More about me...

I have a large family, numbering about 50 members in my (extended of course!) family. I've been married for over 13 years now to M., and have 2 stepchildren, U., a son, and V., a daughter. I'm currently separated from M., which looks to be permanent. U. is serving with the U.S. Army, has a wife, 2 sons and a daughter on the way. V. is working at an insurance company, and hasn't settled down with anyone yet. I have a cat named Tater, he spends his days sunbathing, sleeping and meowing for more food. He has recently learned how to get on the kitchen look-through, and now considers the kitchen counters his residence.

For now, I work, I sleep, and I'm trying to learn how to cook. Everyone always says, your life is a work in progress, but right now I'd like to move forward to the point where the entire separation doesn't hurt like dwarves are beating on your skull from the inside with sledgehammers. I just keep coming back to the point where I stand desolate amidst a plain that was full of such beauty and is now devoid of life, like the moon's surface.

I work for a major telecommunications service, and quite honestly, the place is crap. Pure, unadulterated steaming horseshit from one end to the other, and is run like the keystone kops meets Hellraiser. This company proudly proclaims it has never had an employee layoff; this is technically true, however, employees are fired on a daily basis for reasons that only a lunatic would get upset over.

Anyway, I'm done with the background info. I'm sure that I'll mention more but I'll try not to bore you too much.
