I'm outgoing, funny, intellectual, and love good conversations about real topics. I follow politics, local, and world events. I'm still a nerd at heart. I have worked in the film and television industries and love film, theater, art(favorite local artists/used to be locals include Dosa Kim, Michi Meko, NEVER, TOTEM, HENSE and SEVER), reading, video games, comics (yes comics are art! I am reading the Bone graphic novel now), and most importantly MUSIC. I have been in the underground hip hop scene since I came to Atlanta in the early 2000's. I listen to underground hip hop (i.e. good beats, creative/conscientious lyrics, not the shit on the radio. Locally groups like Mighty High Coup, The Wheeler Boys, Collective Efforts, Psyche Origami, Lee Harvey Oswald, Senor Kaos, etc, nationally, Brother Ali, Atmosphere, Immortal Technique, EL-P, etc), dubstep, rap, drum n bass, edm, oldies, jazz, and rock (and a little of everything else too!). I have a good sized record collection, and I go to *a lot* of shows and concerts, *yay* the perks of my job. All my pandora stations eventually (d)evolve into some underground hip hop/trip hop, electronic music station, except Rage Against The Machine, that does not get touched.

I am an avid New England/Boston sports fan (born and raised in Vermont), my pit bull is named after Tom Brady (His name is Brady, not Tom =)). I love meeting new people. I am fiercely loyal to my best friends and family. I am a jokester and love making people laugh.

I love the beach. Some of my best friends live there so I plan on going there a lot this summer. I'm trying to learn how to play golf. I built my own computer, modded my own xbox 360, and I'm even learning how to do non-basic repairs to my car(wtf is an egr valve??? I can now fix that). I'm a zombie/post apocalyptic book/tv/movie fan. You earn bonus points if you already have a plan for when the zombie apocalypse begins (b/c I have a plan already).

I love craft beers and would love to brew my own beer someday. I'm addicted to words with friends and can't start anymore games because I have the max going.

I wear my heart on my sleeve, I'm an open book, if you want to know what I'm thinking or feeling, just ask.

I used to smoke, then I quit for 4 years, then I started again, then I quit again, and I currently am smoking again. If you can't date a guy who may or may not smoke cigarettes (I'm not making any promises about quitting. I would like to one day, but who knows) then I understand and won't be offended b/c you will have already skipped over me!

My dream is to own and run an event production company.

I love my dogs, even though they aren't with me right now (ex has them until I move into a place that allows them). My furkids mean the world to me.

Down to the really important things.

1. I'm an atheist, I'm working on my spirituality/connection to the world and my fellow human beings.

2. I'm liberal/progressive as fuck..If you think Obama is some Kenyan born fascist socialist nazi, I will tell you that I think he's a mainstream republican from the 80's.

3. You cannot change a person, they have to want to change. So if there is a deal breaker in here somewhere, keep walking. I will change when I am ready. I am always growing, but I am human and have my vices/opinions/beliefs.

4. I don't do drama or play games. What I say is what I think and feel. I fall easily (the love kind, not the non coordinated I fall down stairs kind), and I hate being the type of person who has to keep their heart locked up so they won't get hurt. Partially b/c of this I am just looking to date and have a good time and meet new people. I am not trying to jump into a serious relationship. If it happens it happens.

PS I have a tattoo on my arm and a facial piercing. Used to have labret, tongue, and eye brow, now just labret.

I run a promotions and marketing company with a focus on live events and concerts. www.hatchetman.com

I handle street team/experiential marketing for most major venues in town. Want to go to a concert? Let me know.

I'm trying to live life like there's no tomorrow.

Listening, smiling, being attentive, being spontaneous, laughing, coming up with the craziest shit you've ever heard of, which you will gasp at and then laugh your ass off. I'm not an artist, my paintings suck, but I am good at facilitating the dreams of artists and pushing their art.

My height (6'4"), my smile, my sense of humor.... and my last name (Sweet). It's my nickname, everyone calls me it, even my boss. I accepted it long ago, though you earn bonus points if you actually call me by my first name and don't follow the crowd. It's a small gesture that I really appreciate.

Why more people in the south don't use the term Wicked, as in that's WICKED awesome. And also thinking about how I stopped using it and never realized it.

Out and about at an event of some sort.

My friends and I once watched Beerfest 17 days in a row. We have an obsession with the Broken Lizard guys. http://www.brokenlizard.com/

You're honest, don't play games, fun to be around, love to laugh, and can handle a guy with a sense of humor.

Oh and love going to concerts!
