Arkie - a term used to define a native Arkansan.
Lad - a man or boy.
An Arkielad - well that's me. I'm selfish and considerate, loving and cruel, and every other thing you can think of that contradicts each other which makes life that much more entertaining.
This blog is about my journey, the journey that took me from a small southern town in Arkansas to the huge metropolitan area of Chicago. Sometimes I'm having the time of my life, other times, I'm scared and in way over my head. Regardless though, I always try to live a happy, healthy life.
I invite you to join me as I write what I know, regardless of whatever that might be. Hopefully, you will take something away from your experience with me, because I know I will.
