My self-summary
Well hello there.
Please allow me to introduce myself. I'm Drew, and I'm:
the owner of a wonderful dog;
an avid reader of various genre of books;
a decent, although biased, cook;
an editor and word processor of textbooks;
a fun, albeit busy, roommate;
an ENTP;
and a fairly outspoken nerd (though in this day and age, who isn't?).
What I’m doing with my life
I am a graduate from the University of Florida's English department.

Presently I work as a proofreader/word processor at a local textbook publication company. We produce study materials for various accounting tests (CMA, CPA, EA, RTRP, etc.) as well as avaition material.

I also have my teaching certificate (English 9-12), but woefully I've yet to find an open teaching position within my commuting distance.

On top of those, I'm Dungeon Mastering for two D&D campaigns for many of my friends, leading a squad of "humans" for UF's Human Vs Zombie game (it's like tag, but with nerf guns), and attempting to improve my league of legend standings.
I’m really good at
I love to make people laugh, and as far as I can tell I do a good job at it.

I'm also quite good at explaining things, but I have been told my explanations can be a little overwhelming at times. Thus, I'm still learning how to hold back my passion to a reasonable level.

I was a dog trainer for around 2 years, and presumably I did a very good job if my clients approval is any indication.

I'm also good at various video games, but as I have a few friends who play professionally I'm not a great judge as to my skill level.
The first things people usually notice about me
My eyes. I'm not trying to brag, it is just that most people I meet compliment my eyes rather quickly. I personally think they're fairly normal, but I hear it a lot.

Though if I'm out with my friends they will likely notice our sense of humor long before they're close enough to make out any physical details (we can be a tad loud).
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
This is by no means an all inclusive list, but here it goes:

Authors-Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, John Green, Robert Jordan, Scott Westerfeld, J.K. Rowling, Asimov, Mcguire, O'Malley, Wells, Orwell, and Austen.

Television- Avatar, Doctor Who, Futurama, Young Justice, Game of Thrones, Arrow, HIMYM, and a list of ever-expanding anime.

Movies- Batman, Mary Poppins, Notting Hill, Definitely Maybe, Blade Runner, District 9, Moonrise Kingdom, Fried Green Tomatoes, and The Producers.

Food- I eat an excessive amount of pasta.

Games- League of Legends, Mass Effect, Journey, Dragon Age, Civ, Skyrim, and Portal.
The six things I could never do without
In no particular order:

1. Jasper (My Dog)
2. The Internet
3. Good Stories
4. My Excelllent Support Structure
5. Pineapple
6. Warm Blankets
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Where I should move in the next few years.

If I should pursue teaching, stay in publishing, become a bartender, or go back to university.

Whether or not I'm content, and if I'm happy with being content.

How to: (Insert various activity)

The best way to explain my lifestyle choices to my family, specifically my niece and nephew when they get older.
On a typical Friday night I am
On a typical weekend I will play D&D, go out for lunch with friends, go for a long walk with my partner and my dog, play magic the gathering, watch horror movies with friends, and stay up far too late.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Not really private, but figured this is the best place for this.

I'm in a polyamorous relationship.
Polyamory

What I'm looking for is another serious partner. Not a girl for my current SO and I, not an FWB, and not a threesome. Love is not a finite resource.

Have questions, ask or go to http://www.xeromag.com/fvpoly.html for information, or just ask (seriously, I love talking about it).

I'm also bi-sexual, but am not actively pursuing any male relationships at the moment.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 20–26
  • Located anywhere
  • For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating, long-distance penpals
You should message me if
You want to, even it's is just to say "Hello" (I realize it can be daunting to come up with a witty introduction with so little to go off of at times)

I'm a fairly open book, and I enjoy discussing the choices I've made with my life. While I am looking for potential dates, I'm also content to just chat with people.
