Trying to balance work with fun, dating with friends, healthy living with...not so healthy living. I'm full of contradictions.

I work long hours at a bank. It kinda sucks sometimes. So when the weekend comes around, I like to let loose. Party hard.

Currently on a mission to go to as many concerts and music festivals as possible before the season ends. I'm a big fan of music - undoubtedly related to my upbringing which involved extensive training in classical piano.

Dancing to the beat, cooking latkes and eggs, drinking in excess and maintaining basic functionality, remembering random things that could come up in trivia, writing treatises and theses, skiing, eating in excess and maintaining basic functionality, and going no-hands in the subway. And I've got perfect pitch.

Last Halloween, a girl told me I have hair like Jimmy Neutron and I should have been that instead of Don Draper.
Another time a homeless woman in New Orleans said I was a beautiful human being.

What I'll be doing with my life a few years down the road;
when I'll meet that special person who I can share my life with;
travelling the globe;
what my next meal will be;
philosophy, psychology and religion;
financial news & markets;
spending too much money;
my next vacation

Either too tired and relaxing at home with a glass of wine & a book/movie;
Or I'm convinced to go out drinking until the sun comes up

That I'm not really a fan of football?
Oh, and even though I've been on a plane like a hundred times, I still get ridiculously nervous during takeoff/landing/turbulence. I watched the movie Alive at way too young an age.

You think we could get along, or if we have at least a couple things in common.
Or, if you're bored at work/school/home/whatever and need a distraction
