He didn't want to do that, but sacrifice. So he was teaching me a lesson about sacrifice without even teaching me anything. He just did it. You know, I was like, I knew he loved being an F-16 mechanic, but he was doing this recruiting job so we could stay there and visit. I was always at my grandparents' house in Pebble Beach, the best memories.

But then I was also in this school with different crowds of people and gangs and different stuff going on. And same thing, trying to fit in with somebody, you know. Now you're a teenager and it gets even harsher, right, trying to fit in. And so, you know, I made some friends. Got one of those friends I still keep in touch with, Filipino guy, good friend of mine.

We don't talk too often, but he's off living his life, but I think about him a lot. And yeah, then I sort of started to attach where I'm from to there. So when people say where you're from, I don't have time to explain all that other stuff. I go, I went to high school there. I graduated there. You know, I'm from Monterey, California. And it was my favorite memory, my favorite place.

So, you know, my dad used to have tickets for recruits to go watch Giants games in San Francisco, and they never took them up on it, so we were always going to watch games. So that's how I became a Giants fan. Those games were awesome. I loved going and eating popcorn and ice cream and watching baseball games. But I realized later on,

after my whole career was over, that the original reason 9-11 happened. So my parents moved one more time after that. It was their last station before they retired and they ended up back to North Carolina. So I stayed when they moved. I tried to live off on my own. I was bouncing around people's houses, trying to knock out some community college classes. But really, I was just fucking around.

And so, you know, my grandparents sensed that in me and my grandmother really cried for me one day and was like, you're not good here, you know? And I was getting sick all the time and she was taking care of me. So she said, you should go back home for a couple of years. And I was like, okay, so. Went back to North Carolina for a couple years.

Felt better because I was living at home again, you know? And then 9-11 happened when I was about 19.
