Introduction I'm a soon-to-be divorced, thirty-something father of two beautiful girls. I've recently moved back to NYC from Austin, Texas, and I'm tentatively excited to begin this new chapter in my life. I play drums in a band named The Siren, along with five of my best friends in the world. I am unapologetically liberal, non-religious, and a free thinker. I am also insanely opinionated and frank about any and all topics. Read at your own peril.

The love potion you made tastes terrible. How will you drink it?

I will throw it away and make my own love potion - a Ketel One on the rocks. At least I'll be able to seduce myself.
