Today in the grocery store a little boy locked eyes with me and asked, "Are you a pirate?" I responded, "Arrrgh me hearty, you know wot I be a pirate!" in my best gravelly pirate voice. You should have seen his face and that of his little sister light up! It was awesome. I wasn't even dressed as a pirate but for some reason, I get that a lot. ;-)
Anyway, I am the father of 4 amazing and grown children. I am loyal, trustworthy, honest, kind, patient and a loving person. Slow to anger and quick to forgive. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. I try to live my life that way. I live in Hawaii by myself on a sailboat that I own. I have a great job as a safety manager and when this contract is over I'm hoping to move to Temecula, CA or there 'abouts'. (One of my kids lives there and wants to get a place together). I am also a self-published author and have begun writing a book series for tweens called Seven Deadly Sins of a Pirate. It's on the internet if you want to find it. As a matter of fact, I do charity events for children where I'll dress up as the books protagonist and hand out things from Captain Smew's treasure chest and play with the children, the ones that arrrr not scared. ;-)
On Halloween is the only time I dress as Cpt. Jack Sparrow, or if a POTC movie comes out, then I will. I read kids books on YouTube as Captain Smew too, for younger children. I still have so many to edit. Ugh.
Church attendance, I work over 60 hours a week and living on a boat there are things that are difficult about that life. I get to church once or twice a month. I would go more and was going all the time until I got this new job. FYI. Don't judge ;-)
Body type is between fit and average but I'll put average to be on the safe side. lol. I work out several times per week though. I like being healthy and consume a mostly vegan diet.
