Jay's Story

Life My life in four paragraphs and < 2000 characters – how depressing. Oh well. Life has been a wee bit interesting since I walked out of those high-school gates. Not exactly as expected, but I have not been one to do the expected -- nothings changed there. After high school I tried Community College for a year, but that wasn’t for me. I spent the next 7 years playing and working at a variety of jobs (i.e., manufacturing & construction) – mainly playing. 7 years later I figured that was enough of that and decided it would be better to use brains rather than brawns to make a living. So, I went back to college. (That’s what I was suppose to do after high school, right? So, I’m a little late) I eventually graduated from West Valley and U.C. Santa Cruz with 2 degrees (I was un-decisive so I had 2 majors – I had the time). Once I had proven to the world I could put my life on hold and sit through college, it was then time to start a career, get marrie...Expand for more
d and buy a house (just like I was suppose to do). So, a couple years after graduating I was married and living in the East Bay. It was time to have kids, but funny how ‘life’ gets in the way of our plans. I took a while, but I finally got a son in 2007. Over the years I’ve gone through ‘a few’ travails, but managed to get a MBA.. So, I’m an over educated worker bee with all his hair. I’ve moved around the East Bay and figured out I like space - not the booming metropolis. So I’ve kept moving further out and have eventually ended up with a bit of land in the Delta area. Unfortunately that booming metropolis is now swallowing up my little piece of country. Ugh! So, I have moved to the Nothern Rocky Mountains where it is kind-of like San Jose when I grew up (but with less people).. What does the future hold for me? I do know my plans may undergo revisions - not of my choice, but based on ‘life’. Thanks for wasting a little bit of your time here.
