well, i'm a pretty relaxed guy, and i'm very content with my life the way it is right now. i've got a great family whom i love very much and the greatest group of friends a person could ask for. i'm definitely not a homebody. i like to be out and about, but still enjoy streching out on the couch with a good book, sitting back and painting or drawing. i love music. i play piano and guitar, both for fun and with my band, three of the coolest cats i know, and much of my time is split between playing shows and working. which i do far too much of but still enjoy (stressful as it may be at times). but to stop rambling and get to point, i'm looking for someone who has a similar outlook on life. i'm very independent and not interested in games or drama but rather something genuine. i'd like someone to be there, to share intimate moments, and laugh with. so if this intrigues you, i'm a friendly guy. say hello!

for the time being i'm working for the man Chuck Biscuit to pay the rent. i just singed a lease on a new place, which i love. and other than that i'm usually reading, relaxing, hanging with friends, living life, and so on.

memorizing useless data haha! i'm quite the masterful trivial pursuit contestant. and even if it's not necessarily a practical talent, i can tell you that for every one human being there are a million ants (seriously), that both princess diana and mother teresa died within a year of meeting each other for the first time (in fact they both died less than a week apart), and that the longest word in the dictionary is antidisestablishmentarianism (although the word i think is the most fun is perspicaciousness, which i so rarely am able to use. in fact, i wrote this entire paragraph just so i could use it in a sentence).... so hopefully i'm not the only one who finds the nerd factor attractive.

i'm really confounded on what to put here... perhaps one day in the not so distant future we will meet and you can tell me... until that day i will never know...

music and literature are the definite top two, followed by my family, a sketchbook & pencil, my friends, and oxygen in no discerning order.

life and all its amazingly unique intricacies. whether i'm lost in the depths of my extremely overactive imagination authoring wild stories and fantasies, pondering abstract philosophies, or just observing the beauty of the world around me and the people in it...

usually just hanging with my friends, passing the time in some way that amuses us.

that sometimes, very early in the morning just before the sun rises, i like to sit in the back yard naked and wrapped in a blanket (no indecent exposure tickets thank you very much) and smoke a cigarette while i watch the sky change shades of blue.

if like me, you're looking to meet somone new and maybe something more!
