When I got back to utah I discovered two things: Goth music, and computers... A friend of my mom was a computer tech who built systems out of his apartment, he started teaching me how to fix computers, and to hate windows 95... He also listens to The Cruxshadows, and Type O Negative, I found that when I was listening to music, any music really, I could forget and just relax... If it wasnt for Ron teaching me computers, I dont know what Id be doing for a living now... The rest of my teenaged years passed uneventfully, I never had friends, and I wasnt confident enough to try to make friends... When I hit 16, we moved to Kearns, a suburb of Salt Lake... Nobody knew me there and I was able to leave everything behind me and start again... I became more confident, through a lot of practice, and was able to make friends and have normal teenage relationships, though I hated most people my age group.... They hadnt seen hell, I did and it pissed me off to hear kids in the suburbs complaining about being grounded, or getting their car keys taken away... I was really cynical, and quite a bit of an asshole. I met a girl that seemed beautiful and soft and intelligent, she went nuts while we were dating and tried to get me kicked out of my home, she suceeded and I went to live with my grandmother, (my moms mom) and helped her take care of my great-grandparents... I did this for abut a year, thenI got adopted my my godparents, when a plan with my grandma to get my mom to take me back failed... They were southern baptists and very conservative, so we didnt mesh to well... I ended up leaving there and going back to live with my grandma, in the meantime I had failed mosts of my classes at school, and it didnt look like I could ever graduate... so, I chose to go to Jobcorps, because they could promise me my High School Diploma, A girl I was dating at the time came with me, because she didnt have anthing better to do. (she had graduated)... She was 22, I was 17... I graduated Jobcorps, with a certificate in Carpentry and my diploma, and went off to join the Army, since they would pay for college... I lasted all of 5 weeks before an accident in training would reveal that my knees had been badly shattered when I was younger, they figured the injury to be about 5 years old, and because of that, they discharged me... Since my g/f had told me that if I failed the military I fialed the relationship, I said the hell with it, got a job in tech support and moved in with my best friend... Shortly afterward, she came back and begged me to be with her, I agreed, and we got married shortly after (no points for intelligence) We lasted all of 11 months, with her trying as hard as she could to change me, and make me into her definition of a good man... Along the way she destroyed my cds, as well as a lot of my favorite movies, (Orgasmo and the like)... During the last month of our marrage, I met Ravel, we became friends fast, and after I got divorced, we became lovers... shortly after the divorce, My ex tried to burn down my home. so Ravel and I moved to Great Falls, MT to get away from all the drama... While we were in montana, Ravel got preggo, so we moved back to Salt Lake City UT... She gave birth to the most wonderful lil girl in the world, and ive never been happier... The rest, as they say, is history
