I am skeptical, curious, and down.

My Self-Summary

I make an effort to not take myself too seriously and be foolish and young--wasted too many years being an overly serious kid. That said, most would probably say that I don't get into any real trouble, and am more mature than my age. My mom is convinced I'm an "old soul"--since I don't believe in souls, I'm not sure exactly what that means.

My friends think I'm very funny.

I think human beings are social animals, and that loved ones and hanging out should always be a high priority.

And I love Ultimate.

What I’m doing with my life

9-5in', puddle dodging, friend recruiting.

As for career goals and big picture stuff--I'm taking life as it comes, grad school isn't out of the question, and I might like to go to law school someday, or even become a doctor of philosophy in philosophy, but right now I just want to take some time to live a fairly simple life and log some life experience.

I really wish I were spending more time outside--I'm dying to go for a good hike and/or camping.

I’m really good at

Logic
Empathy
Wit
Being messy
Traveling
Stir Fry
Reading people and situations
Being game
Beer Pong
Flip Cup

Not so good at:
Neatness
Rising early
Singing
backhand hits/throws
Upper Level Mathematics
Being fawned over
Rock Climbing
Soccer

The first things people usually notice about me

When I was about 15, an old man in West Virginia told me my handshake is too firm for a woman.

The six things I could never do without

In increasingly facetious order:

Friends

Ability to Read

Passport
Beer and Reefer*
Rice
Internet*

*I have done without these things, I didn't die.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

how to build a life here, ethnographies, humor, food, gender, sexuality, sustainability, priorities, standards of pathology, friends elsewhere, traveling, missing school.

Remember when OKC "visitors" were called "stalkers"? -- I miss the honesty.

On a typical Friday night I am

watching Boy Meets World and Hangin' With Mr Cooper.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

My first compact disc as a child was Brian White-- I wasn't even cool enough to own an Ace of Base tape.

You should message me if

You want to chat and maybe have a friendly hang out.

You know how to play Euchre.
