Robert's Story

After St Joe's, I attended community college for 2.5 years and received an associate degree as a paralegal. Tried for 2 years working a fulltime job and applying for jobs in the Paralegal field with no success so I went into restaurant management. Met my first wife on a blind date and was married in 1980. John Janda was my best man, also, the godfather of Nicole, my first daughter. At that time, I worked for McDonald's as a manager which continued until 1987 when I had enough of being a glorified babysitter at McDonald's and tried something new. That lasted for about 2 years with no success so went back to McDonald's. my first daughter, Nicole, was born in 1982 and just turned 26 this week. Boy, am I getting old. She is a graduate of UMSL and is a certified teacher. Works in a small school district in Columbia, Mo. teaching 1st grade. Trying to get back to the St Louis area as her friends and boyfriend all live here. my next daughter, Ashley, was born in 1985. she just turned 23 in February and is currently attending SLU majoring in Occupational Therapy. Good, at least one daughter who will actually make money and will be able to take care of me in my old age. Nicole states that she is going to place me in a cheap home. my last daughter, Kayleigh, was born in 1988. she is currently attending St Charles Communtiy College and has now been accepted at MSU in Springfield, Mo. not sure if she has made up her mind as to a major. back to my history. in 1992, the proverbial crap hit the fan and i divorced my wife. had a rough 4-5 years with assorted problems. if interested, ask and i will tell; otherwise, don't want to bore you. left McDonald's and returned as a courier for about 6 years until 2000 when I accepted a job in the mailroom for Sedgwick CMS which led to a 7.5 year career as a work comp claims examiner. during that time, a mutual friend set me up with a friend of hers and we dated for 2 years and I married her, Jan, on my birthday, 08/09, in 2006. everybody told m...Expand for more
e that getting married on your birthday is like being born on Xmas, you only get one present; however, i thought it was brilliant as the chances of me forgetting my birthday are slim to none and thus, i won't forget my anniversary. think about it....brilliant. with this marriage, i inherited a cat, lucky, and 2 step-daughters, Brittany and Venus, ages 19 and 22. i can't catch a break, no boys except for my dog, Sabbath, a boston terrier; however, i, also, have a female boston terrier, Izzy. own a house in calverton park, missouri and am currently working for CCMI and handling work comp claims. Jan is a LPN who is currently studying for her RN. wish her luck. still love music with a preference for 70's rock, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, etc; however, I like most of the new music; however, i will admit, i don't understand and/or like rap. sorry, just a personal preference. oh, forgot to tell you that after my divorce, i got something i had always wanted but my ex-wife would have none of it. Have you guessed yet??? if not, scroll down. a TATTOO and if you have heard that they are addictive, believe it. i am walking proof of it. i now have sleeves on both arms with about 7 in various other parts of the body. had a few piercings but have slowly gotten rid of them. grew my hair real long and now have decided that that is too hard to take care of and either, my head is shaved or real short. wife hates it but it is so much easier to take care of. well, i think that is about it, except, i have thought over the years, how great it would be to see ex-75er's but i was realistic and thought that it would never happen. we may not all be able to get together in one place but with the internet, we can at least keep in touch and you never know, maybe one day, we will meet again. well, that's it. if you read and this get a chuckle, good. if you want to talk about old times, let me know. sorry for being wordy but once i get going, you cannot shut me up. talk at you later. bob
