Hello to all you out there in cyber-space! I enjoy gaming (MMORPGS,tabletop, and video games),watching baseball games (GO MARINERS and D-Backs!) and all sorts of intellectual pursuits. I tend to at least browse through such periodicals as National Geographic, Scientific American and Popular Science. I am at times brought to tears by images from the Hubble Space Telescope. I am also a sucker for trade publications, and have a (*lapsed*) subscription to Sports Illustrated (I am a stats geek, and I love to discuss passer ratings, OBP, and BA. )

I am ashamed to notice how few people have manners in the modern era. This is one reason that I often feel out of sync with this time period. I would have fit in better in Victorian England... with Oscar Wilde, Lily Langtree and their like...

I am loquacious, well-rounded, and mostly harmless

Started school again on April 8th - going for a BS in Psychology at Capella Online University.

Playing Path of Exile.

I am looking (primarily) to make friends. I am not really here for romance (Seeing Someone) but... stranger things have happened (ESPECIALLY to me ^_^)

Gaming (challenge me to a match at TF2!), occasionally singing (we should Karaoke sometime!) and intellectual pursuits of all stripes. I am also good at making friends with animals, making friends with Humans, and (often) staying out of trouble.

I am bad at housework (usually), keeping things to myself, and eating things before others in my household do (*grr*)

My attitude (usually positive), my eyes, my intellect.

The first thing I notice about others is their eyes, then their shoes.

Any short story by Harlan Ellison, most Phillip K. Dick, the Discworld novels, the Amber series and sundry other Roger Zelazny, Flowers For Algernon,Neal Stephenson, Chuck Palhaniuk, the Star Wars novels in moderation, too many other books & stories to mention. Also And The Ass Saw The Angel by Nick Cave and Beautiful Losers by Leonard Cohen. UPDATE: I am a new convert to the stories of Steven Hunter (Blacklight, Time To Hunt). That man can WRITE! Recently, I started reading George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones, and even though I saw (and LOVED) the HBO series, I want to read the books myself.

I will give anything a listen, and decide if I like it or not.

E:

1.) My Sanity
2.) My sense of aesthetics
3.) My friends & extended family
4.) My Laptop
5.) My intellect
6.) My five senses

Quantum mechanics, the nature of existence, food & drink, intellectual pursuits of all sorts... gaming.
I spend a lot of time THINKING, so if you do not, we probably will not get along so well.

...alive. I have no typical nights of any sort, Friday or otherwise.

I <3 'Party Rock Anthem' by LMFAO - I can't sit still when it's playing (but I can't dance my way out of a paper bag, so I just move in my seat...)

You want conversation and friendship that will (hopefully) knock your socks off!

You have similar interests, are a fellow writer/artist/musician/creative type. If you prefer face-to face contact to text messages/e-mails/IM.
