Steed's Story
How do you condense your life into a couple of paragraphs without being self-aggrandizing or self-deprecating?
My life has been a crooked path that crossed back and forth over that line that separates doing what you want to do from doing what you have to.
Over the years I have had to file on my taxes the following occupations:
Journalist
Graphic Artist
Musician
Roadie (actually we preferred Lighting Technicians)
Songwriter
Real Estate Agent
All sorts of computer-related jobs

live for a while. I have taken a day job as an I.T. Director for a couple of printing companies. I hope to also use this down time to straighten up my catalog and get back into songwriting (my true passion).
I am currently married to a woman that is better than I deserve. She's an artist/publicist with a warm heart, a beautiful smile and the patience of a saint. We have no kids (by choice - it just didn't fit our lifestyle).
That's probably as condensed and objective as I can be about my own life. It is what it is. I've had a lot of fun getting to this point, but more than anything I'm shocked I made it this far. Who knew? I didn't have anything planned after 40.
Now that I'm all grown up I guess I will have to figure out what I want to do.
