm...not so bad after all huh? I like to think I'm a good friend, I have no enemies.just people who to me,no longer exist.

Baseball one minute,sex drugs and rock 'n roll the next.
I can't stand bigotry in any form.
i got sick in my early twenties, self-medicating my life and friends away.
That's over now and I've got some bridges to rebuild. Hopefully.
