My self-summary Propose an edit
Hi! My name is Allen. Let's play a game... Here is a quick summary of what my high matches seem to have in their profiles:
- The word 'smart-ass' or 'bad-ass' (hyphen optional).
- Something about water.
- Some mention of the color blue. Or cerulean, maybe teal.
- Some comment about poly-ness.
- Something gypsy
or pirate
related.
- The word 'play,'
'enjoy' or
just-plain 'fun.'
This is a dating website, but I'm not really the dating type. For goodness sake, I'm 44 years old! I'm more the carousing type, with earlobe noshing as an occasional sequela of the getting-to-know-you-process.
And if you're a high match for me, you probably don't have a problem with this.
You can learn a great deal more about me over on tribe:
http://people.tribe.net/doctorturvy
...from pictures and blog entries. Many of the blog entries are stories, half of which I created myself; the old, long ones are pretty good. And if you dig through my pictures you might find the artsy sepia tone photo of my bare backside, which I'm not at all shy about showing off.
And here's a link to my spiffy okc test:
http://www.okcupid.com/tests/reincarnation-placement-exam
I check out my stalkers, and I stalk them back. See? You got my attention, even before you found out whether you wanted it.
Oh yeah, this is supposed to be a self-summary. Here's my spin on the usual rhetoric:
I love people. I love to play. I can be a real smart-ass, but I am compassionate, and nobody's fool.
I am the last of the right-brained techie nerds. I write software, and I do it well. I own a giant robot, a small forest and a genuine treasure chest.
I handle my e-mail in a little sacred room, on a table made from a door hand-carved in Afghanistan. The table sits over a burgundy Persian carpet.
I love colored lights, especially blue ones; they help you see ordinary things in extraordinary ways. I am part Irish, part Cherokee, part Bohemian and part mutt. I like to travel. I know the way to Black Rock City, but wish to forsake my burner cred because it's just turned into a giant frat party with RVs. I do not have cable TV. I give away books when I am finished with them. I give away most of the mead I brew. I rarely eat critters with a brain larger than my thumbnail. I am a charter member of the Society for the Preservation of the Adverb; and yet I regularly indulge in semicolon abuse.
My hair changes color frequently. I once dyed my eyebrows blue, but discontinued because it was scaring kids.
But enough about me... Now, let's talk about what I'm doing with my life.
What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit
My life is stable and happy. I am sharing my household with Raven,
and am blessed with a solid, small circle of intimate friends.
Actually my life might be a little too stable, lately; I'd like to
meet more people with whom to share mischief, adventure, opportunities and
especially a tribal
connection.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit
If you asked me this question every day, you would get a different
answer every day.
1=Human contact in any/all of its myriad forms.
2=A good balance of organization and uncertainty.

4=Shiny tools; levers preferred to inclined planes.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit
...why so many people who match me on OKCupid have some kind of
blue motif thing
going on.
...why I failed to get "Captain Jack Sparrow" on the Which Johnny
Depp Character RU Test.
On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit
...either out to dinner with my kids, or blowing off a stressful
work week with friends.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit
Being in control scares the s**t out of me; I enjoy it immensely.
You should message me if Propose an edit
...if you simply want companionship... if you are part
of a like-minded tribe, or want to be... if you are
intimately human, have a good spirit and would like to share it.
Or, if you're ready to go on a spontaneous weekend road trip.
For goodness, sake, don't use that 'woo' button on me! But I do
love getting e-mail, and I like to write back. So... go for it!
