I am wry, active, and introspective.

My Self-Summary

A couple of years ago, in Switzerland, I had an hour-long conversation with a guy from Bosnia, in German. Neither of us spoke German particularly well, and both of us were mildly drunk, so surprisingly little information got across, and what we did communicate was pretty banal.



I'm fairly proud of that conversation, for whatever reason. I don't know if that's any more revealing of my character than the standard list of adjectives is, but it's what I've got.

What I’m doing with my life

You know. Working, hanging out with friends, trying to cram in all the activities that we'd all like to do, but don't have time for. The usual.

Er, I mean, all that plus taking long walks on the beach as I cogitate my prospective cure for cancer, with only occasional breaks to save kittens from riptides, or whatever.

I’m really good at

I am eerily proficient at Slaps. You know, the game where two people hold their hands in front of each other and try to slap the back of each other's wrists? High school guy thing? I rock at that. If there were an Olympic event, I think I could pull at least a silver.

The first things people usually notice about me

I've been told that my eyes are really nice. Usually by somewhat scary men.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

a. The Confusion (N. Stephenson), Declare (T. Powers)


b. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, pretty much anything by M. Night Shyamalan


c. Punk, Electronica


d. Mexican

The six things I could never do without

Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.

On a typical Friday night I am

I actually like dancing. This should not be taken to imply that I'm a good dancer.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

So you know the movie Love, Actually? Cheezy British romantic comedy? Man, I love that movie. I've seen it like three times.

You should message me if

You really like to discuss the little-understood genre of philosophical limericks. Come on, this is a dating site. We all know why we message each other.
