Okay, let's try this again - I've got a busy enough life between my bike stuff (trackdays, racing next year, fun rides, my motorcycle club - Curve Unit, etc), work, work, and my animals (and yes, I said work twice on purpose). My interests are widely varied, but I've focused on the motorcycles cause I simply don't have the time and money to pursue everything I enjoy.

Oh, and I went back to darker hair...dunno that it matters, but you never know.

Work and motorcycles. Starting on working towards becoming an amateur road racer, so that's sucking up a lot of my time and money. I'm also attempting to get back into a career that aligns more with my work experience and interests, but that also pays a semi-decent wage (gotta support those hobbies somehow).

...realizing I'm not very good at a lot of things. Having a perfectionist streak doesn't help, since I'm my own worst critic. But, I enjoy my life, am doing my best to live it the way I want, and enjoy the ride!

That they don't notice me. I don't stand out in a crowd, but I'm a deep thinker. If I find an intellectual match, I connect immediately with someone, but it seems like my tendency to blend in makes it difficult to find those people. I'm not a social outcast/nerdy type though, either...just an introvert by nature. In a group/around people I know I'm actually pretty outgoing.

Sci-fi books, fantasy books (Dune series, Harry Potter, Inheritance, etc).

Movies I have pretty varied tastes, like anything from action to thriller to the occasional chic flick.

I just like food...kinda wished I liked it a little less lol!

My bike is about it...

Theoretical and quantum physics; philosophy; personality types

Hanging out at home playing video games or watching TV, wishing I was out having a beer with friends - but most of those gatherings are on Wednesday nights :)

I struggle to make acquaintances into friends...part of why I'm even doing this. I get along with people well, but just can't seem to get from chatting at work to having a beer afterwards.

We've got enough in common to have stuff to actually talk about, you're somewhat fit (don't need to be a show stopper, but I am into fitness and expect similar out of a partner), or you're looking for a friend. I do need some people to just hang out with, get together for a beer after work, grab coffee and discuss the latest findings at CERN or what happened at MotoGP or AFM. If something clicks, well, play that by ear if it happens.
