I am friendly, laid-back, and funny.

My Self-Summary

So, I love music,movies,TV,anime,comic books,and gaming of all kinds. I'm a big fan of curling up on the couch and watching a show I like, which isn't really hard to find with me. True Blood, Weeds, Dexter, House, Burn Notice, and even reruns of stuff like Scrubs. Although, it's much more enjoyable to curl up with someone else of course :P

I really like going to the movies when I can, but it's been few and far between lately. Usually catching up with stuff either via computer or on demand.

I love music a lot, and it's a huge part of my enjoyment of life. A lot of 90's stuff and current, while still having a bit of love for earlier music. There isn't really a genre I intensely dislike. I can enjoy anything from Mindless Self Indulgence to The Offspring to She Wants Revenge to Citizen Cope to MC Lars. Pretty much runs the gamut. Love going to concerts that I can, when I can.

I'm a gamer, and I'll play just about anything at least a little bit. Not a huge fan of console FPS though, Have had tons of fun with games like Mass Effect and Katamari Damacy all the way to DDR even though it makes me look completely rediculous.

I have one fantastic two year old son who lives with me half the time, which hopefully isn't a dealbreaker before we've even made a deal. Just so that it is said, I'm not looking for someone to be his new mommy, he has one. However, he's non-negotiable and whether you want to explore being friends or more than friends he is always going to be a big part of my life, or our life as the case may be.

Oh, and I'm a Bears fan. Fair warning, there may be pretend violence with any Packers fans.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm currently working as a dispatcher for a large company. I really like the company, it's stable, and there is room for advancement. I'm going back to school at the beginning of the year for my Bachelors in Organisational Leadership to add to my Associates in IT, and I'm really looking forward to it. Although it's going to be tough to juggle fatherhood, work, and school in that order. That's going to be how the majority of my time gets spent in the upcoming months, along with the occasional concert and get together with friends as I can.

I’m really good at

Hrm. Typing? Making a special coca-cola glazed ham? Forgetting peoples names that I don't deal with on a daily basis? I'm pretty good at being the resident tech support geek when someone has a problem. I'm a really good daddy, at least my son thinks so. I'm pretty good at organizing get together with large groups of people. I'm a pretty good judge of music I think? I'm really good at maintaining an even keel by releasing whatever frustration I have as I have it. I'm fairly good at stretching my income as far as I can :P

The first things people usually notice about me

My eyes. Definitely the finest gift from my parents. They are kind of a light green, and sometimes shift hues to more of a greyish blue. Have a really nice pattern to them as well. Truthfully, my eyes are most complimented feature by strangers, that and the occassional "you're funny" remark.

Another would be that I'm pretty much the exact same person here as in real life. A lot of people have somewhat separate identities I guess, but that's really never been the case with me. I was really kind of a shy kid at one point in my life, and I got over it by forcing myself to be as outgoing as I can in social settings. Doesn't keep me from being nervous and slightly spastic at times, but hey, you'll notice it.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Favorite Book? Hrm. Comic Books? Graphic Novels? Actual Novels?

Hard to say. Rant by Chuck Pahlunik was fantastic if I had to pick one, but everything by Chuck is great.

Was a big Cabal and Deadpool fan and read it when I could, but in general most anything Marvel I could tolerate or liked.

Favorite Movies(I'm going to miss a ton): Fight Club, American History X, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Bastards, Poolhall Junkies, Suicide Kings,Rounders,Caddyshack,Good Will Hunting, The Big Lebowski,Office Space,Dazed and Confused,Slap Shot, Clerks, Clerks 2, Chasing Amy, Mallrats, Dogma,Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Superbad, Pineapple Express, Airheads, Waynes World, Waynes World 2, Oceans 11, High Fidelity, The Princess Bride,Fried Green Tomatoes,A League of Their Own, Sleepless in Seattle, Clueless, My Girl, Now and Then, Jerry Maguire,As Good As It Gets, 50 First Dates, Definately, Maybe((I don't really have an aversion to "chick flicks", but seriously Titanic made me want to pop my eyeballs out of my head.))

My favorite music kinda slides around. I'm definately a fan of the punk,pop-pun, indie,indie folk,alternative,rock and roots rock genres. The Offspring is one of my all time favorite bands. Tom Petty may be my favorite solo artist. Now I'll go into list mode where I'm sure I'll miss a few that I'm a huge fan of.

The six things I could never do without

My Son, My Friends, My Family, My Computer, My Sense of Humor, My Ability to Deal with Things.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Absolute nonsense, my next vacation, how it'd be nice to have someone to cuddle up with and watch some TV or a movie, songs I want to hear once I get home, things to teach my son, random strings of consciousness that if unwound could cause people to go insane...that or I was thinking of that Weezer song about the sweater and I'm walking away.

On a typical Friday night I am

Working, then heading home to relax for a few hours before crashing.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Definately that I have a small penis. I don't know. I'm not really a very private person. I'm about as open and honest as people come and if you actually want to ask me a question about anything I'll be happy to answer it.

You should message me if

You think we could have a good time together, you're pretty local, you don't mind being associated with a geek that reads Penny Arcade, you like kids well enough that you don't sneer at them and ask them to fetch your bags, and you won't make fun of me too harshly if you happen to hear me listening to fall out boy or something inbetween some much more "refined" music.
