Ahh, the beloved "getting to know you" section. Okay, I like conversations that involve a lot of laughter, and shared interests. I like to either be the one made to laugh, or making others laugh. In either event, I despise long akward silences, and people who can't keep up their end of the conversation. I've not been a perfect angel, and I'm still paying for those lapses in judgement. So I guess I'd like to meet someone in need of a nice guy, with a (barely) suppressed bad-boy side. Just call me Popeye--I am what I am.

I am witty, smartass, and brown

Right now I'm in transition. I'm in the process of starting over, and I'm feeling a little lost. But as my tattoo says: "dum spiro spero." Translation: "as I breathe, I hope."

Making people laugh. I'm good at dancing, as long as you're not looking for any specific moves or choreography. I'm good at public speaking--I worked part time as a DJ over the summer.

My smile or my laugh. Since I'm usually smiling or laughing, it's not a tough observation to make. That also includes my sense of humor. My humor is mostly on the smartass side, but not the cutting kind. I try to be a little sensitive with people's personal limits.

(A) anything by E. Lynn Harris; anything by Stephen King; anything by Augusten Burroughs; The Buddha of Suburbia

(B) The Color Purple, Imitation of Life, The Doom Generation, Dodgeball, Old School, Kids, Rent, Tales of the City, The Buddha of Suburbia, the Harry Potter movies, Man of La Mancha.

(C) Hip Hop, R&B, raggae, Top 40, Old School (Marvin Gaye, Luther Vandross, Otis Redding), world music

(D) LATIN FOOD--I cannot stress that enough-- I love latin food! Soul food, Cajun cookin', Italian. Pretty much any food with a robust taste, that comes from a culture known for celebrating life.

My family (especially Jackie and the Colonel), my friends, computer access, my car (her name is Eva), la mota (check my pics, if you don't know what that is), and porn (just being honest).

My future, and what I want for it.

God only knows.

I talk to myself in Spanish.

...you're an outgoing person, who loves to laugh. You should message me if you like PBS reruns of old Brit-coms; hard-shelled tacos filled with greasy chicken (I can't cook that, but I know where we can get some good ones...); random drives through town to go people-watching. You should message me if you've looked at my pics, you've read my entire profile, and you haven't been scared off yet.
