  Like my sub- title says at the top of the page,  I grew up in the Greater- Cincinnati Area ( Northern Kentucky)  until I graduated high school.
 I was a kid who after high school had " to get the hell away from my hometown,  and at the time Pittsburgh seemed to be far enough away.  After college I moved back home for about a year and a half,  and in December,  2003 I moved to Lexington.
 I am engaged to my girlfriend of 3 years,  and 8 months,  Andrea.  We are to be married May 21st,  2005 at the Church that I grew up in,  Holy Cross in Northern Kentucky.
 My parents have been divorced since I was seven or 8,  but I still keep in touch with both of them,  and see both of them regularly.  I have one older brother who has been married since 1997.  They have one child,  with another to arrive anyday now.
 My neice,  Ainsleigh Rose will be 4 years old this Christmas.  She is a total riot,  and I absolutely love visiting her.  She refers to Andrea and I as " Uncle an' Eea"
When she was first learning to talk,  she couldn't pronounce anything over two syllables,  so that's what we taught her to call us.  My nephew ( who I think they're going to name Kade)  is supposed to be due next month,
 but the doctor said he could arrive anyday now. And when he begins speaking,  I'm sure he too will know Andrea and I as " Uncle an' Eea"  So,  why do I refer to myself as a "
Social Nomad"  Well,  that's a long,  but easy story.  About every 2 -  4 years my group of close friends seem to change,
 and I don't seem to stay in the same group of friends for more than that. I do,  however,  have a few friends that I've had since I was 16,  and one friend that I've known since first grade. Even when I was going to college in Pittsburgh,
 my " clique"  of friends changed every few months or so. I mean,  hell,  I went through 6 roommates in 4 years.
Maybe there's something wrong with me,  I dunno. Well,  I guess that's more than enough for one posting,  and if you happen to drop by and read anything,  thanks for stoppin' by!
