Since 78 ...? Way more than I could remember, much less anybody would want to hear, so here's the 50K foot version.
Went to school between 78-81 (a few actually), moved back in with "mom" until she had enough, landed in Phoenix (82) where I eventually met and married Nazaria, moved back to STL where I eventually grew up (Thank GOD!!!).
Done everything from hotels to banking, then owning our own business, finally found my "career" in 1997 with GTE, which is now Verizon. I get to be an entrepeneur in the corporate world, you can't beat building businesses with someone elses money!
We're blessed with great kids, the older ones still think everything they do (or try doing) is new . . . NOT
Mom passed away way too early (in 99) and Dad's doing great @ 78. Enough for now, have to get back to the Zepplin playing on the Depo player . . . last song of the night Stairway to Heaven!
Coach Droste taking me aside the 1st day of Freshman Basketball and asking me if I'd ever thought about wrestling . . . Sloe Gin, 3.2 (wardarm) beer, bottle rockets & vehicles, water balloons from the Penthouse, Foosball at Electric Palace, Rocky Horror at the Varsity, locker room antics (boys being girls and analgesic balm) . . . enough said, hard to believe we're the "rents" now!!!
