Life
Since I'm here, I may as well make this interesting :-)
If you knew me in high school, I'm certain you remember a very shy creature who was among the smart students, usually hanging around with Amie Frazier. Well, not much has changed, except I'm a lot wiser. And not so shy. But I'm still friends with Amie.
Right after high school I left for Germany. Literally three days after graduation. I got married within two months. Obviously I had a fiancee there already.
