I am a very lucky man. Why, you ask? Well, my life is very compatible with my career choice. Allow me to explain:

I knew at a very, very young age that I wanted to be a storyteller. Not so much a writer, but the guy in the group that has all the great stories. I am lucky in the fact that, for one, I am good at telling stories -- hence the career ( Read more... )

This winter sucks. It might be the combination of the UNRULY amount of snow that has unleashed itself on us (eleven feet to date) with the fact that this is my first winter as a homeowner (i.e. having a driveway to shovel), but I hate hate hate this winter.
