Hi, Shannon. You can call me TC. I'm 40 and a man, and I'm new here too.
I agree with you - there is a whole lot more than just e. Hope your weekend is going well.

Hello i am a 44 yaear old man that has had epilepsy all my life, It is very hard to find that true person that would accept you with epilepsy. You will find him out there someday and when you do you will know. I was married and the lady i was married to like to do drugs so i had to get a divorce and i want to find that true lady out there , i know i will find her, so you keep it up and you will know when you find that true person.

Hi there! I'm forty-three and had had epilepsy most of my life (Yowsa!)
I enjoy reading and recently read "Think of a Number," "Deeper than the Dead", "Ashes to Ashes", "Dust to Dust", and "61 Hours." I'm also reading"Broke USA: From Pawnshops to Poverty, Inc. : How the Working Became Big Business" and "The Chronic Illness Experience: Embracing the Imperfect Life."
I have 2 college age kids. One is a graduate of SAIT and works in NonDestructive Testing. The other is in his fourth year of his B. Sc. He's majoring in both comp. sc. and mathematics.
I do cross stitch and have been working one out of the "Naughty but Nice Cross Stitch" book:"This isn't an office-it's HELL with fluorescent lighting."I make lots of Looney Tunes designs too, my favorites being Marvin and Taz. I recently made a Winnie the Pooh birth announcement for my niece's baby!
My kids and I have three dogs--one dog lives with me. We had cats too, but they passed on last year.
I listen to lots of radio--fm, satellite, and internet radio. Favorite Channels are Boneyard, Octane, Fungus, the Buzz, Rock Radio 1, and Rock 101. I enjoy lots of concerts and am going to Disturbed/Avenged Sevenfold this Sunday. I also saw Rob Zombie with Alice Cooper this year and will likely see Ozzy in November.
Don't watch much tv but I like watching my hockey.
I work full-time unloading cans, and the best part about my job is most of the people are great! I also have full benefits so that's nice.
So, that's a bit about me.
Take care.
