I am creative, analytical, and generous.

My Self-Summary

Life is meant to be enjoyed. It may not always be easy to enjoy, but that's what it's there for. And I do my best to enjoy it. I try to learn from every experience, every person, every song... all of it. I really enjoy thoughtful conversation, sincere expressions, and chocolate creme Oreos. I enjoy them all more when there's a special woman to indulge with me.

What I’m doing with my life

Well,... rebuilding it. I'm originally from New Orleans, driven from home by Hurrican Katrina. Trying to get my legs under me here in Houston (the entire city gets a heartfelt thanks for their hospitality), but it's tough. Looking for work, considering school, trying to scrape together enough peace of mind to start writing again.

I’m really good at

If I knew that, I'd have a job by now.

The first things people usually notice about me

I guess that would be my height. I'm not that tall (6'3"), but that's usually the first thing they notice.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: From "Superman" to Man, by J.A. Rogers; Before the Mayflower, by Lerone Bennett Jr.

Movies: WAY too many to list here, but a few are Gladiator, Primal Fear, Just Cause, Rosewood, The Usual Suspects... there are many, MANY more.

Music: Again, too many to list. Prince, Tool, Stevie Wonder, Bush, Little Brother, Beethoven, the list goes on.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Way... too... much

On a typical Friday night I am

Back in New Orleans, hitting the open mic at True Brew Caf�. In Houston... looking for something to do, and someone to do it with.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I suffer from terrible bouts of loneliness. Not sure if it's PTSD due to Katrina, being in a new city, losing a very special ladyfriend... whatever the reason, it hurts like hell sometimes.

You should message me if

You have a quirky sense of humor, you enjoy movies, you're opinionated but willing to listen, and you like to cuddle... but we'll get to that much later.
