Welcome Cory! As someone who's known you for a long time, I'm really excited to see your life and everything you share here!
As an aside, since I know you like playing music (and I mentioned you in a comment in the post), you might enjoy this. It's an event called OpenMic for Steemians who play music, it seems really cool, check it out!
