Accent: I grew up travelling all over, so it is a mix of the West/Southwest usually – so not much of one. I tend to pick up a little of wherever I am at at the moment & so blend in more or less anywhere south or west – never did the New England or Upper Midwest stuff. LOL and overseas I have been able to mimic somewhat well at times too, which has confused people!
Breakfast or no breakfast: Normally no – even when on dayshift. The most will be like fruit & yogurt if I am having some.
Chore I don't care for: Hate cleaning the bathroom & sweeping/mopping floors – rest I can tolerate!
Dog or Cat: Both – an Akita and a normal psychotic housecat.
Essential Electronics: My computer, some source of music (iPod usually), cell phone & watch.
Favorite Cologne/Perfume: Don’t wear cologne often but RGX Body Spray a bit of – I hate people who soak in the stuff!
Gold or Silver: Silver
Handedness: Right – the only thing I can do well with my left hand is type, otherwise I’m almost a complete righty!
Insomnia: almost always – I usually get by on 5-6 hours of sleep; and it’s hard for me to sleep at night which is why I work mids.
Job Title: Police Officer, madman, daddy :D.
Kids: 2: Jacob just turned 3 and is way too smart and brilliant and fun; and Kyleigh who is almost nine months old and daddy’s little girl!
Living Arrangements: Modest, a four bedroom built in 1939 and which is slowly being brought into better condition.
Naughtiest Childhood Behavior: Letting my brother get in trouble for things I had done as a kid because I knew he would get tired of getting grounded before I would & confess. Of course, I got in trouble for plenty of his stuff so it balanced out!
Most Admirable Trait: I guess my intelligence and patience with most things.
Overnight hospital stays: Pneumonia when I was three, everything else was outpatient.
Phobias: No real phobias – fear of failure and of losing control I guess. Don’t like heights (which is why I climb), and can’t really think of any other major ones.
Quote: I don’t know – my friends will have to tell me one I say all the time!
Reason to smile: I am blessed with two children who think I am the most amazing person in the world, even when I am not home & up for them or their mother nearly as much as I should be.
Siblings: One younger brother.
Time I wake up: Depending on work schedule – if normal then about 5 or so in the afternoon; if off then usually around noon or so depending on when I get to bed.
Unusual Talent or Skill: Despite the complete lack of any other artistic ability I can paint miniatures and models and actually do a pretty darn good job of it, even though I haven’t had tons of time I’ve put towards it lately.
Vegetable I Refuse to Eat: Brussel sprouts. Turnips. Onions. Peppers. Squash family. Lots of others – I am a horribly picky eater & will cook with some for flavor but never eat the bad list!
Worst Habit: I tend to hold too much inside & think that I need to do everything myself.
X-rays: Lifetime? Let’s see – normal dental xrays; chest for broken ribs once; ankle when they thought I broke it; both hands & wrists because of tendon & arthritis issues.
Yummy Stuff: Meat! Fire up that grill! Sushi. Pizza. Beer. Good cooking. I’m simple lol.
Zoo Animal I Like Most: While not a fan of animals in captivity, I would say that wolves, big cats & raptors get my general attention if I have to go.
