About Me

My name is Adam Williams. I'm a down to earth, fun loving, positive, caring guy. I have an identical twin brother with a personality on par with my own. As of Feb 19, 2009, I've become the proud father of an extraordinarily cute baby girl named Falyn Marie Williams. Since then, I have remained jobless, in order to stay home and take care of my daughter while my fiance goes to work. So far, my attempts to reverse our roles have each ended in failure due to a huge family argument that occurred about 4 years ago.
Looooong story short, without knowing the consequences, i acted out the same way many men have, and i hit a cabinet out of anger for the very first and last time. My mom then dialed 911. The police arrived and she told the officer that she did not want to press charges. She said she wanted to "teach me a lesson", or so she thought. I'll never forget what that officer said to her. He said, "What lesson is there to be learned? You may have just ruined his future. If i were you i would have MADE him fix that cabinet without getting the cops involved". She said, "Well I'm not going to press charges, so he'll be okay."
The cop looked at me and my sister and asked "You guys aren't from Arizona are you?" I told him no. He then told me to leave and stay with a friend for most of the day so he doesn't have to arrest me. I told him to just arrest me because i shouldn't have lost control like that and I'm ashamed of myself.
He then said "It's not that easy here, the state will most likely press charges against you regardless of what your mother says. And if they get you with criminal damage, it'll be very hard for you to live here."
I left, came back home, went to court a few days later. I was charged with BOTH Criminal Damage AND Domestic Violence, class 3 misdemeanors for my first time offense.
I endured 6 months of Domestic Violence Diversion class, where they teach you not to hit or mistreat women and they show you neat techniques for handling anger. I was in class with about 11 other people who's stories were more suited for the class than mine. I can't go into detail due to the privacy policy they have there, but lets just say it was not the best suited place for a guy like me. My counselor tried to have me moved to a different class, but the class I needed was non existent. So I made the best of it. I began dating my fiance while i was attending these classes and my stories of her and I became the center of attention and some sort of good example to look forward to for guys attending the class, lol it was great.
So far, because of my charges, its as if I'm some sort of enemy of the state. Can't get a job, can't get an apartment, i have baby to feed, and diapers are far from cheap.
Other than that, I strive to be the best at anything, and ever since I was 16, I've developed MANY skills, from cashier to phone sales to welding, mining, roping rocks to massage therapy to computer repair, technical support to counseling, plumbing, medical transport, busing tables to waiting, and more. Over the years, I found my best skills were with computers and interacting with people.
