John's Story
I'm married since 1992, we have three children, at the moment they are 13, 10, and 4. I'm sure that the next time I update this they will be much older.
I work for Cisco Systems as a programmer and all around technical resource. We live in Northern NJ in Sparta where I work mostly from my basement and travel to customers as needed.
My life since HS has been what very average, got the wife, then some kids, then a house, then some more kids. We moved a lot early on. We have lived in Michigan and Florida, Southern NJ and now Northern NJ. Of all the places I liked Southern NJ the best. Were we are now is OK, good amount of property, close enough to the city and LI for when when get back there, but the drawbacks are the wildlife. Very often black bears wander though our yard. The deer and the other critters eat everything that grows, flowers, vegetables, shrubs, bushes, etc...
Sounds very rural, and sometimes it is, the night life here typically doesn't extend beyond 12:30.
I keep in touch with only one or two people from HS, but very infrequently.
If you were to ...Expand for more
see me now, you probably wouldn't recognize me. In HS I weighed about 120-130 lbs now I'm about 210, pretty solid, workout regularly and am currently working towards a Black Belt.
My wife and I were setup by my mother and my wife's Aunt. We went on our first date because we felt obligated and ended up talking about getting married by our third date. Six months later we were engaged and a year later married. She is the nicest person you'll ever meet, always acts interested in what you have to say and very genuine. Which makes up for my total disdain of most and inability to care about anybody other than her and my children. I would say we are a good pair.
If you have made it this far congratulations, feel free to print out and keep by you bedside in the event that you need something to put you to sleep. I can be reached at john at movinalot dot com. If your ever up in Sparta send an email and let me know where you'll be, I be sure to avoid it so we don't run into each other and have to pretend that we were once friends and have to suffer through some awkward thing.
