I am loud, confident, and smart.

My Self-Summary

I'm a sucker for anyone with a quick wit and would love to meet people that can make me laugh. I think my best memories were spent laughing, drinking and carrying on with the people I love. I tend to have a certain sarcasm about myself and I've been known to come across a little bit of a loudmouth but I swear, I really am a nice person! I dig a solid debate, I love movies, primarily horror, thriller and comedies and I'm always up for a night out with friends or in making dinner and watching movies. I am very confident in myself and I like people with the same. Lack of ability to think you're worth another person's time is about the biggest turn off there is.

I'm not looking for sex, nor am I looking for anything inherently short term. I've probably hidden being a romantic pretty well but I want a genuine partner that has a strong personality and can still make me a priority and knows that romance isn't dead.

What I’m doing with my life

I was a body piercer for three-ish years, I currently do ultrasounds at a local medical facility which has nothing to do with my having gotten my BA in Criminal Justice in 2006. Now I'm just focusing on getting my money in order so I can go back to school for sonography.

I’m really good at

I make a solid dinner and I have a sharp wit. The best nights I've ever had are in with friends cooking dinner, drinking and carrying on with the people I love and I'm good with all that. I love doing a lot of things I'm bad at, though I'm not sure what that counts for. I'm terrible at volleyball, warcraft, and dancing but I like doing those things anyway. I'm prone toward obnoxious singing in my car but there's debate as to whether I'm good at it.

The first things people usually notice about me

Unfortunately, though my own fault, most people catch the tattoos first. It's lead to a series of conversations I didn't want to have at two a.m. at the grocery store, but that's the bed I made.

Black coffee
Sarcasm and shit-talking
Open-toed heels
Dark comedy films
Long, possibly aimless drives

On a typical Friday night I am

With friends in front of a movie or driving to towns we haven't been to in order to find pubs we haven't been to at which we will debate zombie survival plans.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I can yodel.

....I've never seen the end of The Godfather. Really.

You should message me if

You're into saying what you mean and not what you think suits the person you're around. I like people that can have a solid debate and punchy conversation without taking it to be a fight, and I'm a sucker for a man in a button down or a suit. If you have a quick wit and can keep a laugh about yourself I'd love to hear from you, and it helps if you're looking for something more serious.

I'm not a fan of the game playing and the guess-what-I'm-thinking nonsense. Just say how you feel and what's on your mind and be genuine about it when you're doing it. What I'm looking for is the kind of person who is able to have ridiculous weekends of debauchery, healthy love for sarcasm and can go rounds with me on it, and still understands my need to have a man who will kiss me on the forehead in the middle of the night because he thinks it won't wake me up.
