What a crazy May it's been, left the Sun-Times, found my biological family.  I have a brother from another mother, with the same dad born 1 month apart.  I have another brother from the same mom as me, and a host of relatives, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces and nephews who all seem to really rock. 

I've been on a few interviews, and I would ask for your prayers, and good wishes, as I need to find a way of supporting my little family.  I know there is an opportunity out there, whether it is in Computers, Radio or something completely new.  I know it is chapter 3 in this life of mine. 

For those who haven't heard my elevator speech, let me explain what I mean by Chapter 3.  I grew up in Aurora, IL in the 60's and 70's listening to WLS and WCFL, sleeping with them under my pillow at night.  I was always dreaming of being on the radio in Chicago.  I thought being a DJ would rock, college brought me to Roosevelt University, where I quickly found WRBC, and started working there at the college station.  At the end of my second semester I met a guy at a coffeehouse I was running lights in, who was PD at the radio station in Hammond Ind, Rick Patton.  He hired me and I did overnights, and weekends for 2 and a half years, followed by WCRM Dundee, KCFO Tulsa, WCFL Chicago, and then Y108/Y107.9.  I was doing the morning show, after we were bought by WCKG, and moved downtown, i found myself one morning looking out over Lake Michigan as “Morning Has Broken” was playing, and I realized somewhat tearfully, that I had achieved my dream of mornings in Chicago. 6 months later they changed formats and we were all out. 

I set a new goal as I turned to a career in computer support, with the ultimate goal to help out with the technology at a media company of some sort.  Temp firm Manpower tested my computer skills and combined with my verbal skills put me on a helpdesk, where 6 months later I was made lead, and then moved to Houston to combine the two helpdesks.  I did this at several companies until 5 years ago when I landed at Sun Times Media as Technical Support Manager, achieving my second dream job in life. 

I now have yet to set a new goal, but achieving 2 dreams in one life ain't bad.  I am planning on setting my goal a little higher this time though, once I see the direction things will take.  Open to the possibilities.  So as I said, keep me in your thoughts and prayers.
