Hello, my name is Jim Caruthers. I am 47, tired of being unemployed, and am enrolled in college again, in the accounting/business field. I have been a Graphic Designer and still freelance, but the field is highly competetive and I desire to move on.
I have a lovely wife, who I met doing a play in Aloha, OR. Both of us being actors, we had a medieval wedding and had our family dress up. My father in law knighted me; and we had our pastor dress as a cardinal and recite the funny speech from The Princess Bride. We have been married seven years, and have 2 extremely healthy and active boys.
My likes are football (especially this time of year), reading (spy novels), cooking, acting, being silly, being sarcastic, music (of almost any kind), art, poetry (the kind that doesn't rhyme), playing guitar, singing in my car, going to the beach and playing with my kids. I absolutely love coffee and have a fetish for arranging and rearranging things. I also love to organize things. And I am an Asian Buffet junkie!
Oh, boy! Now the fun part! I happen to be one of those weird people who has a long list of specific, and bizarre dislikes. Rent the movie High Strung and observe Steve Oedekirk's character: he is me! I dislike grocery shopping (except at night when all the people are gone), people who don't know where they are going on the roads, people who "camp out" at places I need to be (once at Safeway-bane of my existence-a lady took five minutes to pick a pound of hamburger, and it was the last thing on my list).
The rest of my dislikes are loud noises, fake people, warm coffee, warm baths, warm hot tubs, non alcoholic wine (for pete's sake, just drink grape juice!), food that doesn't look like the picture, going to my bank and having them treat me like they are doing me a favor, pushy salesmen, commercials that are 3 times louder than t
he show, retarded beer commercials while I am watching sports, overcrowded theme parks, overcrowded anything and liver. And the king of all my dislikes, the thing I just hate the 3 headed bejesus out of is hot weather. And I consider anything over 75 hot!I am very happy to be taking this class because I have always thought of myself as a writer, have even written a novel, and love to write. Maybe from now on when I think about what I want to be when I grow up, I will remember this.
