I'm a bit of an adventurer, always looking for something new, fun and exciting to do. It would not be out of character for me to book a random flight to London just for the weekend.

I'm serious when I need to be, but the majority of my time is spent joking around. I love making people laugh.

Also, I'm very curious about almost everything and I love people who are passionate about their careers or hobbies! I think intelligence is a huge turn on, and I love it when somebody can teach me something new.

I'm a software geek. My job involves a fair amount of travel, and takes me to all kinds of interesting places. I love it, but my cats make me feel guilty for being away so frequently--I compensate by feeding them whenever they miao for food, which is often and probably the reason why they're getting fat :( poor kitties...

I'm a pretty good judge of character, and I can't help but size people up when I meet them. This makes me a fairly decent poker player.

this question is silly.

Books

I read a lot. I'm a programmer, but I prefer my books in dead tree format.

I was most likely going to study Computer Science in college, but then I read Allan Bloom's The Closing of the American Mind and studied Philosophy at 3 different colleges before dropping out.

But, yeah, definitely message me if you've read Allan Bloom's book, it changed my life!

Music

I like all sorts of music, and love discovering new artists. Just a few favs:

The Doors, Tool, Pink Floyd, Mobb Deep, Del the funky homosapien, Metallica, The Who, Radiohead, The Cure, Rage Against the Machine, System of a Down, The Bad Plus, Tony Williams, Schoolboy Q, Fiona Apple

TV, etc

The Wire is the best series ever.

Oh, and Breaking Bad is boring, sorry.

Food

I can be an adventurous eater, while at the same time there are certain restaurants I go to and order the same thing every time.

I don't like condiments and can't stand bottled salad dressing.

* books
* computer
* iPhone
* adorable animals
* beer
* cigarettes

I know that last one is a turn off for a lot of you, but I am a smoker. Just trying to keep it real, and if its a deal breaker for you, then I'm sorry.

I think about a lot of things...

Depends on what city/country I'm in, but when I'm at home I can typically be found:

* out getting dinner and drinks with friends
* at home working on a side project
* smoking cigarettes and drinking by myself with the lights out having a Toolgasm (bonus points if you know exactly what I'm talking about)

I'm afraid of bugs.

you love adventures, but also appreciate some good down time; you're looking for a partner in crime; you're curious and passionate.

I'd like to think I'm pretty approachable, but I'll admit that it can sometimes feel awkward messaging somebody on here. Basically, if you think we'd get along, even just a short "hello" will suffice. We can take it from there. :)
