My self-summary
Edit: Since it has come up as an issue for others, I will include this information to save time. I used to be married and am no longer. I prefer to keep my relationships open until an exclusivity discussion has taken place (usually after a few weeks/months). I am an analytical (or anal) person (as it says in the first line of my profile). Now then, let's move on. :)

I am a nerd at heart with a natural engineer's mindset - analytical, logical, and terse. I have listened to, danced to, played, and loved music since I was a child. The dance of my people is the traditional "Drunk White Girl" (I'm not impressive on the dance floor, but, boy, do I have fun). I played trombone in a ska band for about five years. I have since developed a love for skydiving. I've been jumping out of planes for two years, have a little over 200 jumps, and hold a USPA Instructional Rating as a skydiving Coach.

I'm quirky insofar as I love adding a bit of flair to my wardrobe (Purple pink and orange socks? Yes. Lavender button down with red cords? Check).

I'm nerdy in that I love video games, sci-fi books/movies/tv, engineering, analysis/analytics, disaster recovery, and seeing where and how a system can fail.

When pressed to perform, I have a very distinct lack of shame. At a gathering, I'm either a social butterfly, or I'm socializing with the dog.

I love meeting new and interesting people, but I tend to keep a small circle of really close friends who are near and dear to my heart. I am considerate, reliable, and thoughtful of others.

I've always wanted to get a tattoo, but I have a completely irrational phobia of needles that I'm trying to get over.
What I’m doing with my life
Working full time at OU in IT, skydiving part-time, and looking at going back to school for a higher-level engineering degree. My current pipe dream is earning a PhD in Computational Fluid Dynamics while being a professional skydiver. One must have dreams!

Desperately trying to not let this happen: http://i.imgur.com/R16V9.gif
I’m really good at
Listening and viewing things from other's perspectives besides my own.

I am a problem solver at heart, and my analytical mind is a great boon.

I thoroughly enjoy cooking but rarely get the opportunity. My roommate's house has a rather small kitchen that she tends to monopolize. =)

Opening myself to new experiences.
The first things people usually notice about me
How my brown-orange eyes sparkle in the sun, my smile, or my (sometimes weird) fashion sense.

How I'm not afraid to put myself into an intense conversation.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food

Movies: Fight Club, The Big Lebowski, Grave of the Fireflies, Princess Mononoke, Mean Girls (yep)

Video Games

Food: Thai food and sushi. It's an expensive habit. I can get down on anything from Taco Bueno or Pizza Shuttle all the way up to fancy wining and dining; It depends entirely on my mood and how sore my wallet is.
The six things I could never do without
The internet
Music
"Me time"
Skydiving
Novelty
My beard
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Skydiving, love, life, philosophy, and difficult questions that ultimately don't have black and white answers (morality, abortion, adoption, wealth inequality).

How I got where I am, and how I can get to where I want to be.
On a typical Friday night I am
Jumping out of planes and hanging out at the dropzone with my friends. If the weather's crap, I'm either hanging out with friends in town, going to a local venue for a show, or I'm playing video games/on reddit/on the internet and being anti-social.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I have an aversion to risk, but I have begun to revel in the fear...

I once played a show with Alice Cooper.

You are a curious, intelligent adult. You don't need to know what you want to be when you grow up, but you do need to have SOMETHING going on in your life.

Also, if you know who put the ram in the rama lama ding dong.
