First One

Ok, I've never really done a blog entry... ever. I'm 40 and I live in Tacoma, WA. I'm married (almost 15 years now) and have two children, Sophia ( 8 ) and Danny ( 5 ). I joined 2old2play ahead of Halo 3 to find some more "mature" gamers as I have had enough of the Timmies and the wide range of crap they bring with them online. I've joined the Curmudgen Grudge and Halo Brigade clans and that should be enough. I don't know that I'm a "gamer" really, but I love the Halo series and I really liked Gears of War.

More about me... I coach my daughter's soccer team and help out with my son's. It's soccer season, so we're pretty busy with that now. This summer my nephew and I made an attempt at being a "band"... he plays drums and I play guitar and try to sing. We'll continue with it because it's fun and I just like spending some time with him. If you want to check us out, we're at www.myspace.com/theaxlemoans Most of the story on our page is made up, but some parts are true. We have one song finished, "Shaker Church." Give it a listen if you want. Its not great, maybe not even good, but we had a lot of fun putting it together.

Other than that I'm just looking forward to playing with my new clanmates online in Halo 3, whether it's MM, customs, or campaign.
