Its harder to meet people in Nashville than it is to meet people in Juarez.

I am eccentric. Since writing this profile initially, I have met quite a few people; and figured out a few things. I should get this out of the way right now.

I am far from perfect. I am not your typical definition of niceness, but I am a kind person. I can also be awesome, funny, and the best company you’ve ever had. Strange thoughts seem to be flowing from my mind these days; things like, ‘Christ, I wish people would learn how to take personal responsibility’; and ‘Wouldn’t it be awesome if I wandered off the grid and lived in a hut ’; sometimes things like ‘I really like to use unusual punctuation’

I am at what I feel could be a crossroads of my life. I have typically always been a good student, the responsible mother hen friend. I have paid my bills on time, and generally done everything that is asked for me. I am starting to feel like this system isn’t really serving me well, its serving everyone else well. It’s causing a need, an itch. A feeling, like, hrm, I wish there was a zombie outbreak, so that I could legally swing a shovel at someone’s head. I need a change, a break, a bust out. Maybe it’s a quarter life crises. This has lead to a few new qualifications that I am looking for in an awesome dude. (That’d be you, dear reader/awesome dude) It’d be nice if you didn’t care about other people’s opinions, because I have stopped caring. It’d also be nice if you had your own life and your own set up. I am not really interested in nursing anyone’s old wounds, and I won’t ask you to nurse mine.

I guess the ideal would be a man who can connect, someone relatable. It’s really a very simple request. I will always be honorable about things, and I will never lead anyone on, or convince them that something is different than what it is.

I am working hard to achieve the things that I feel are important. I work, full time, and attend school. I am involved in several projects that are really for me more than anything. I am involved in my friend’s lives, and I have 3 God Children. I find comfort in supporting and helping other people, but my favorite thing to do is make someone laugh.

Bartending! Cracking Jokes, communicating, video games. Coming up with creative ideas, and solving issues through resourcefulness. I can pull someone out of a bad mood, I can support and motivate. I love technology.

I have green eyes, and in El Paso, that’s sometimes rare. I am a morning person, and can be a little too cheerful sometimes. I am an individual, and have been described as eccentric. I would prefer someone to notice my brain before anything else. I will answer almost any question you have for me. I like to keep the mood light, and the good times coming.

Oh books, lovely books. I cant really narrow it down, because anything written with passion, and talent is good for me, but if you made me decide, it'd be Enders Game. You'll catch me reading the LOTR series pretty often, and I do believe the bible is one of the best stories ever written, but I take it for what its worth. I am not overly religious.

Movies, you can get me to watch just about anything, I like campy horror, foreign films, animated (but not disney) movies. Cult classics, but by far my favorite movie is the Wizard of Oz, and the Return to OZ, blame it on good childhood memories.

As for music, you'll catch me listening to anything from drum and bass to classic hip hop, and everything in between. I have a guilty pleasure of listening to some poppy kinda lame music sometimes. As for the death metal,its just about the only thing that you will catch me avoiding.

My current favorite artists are Atmosphere, and Portishead. I dig oldies, like Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Costello, but my favorites are The Temptations, Patsy Cline, or Dusty Springfield.

Food, food is great, and I like to avoid anything that is the norm. You'll find me at off the wall places, holes in the walls, because I generally find they serve the best food. I dont really dig the whole gourmet thing, but I can go for it every once and a while.

hope, laughter, intelligent conversation, my people, an internet connection, and you, mister.

I spend a lot of time thinking about the general state of the world. Battling the idea that people are inherently not good. I am a religious history buff, and I love the mythology behind many religions. I like to watch people; try to see their motivations before they lay them out on the table. I love art. I avoid thinking about work unless I am at work, and I avoid thinking about things that will not really propel me to the level that I am aspiring to be at. I enjoy politics, and I am fascinated by the ideals of free will, and how it affects general life. And music, I love music.

Doing simple things, spending time with the people I care about. I am not really a club goer, but sometimes, you’ll catch me at a bar, kicking back a few. I like to spend my time in places where I can garner knowledge.

When I die, I will not go out quietly. I tend to spend my days living as much as I can, and a fear of mine is to die in my sleep.

Just do it. Stop being a scardy cat.
