From the inside, I would say I'm a very serious silly person. I think I'm rather shy, and very private, but only until you get to know me. Then anything could happen. I'm sweet and put kindness above all else. We're all just learning how to be human after all.

I'm highly evolved, meaning I've done quite a bit of work getting to here. I'm in a good place, ready to give energy to a relationship. That's not to say that I'll ever be done tinkering, and I hope the person I'm with never is either. It's just to say that I know myself well, looking for the same in a partner, not looking to change anybody or be changed. Just looking to generate a lot of love with someone as we both go on our tinkering way...

God, this is turning out pretty serious. I will sprinkle in the fun part of me later.

A list of things I like to do: going to the movies (old and new), going to see live music, roller skating, lying in the park and doing nothing, cooking, trying new restaurants, riding rides at Coney Island, traveling, just talking to someone I find interesting. I can be a pretty cheap date.

The only sport I care about is tennis.

Questioning everything.

being prompt
getting good seats for movies
making lists, then procrastinating
describing people as a cross between one celebrity and another
clapping
getting below the surface very quickly

I've never asked anyone so I don't know. Perhaps you could tell me.

Recent favorite book: The Marriage Plot (tears) I'm super excited for the new George Saunders that I just bought.

Movies: All That Jazz, Badlands (Criterion DVD just released!)

Music: Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Girl Talk, Bill Evans, Stan Getz, Willie Nelson, Harry Nilsson, Beck, Sondheim, Reggie Watts... (predictably eclectic I'm afraid) I just cleaned out my cds and that was definitely a litmus test. Did I ever really like Urge Overkill? I think not, good sir.

Food: I am a foodie. I like food. Good food. Salmon is my favorite food.

coffee (I've tried, and it turns out that it's like 60% of my personality)
sleep (also a failed experiment)
human touch
unconditional love
cheese

Calculating the hours of sleep I can get between the time I get home and the time I have to get up in the morning. I really like sleep.

Gerard Butler - why?

Also sex, duh.

Well tonight I'm spending the night on 48th Street for SNL tickets.

Admit here? That I sometimes search by astrological sign.
(Plenty more admissions in-person, because I have done some real embarrassing shit.)

You are willing to meet in person. You don't have to be in New York, but as you can probably tell from this profile, I'm much more interested in the real world than the online one. I'm more interesting in person and gosh darn it I bet you are too.

Beyond that, you should contact me if you are a kind soul with a sneaky sense of humor who is looking for a real emotional and physical connection. You are not a game-player, and I'm not talking about poker, because that is fun.

I read a description recently of a certain kind of relationship, and I thought yes:
-intellectual and spiritual soulmate connection
-romance and passion
-sexual exploration and fulfillment
-creative communion

You're available and generous with yourself. No risk, no reward.
