If something happens to me...

This is an official record:

If anything happens to me where I cannot make a decision about my life, health, and or fate, Josh Kirkpatrick may speak for me. If Josh is not around, my sister Nell can speak for me. If she is not around, my dad Brian can speak for me. Josh has first rights on any property belonging to me (my car, computer, music, etc). Also, if anything happens to me, Squeeek, z0rg, and any other pets I may have will go to him for care.

And for gods sake, if it's 'pull the plug or keep her alive by machine', pull the plug! I don't want to be a vegetable for the rest of my life. Do not resuscitate!

Cremate my ass! And please let my ashes wash out to sea with the tide at 'my cove' in Duncan's Landing just north of Bodega Bay, CA on Hwy 1.

About Me

I was borne on December 8, 1975 in Indianapolis, Indiana. My mom is Kim, my dad is Brian. I have a sister, Nell, whois 25.

I did the normal regiment of elementary school, jr.high, high school, then college. I graduated from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana in June of 2000 with a degree in general studies. I took 4 solid years of educational classes, but never got the certificate because I knew i was moving to a state where I'd just have to redo the whole thing again.

Life was pretty normal *until* I went to college. Then I discovered the internet, my mom went pscyho, and I learned that there was more to life than getting married and having kids. So, I dove into being a computer junkie and broke up with my fiance, Kit. The next 3 years pretty much sucked ass. I won't go into details because it really doesn't matter much anymore. I hooked up with Brent in May of 1996. In October of 1999, I decided that I was in a rut and needed a radical change. "We're moving to California. This place sucks anymore." And that's just what we did. Brent got a job in Santa Rosa (an hour north of San Francisco) and the rest is history. Now, I know this is supposed to sound sad, but, "mom and dad's divorce if final! yay!!!!". One or both of them gave up and it was time to move on. About *damn* time, if I may say so myself. Mom's started a body shop business and car lot with Dale, her S.O. and dad is engaged to a lady near Cincinatti, Ohio. My sister is in grad school in Switzerland where she's majoring in econ and minoring in polysci and international law.

As for me? In January of 2004, my bf Brent and I ended our relationship/living situation, so I moved into a room of a house with a really nice lady...or so I thought! I brought my cat Squeeek along too. Then really nice lady turned into a very difficult person with lots of problems that I just didn't want to deal with. So, Squeeek and I got our own place and are pretty happy on our own. Lurk, my princess, went on to bigger and better things in May, so now it's just z0rg left with Brent, whom he lived with until September of 2005, and now he lives with his mommy again!

In December of 2004, Gracila came into my life. She's a bit skittish, but she'll adjust eventually. Damn crazy psycho cat! However, Peet the dog next door thought she was mighty tasty, and we ended up having to put her down. In April of 2005, I lost my job and my car was robbed in the same day, and that was pretty much the final straw in a long line of events that happened. I got a new job and moved out of Santa Rosa and moved to Concord. I work in Walnut Creek. In July of 2006, Josh and I got an apartment together in Oakland. I still have Squeeek and z0rg. I got a job working for a commercial mortgage place in Walnut Creek, and the job is awsome.

So, I suppose I cannot complain too much. I live somewhere where I can be myself, there's always a show to go to even if you have to drive a bit, and it's not the midwest! Altho I don't mind going back to visit now, I don't think I could ever live there again. Not that California doesn't have it's ups and downs, but it's a whole lot better than living in Indiana.

A Matter of Public Record

I would like to go on record for the following:

There is officially nothing left at the Windmill Circle residence that is mine or that I want. Also, I am no longer using Squeeek.com to host my website. I have not used squeeek.com since September, however, I maintained the spam mailbox, until December 31, 2005.

This is a matter of record in case there is any question in the future as to what belongs to who (for whatever unforeseeable reason).
