Go to school and be serious M-F, then have lots of fun on the weekends... Play bass at church every other Sunday which cuts into a little fun time, but it's all good. I try to keep my life as stress0free as possible, but that doesn't always happen.

Will it determine your deathstyle?

Personally, these days I spend most of my time at university and doing homework. If I'm not doing that, I'm either watching movies, sports, playing bass or on the netz. I guess I'm semi-reclusive since I don't go out and party alot or anything.

Lifestyle? What are my options?

I am a slightly overprotective dad that likes to play bass, drums, guitar and record in my basement.

My wife and I pull in decent income but don't live "snooty". I like a cheap stiff whiskey sometimes and a good pot of chicken and dumplins'.

My wife is British and I share actually a good bit of her views (before marriage and before we even met).

My 2 kids are spoiled, my almost 3 year has his own ukelele and mini drumset. He is almost destined to be a drummer due to the fact he is Bam Bam reincarnate.

My lifestyle? I spend my money on my family and kids "now". They won't have second childhood and I don't want to have a bunch of money I can't have fun with when I am in diapers and eating out of a bottle again.

They both have massive college funds from the grandparents so we are set there.

I have a wonderful 3200 sq ft house on 1 acre and a newer car for the wife and kids to putz around in and my old beat up pickup to get me back and forth to work and haul mulch and wood.

I would say our lifestyle is normal, but we are not.

My wife is an artist and we are eccentric and really don't like the norm, unless you warn us you are stopping by for a visit you will see an ill organized household with a family full of love and laughs.

I'm a stoner nerd...I have a good paying job in computers, I like video games and magic. I also have a party side...I smoke, I brew and consume beer, party hard on weekends.

Then there is bass.

Being a dad, husband, and bass player are the things that make me most happy. I work as the project manager for a company I'm a part-owner of, but it's not my passion, just a good vehicle for a decent paycheck. I like drinking good booze and beer, and I like eating good food, but cheap booze and crappy food work fine, too. I wish I got more sleep, exercised more, and had more sex. I live comfortably, but not extravagantly. I like buying toys for me, and spoiling the hell out of my wife. I spend too much time being frustrated at myself and the people around me, and not enough time laughing. Overall, I feel like a very lucky man who is happy with where life is taking me.
