I am even-minded and cheerful. Peolpe like me. I attended parochial schools (Catholic) and went away to college in the corn fields of Illinois. Upon graduation I took a job with a corporation. For reasons that are still unclear to me they igned me the position of traveling internationally to our other operations and telling other people what they should do. (Pretty heady stuff for a young person). After a while I quit and went back to school and 1991 saw me headed to Austin Texas (If I never live anywhere else, I won’t be disappointed). Today I find myself a single parent of a 4 year old boy (He’s beautiful). As a result of that and other transformative events I feel as though I am starting my life over and I am joyous (most of the time). You wouldn’t be able to tell by any of the above, but I’m sure many of my friends think I am very funny. I myself think it may have started as a defense mechanism, but funny is funny. You wouldn’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth.
