My self-summary
I'm silly and serious, inquisitive and (I hope) interesting.

I like to sit at an outdoor cafe and invent stories about passersby.
Did you see the guilty look he just gave his lovely wife? I bet it's because he's obsessively collected sock monkeys for years but keeps it from his her because of her wretched treatment at the hands of Jane Goodall.

I like exploring new restaurants, cooking new dishes or just making up a twist on an old one. Trying new craft beers, new coffee joints and travelling to new places. Come to it, I like trying old craft beers, frequenting old coffee joints and travelling to old places. Unfortunately I haven't done as much travelling as I'd like. Perhaps with a partner in crime.

A favorite quote:
“I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment.” - Steinbeck

I am looking for a woman who is passionate about what she does whether that be work or play (hopefully both). A quirky, winking sense of humor, innate curiosity and a healthy respect for sarcasm are musts. Someone who enjoys good food and drink, good conversation on a patio, a porch, at a cafe or around a campfire would be just fine with me.
What I’m doing with my life
L-I-V-I-N

I am an urban planner and work in transportation policy. I've been very lucky in the jobs I've had since I went back to graduate school a few years ago for a big career shift. I work to build healthier communities, connect the places people work and live and examine ways to do those things better. It's nice to be a generalist sometimes.

Since moving to Denver last year I've gratefully found a much better balance of work and life. D.C. was great and intellectually diverting but not conducive to active days and weekends. Damn! It's nice to be so near the mountains and plugged into a community where everyone is so active. I'm in love.
The first things people usually notice about me
I thought it was my premature grey hair or deep voice but was recently informed I have "remarkable eyes."
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books: I love to read. Fiction favorites are Steinbeck, Faulkner, Dostoyevsky, Arthur Conan Doyle, Toni Morrison and Herman Hesse. Non-fiction tends toward Bill Bryson, Joe Posnanski, Paul Krugman, histories, public policy blogs, encyclopediae, dictionaries, the backs of cereal boxes, instruction pamphlets, warning signs, tea leaves, I could go on....

Music: I tend toward singer-songwriter (Ray LaMontagne, Paul Simon, Eleni Mandell, the Lumineers, Mumford and Sons and Avett Bros) and the blues (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Howlin' Wolf, Etta James, Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters) but I am really eclectic and will listen to electronica and classical choral music and everything in between.

FOOD! I really enjoy dining out and cooking in. I love farm to table joints, and when I'm cooking I look for organic and local fare. I have lately been on a mediterranean kick (Spanish, Italian, Greek, Lebanese) for a few years but love Thai (I make an amazing Gai Pad Gaprao), Indian and just good old 'Merican grilling out.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
everything under the sun
On a typical Friday night I am
I'm either in or out. Sometimes both!
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
You are the third person on earth who knows I'm the rightful heir to the Russian throne.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 27–43
  • Near me
  • For new friends, long-term dating, activity partners
You should message me if
You like wine, craft beer or good coffee and wide-ranging, often silly conversation over the same.

You think you know why that couple that just passed exchanged that strange glance.
