Life Hi all! Still hangin' in the Sun City, but it may not be long before we leave, who knows? I'm enjoying my 30's and 40's FAR more than my early years and being a dad and hubby is awesome. Thank God for middle age. It sure was fun waiting until now to have kids. Our first son, Jarrett is nearly 4. In fact, my "then" picture is of Jarrett, not me. You guys remember that big square rock in the hall next to the principal's office, the pregnancy stone? Well, my wife sat on that stone for a short while when we visited the school at the 2000 reunion and guess what?--- We conceived that night! Might just have to visit the school again shortly as we're trying for #2. I think we have another reunion this year, don't we? Well, count me out for that one. Too many other interesting things to do this time around..... like floss. You all have a safe and happy 2005! School Gawd, where do I start..... I had crushes on lots of girls but none would have anything to do with a dweeb like me (smart move). Guess I was a late bloomer. B.P. took a chance on me and we had a blast. We were just kids.... we didn't know what we were doing. I really didn't care for Austin High much.... sorry, but I just never fit in there. Would have been better suited for Burges because I had attended Ross Jr. High and all my friends went to Burges, but couldn't pull it off because of that stupid "gotta live in the district" thang. I met some quality folks at Austin and they're probably all still good people today, but not many that I'd call "friends". I keep in touch with a handful of them. The rest probably think of me as some sort of novelty, which is fine. I met some kick ass people so I'll name a few: Tina, Lee, Brinda, LyAnne, Joel, Charles, Sue, Kim, Coach Wills...etc...I really enjoyed sports, when I finally decided to participate and my best times in school were spent with my Choir pals. Good ol' Miss Aguilar, the choir director! If there were ever a student/teacher crush, it was that one. ......Expand for more
