About Phil Print E-mail
 "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO WHAT A RIDE!"


There is a quote sums up the way I WANT to live. It's hard to balance that against the responsibilities of life, of course. On one hand I am at a point in my life where "doing the right thing" & "doing what's expected of you" has NOT lead to the life that was advertised. On the other hand that pursuit got me 2 great kids (whom are the most important thing in my life), I am fairly established for someone my age and I've learned A LOT. None the less, it's a strange time for me.

Truth is I'm less sure of my life at 35 than I was at 25, except now I got these 2 lovable little gremlins looking up to me like I got it all figured out. LOL, I think it's safe to say the next 5 years should be interesting.
