Hi, my name is Jessica and I'm a great date!

I love laughing my ass off, eating way too much popcorn at movies, lounging in hammocks (preferably near the ocean), lilacs, hugs, smear, getting lost in new cities & turning it into an adventure. I think flamenco music and anything played with a ukulele is beautiful.

Fun Facts: I have a partially numb chin from jaw surgery, run a business and run ragnar relays. In college I played tennis & was a fastpitch softball catcher in high school. FYI, not all girl softball players are lesbians :) I traveled on Semester at Sea and want to work in a position on the ship in the future (you get to bring a free travel buddy!). For fun I help with a global human rights organization based in San Francisco and sponsor a 3 yr old boy in Brazil (name: Cicero). Went there to meet him & attend a cousin's wedding in May. While traveling I'm reminded of how much I love it & immediately start to plan for another excursion.

Sometimes traveling to foreign countries is difficult for me though b/c I'm allergic to super spicy food. I think it tastes amazing so consistently try to eat it, then I start to sweat and my mouth feels like it's on fire. Paramedics had to come once (pretty embarrassing story!)

I love my family to bits and I'm sort of obsessed with my dog. He's hilarious & awesome and has been called a stoner on numerous occasions because of his laid back attitude. He hiccups, runs in his sleep, and occasionally tries to poop and pee at the same time. It scares him - so he falls over.

Cooking, cleaning and doing laundry. Ha! I love fabric softener - that's where that ends. I do enjoy cooking & love having a clean house :) For real, I'm good at things I put my mind to.

If you see me from the front...smile. From the back...I'll go with butt. Or possibly my amazing earlobes.

Didn't think of the above sentence as offensive in any way until I received this edit message: "WE LIVE IN A WORLD OF DOUBLE STANDARDS, IF A GUY WROTE SOMETHING ABOUT HIS LOOKS, HE WOULD BE WRITTEN OFF AS "COCKY" OR "SELF CENTERED." I AM JUST NOTING A COMMON THEME I AM SEEING IN THIS PART OF MOST WOMEN'S PROFILES, GOOD LUCK REGARDLESS :)" Got the message ... still think it's what people probably notice!

Don't have a typical Friday night.

I like the Gangnam Style song, even though I For Sure thought he was saying "open condom style". Ha, nice 😋

You're awesome!
