I am snarky, humor cultivating, and good company.

My Self-Summary

As part of a good year in attempting new things, I'm just getting the lay of the land in my place and a new town. I'd struggle to get to 100 characters in my describing my thoughts on dating so in essence, I'll say I'm looking for the new and different and, paramountly, shaking things up. I'm generally a tad shy, but getting less so by the day. I like to think I'm good company and delight in and appreciate that in others. So far, I've managed forays into baking (corn muffins) and picture hanging (nailing nails). More of these to come.

I’m really good at

appreciating word choice, remembering A LOT of details, throwing objects (non-maliciously, like a softball), brainstorming Halloween costumes, wielding a hot glue gun.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: David Sedaris' body of work, "Sex Drugs and Cocoa Puffs,"the odd high school assigned reading, working on improving my book repertoire.

Movies: A League of Their Own, Life is Beautiful, Shawshank Redemption

Music: Beatles and all ancillary productions, Elvis Perkins, David Bowie. XRT has pretty great and informative for me to learn about new bands (not paid to write that). I have an eye toward learning more of music of the now.

Food: Mashed potatoes, pot stickers and caramel apples (in season). I just recently started eating vegetables willingly. Let me know if you have any good vegetable preparation suggestions.

The six things I could never do without

The expected intangibles of family and friends. I wouldn't want to live in a world without dogs or craft supply stores either.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

New ways to acceptance and peaceful tolerance. Trying to have patience for loud talkers and slow walkers.

On a typical Friday night I am

Relying on usual haunts with good friends, or being lured to different parts of the city for shows or events of interest. In keeping with the rest of my profile, I'm looking to shake this aspect of life up too. There's a lot more stuff out there to get into and appreciate than I've previously thought. That goes for Friday nights and everything.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I chose "dislikes cats" in my details but I am much more allergic than hateful toward cats. I respect their right to exist, I just can't touch them.

You should message me if

You want to tell me about your Halloween costume.
