Hey Its Me!

ME

Hey everybody! Whats up.

Hey This is Neal, aka NJoeMan, Joe, Pauly, Chubby, Cornealius, nealium, Neon, etc., but you probably already knew that. I'm just rebuilding my site right now, so bear with me. So, in case you dont know, I'll just tell you some basic stuff about me. I was born in Downers Grove on June 13, 1982 at Good Sams. Thats my family up there at my high school graduation: my little little sister Alyssa, my mom Gina, my dad Pat, and my little sister Angie. I moved around alot when I was young, living in Naperville, Bolingbrook, Rolling Meadows, Arlington Heights, and Glen Ellyn, before moving to Wisconsin when I was in 6th grade. I lived in Sun Prairie, Wi, until the end of freshman year...then I came back to IL to repeat the moving cycle...Downers Grove, Woodridge, and finally Bolingbrook, where I've been for the past 4 years.
Aside from Sun Prairie and Glen Ellyn, most of the major turning points in my life happened when I moved to Bolingbrook. My first job was as a pool attendant for one summer, but it was my second job, a crewleader at Showplace 12, that would really change my life. Showplace is where I met some of the most interesting, unique, and talented people I have ever known, and where I learned many things about people and life for the first time. The first day I started as Crewleader, the first person I had to train was this punk kid named Jimmy Cushing "Bitch put a whole in my shake". He turned out to be one of the most interesting and fun person I have ever hung out with. Through the internet, filling out surveys, I got to meet one of the biggest influences of my life, Lindsay Shadrick "Dance Neal, Dance". In one or two years, she taught me more about life than I had learned in ten years of school. I also met a smart, funny girl, Kelly Valla "It's Neuqua. With two U's!". Kelly has a server Dave Matthews addiction and needs help. The other Neuqua-er I got to know was as into music as I was which was really cool, John McCauly. Near the end of Showplace, I really got to know a kind of quiet, yet amazingly talented girl, Danielle Ruzcik, and two funny, hacker geniuses, Dave and Randy. Other people that I am very glad to have met there were Mike Weiner, Dan Krug, Gilbert, Janna, Shannon, Tony Batha, Dale, Mike Sullivan, CJ, DL, Jim, Craig, Andrew, Josh(PK), Jackie, Nicole B., Nicole F., John, Bill L., Bill A., and sooooo many more!

Also at Showplace, I had my first serrious relationship, with Veronica Nerone. Although we dont talk anymore, she taught me a lot about who I am, and I honestly wish her the best. After me and Veronica broke up, I became very close with her friend Amy Pidgeon. We had a lot in common, and after facing many conflicting issues, we eventually realized that we were meant to be together. We have been together a year on March 30th, 2002, and she is the best thing thats ever happened to me.
