Not sure deciding to start writing a book on Fourth of July weekend is the best idea! I am proud to say though that despite lack of sleep due to working and debauchery followed by a day of slacking for recovery purposes I have still managed to make some progress! I managed to create a database to track characters, […]
Today I took some steps to firm my commitment to give birth to a book, as well as help the process along. For obvious reason, what to write has been a strong presence in my mind for two days now. Because of this and the wild and woolly ways of the active mind, I had me a dream this […]
Yesterday I was standing in a crossroad, determining what path I wanted to take. Today I am now formally taking my first steps along this path. I still don’t have a clue where the path will lead, but I am on it. Though there are a few vague ideas floating around. The self proclaimed objections to me […]

As I may have mentioned before, I have had my fair share of adventures. One of the more life changing ones was my participation in the Sea Education Association (S.E.A.). In this program, we spent half a semester at Woods Hole, MA learning sailing technique and various oceanographic related studies. The second half of the semester we spent aboard a […]
I have lived a bit of an adventurous life. Was kind of an adrenaline junkie when I was younger. As a result, I have had several invitations by cheery Thanatos himself, which I graciously declined.
