Thanks guys = )

Well, to start off I interestingly have no amphibians in my collection. I joined this forum as a means to obtain more information about some frogs and to contribute to the feeder forum mostly... But I'll save more of the details behind that for tomorrow. My brain is essentially mush right now, so bare with me as this post will likely be sporatic and unorganized.

I was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio and have lived here my entire life. Family has always been great and the story of my life is pretty much an animal lover cliche, so I'll save that. Aside from a couple of near-death experiences that drastically changed my outlook and appreciation for life, nothing too remarkably exciting to report. I've done work in a few labs between Wright State University, the Univeristy of Dayton and for Wright-Patterson AFB for biofuels and working with certain microorganisms (particularly the common cold virus). Lab work has always been my fortay but it isn't necessairly something I wish to do for a career. I'd much rather spend my time outside in the fresh air if possible.

For my interests and whatnot I'll just list things as they come to mind...let the random ranting begin! I don't really watch TV, but enjoy movies... good comedies and action movies are always good. My favorite color is Red. I don't really like talking on the phone or texting for extended periods of time. I like to lay in the grass and stare at the stars and the clouds. I like to run, bike, and workout at the gym in my free time. I do a lot of yardwork and enjoy growing my own produce. I have a cat, and my doggie just recently passed at the age of ten to an autoimmune disease. My cat is 21 years old and she inspires me with her lawlz. I recently rescued a litter of kittens that were left in a box in the middle of the road... the people in this world amaze me. I shower at least once a day. I'm very left-brained and lack any creativity whatsoever. I'm kind of a perfectionist. I enjoy longboarding and always wear a helmet doing so. I listen to a lot of dubstep but can appreciate good music of any genre (except for some rap music). I don't watch a lot of sports. Most of my good friends are hippies. I haven't been in a relationship in 3 years after my ex cheated on me. I'm afraid to commit to relationships now (working on it). I've been shot at. I try not to judge people by first impressions. I'm a moral person but do not have any serious religious beliefs. I don't have a facebook . I've been on various herp related forums for about ten years. I absolutely hate heights and roller coasters, and I'm claustrophobic. I like ice cream... anyone else ever feel like you can eat pounds of ice cream even when you are full? Brownie batter and cookie dough are both better than ice cream. I like to cook. I don't like to dance. I like to take naps in hammocks. I sometimes spin poi. Jack Daniels is my drink of choice. I brake if I see leaves moving across the road. I'm always hot and prefer cooler weather. I like to fish sometimes... lakes are some of my favorite places to be in the world. I'm a morning person. I don't write poems or make any kind of art, and am deeply envious of those who can.

Thats probably good enough for now... enjoy reading that mess ; ) A bit rushed today so don't really have the time to organize my thoughts, haha

Hi Jeff,
I'm behind by one day. Sorry about that.
Good to really meet you.
However, all of this wonderful information does not surprise me one bit as FF posts have always been :smart, sensitive and intelligent, and polite !
