Approximately 26.5 years prior to this writing, I was born in the lovely Concord Hospital (pronounced conquered for you out of staters. Weird pronunciation for something that means harmony, eh?). I have accomplished so very much in that amount of time, most of which was complete by the age of 2. Anyway, I am told I lived in Somersworth and Derry and Londonderry and finally Litchfield during my youth. I only remember the last two towns. My parents were split before I can remember and I grew up living with dear "old" dad. During this time I learned (and mostly forgot) how to talk and walk. I also attended Matthew Thornton School for a year, followed by attending and subsequently graduating from Griffin, Litchfield Middle School, Manchester Memorial High School and the oh so prestigous University of New Hampshire. I learned to love ice cream and that has been the biggest disaster of my whole life.
