Update! I have grown a beard! Pictures coming soon!
I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.
- Augusten Burroughs
I'm very versed in photography and making everyday count. I'm 30, educated, employed, and mobile. I'm from Spokane and live in Bellevue.
I'm just me, a unique combination of nerdiness, politics, passion. I get entirely too excited about trivial things, and may squeal or jump. I'll try any food once.
I used to work at a hoity toity wine bar in Bellevue, so I learned to love and enjoy wine. I also brew my own beer, and I Karaoke because secretly I want to be a rock star and that's the closest I'll ever get.
I'm looking for an individual that has an incredible sense of humor as I do love to laugh. Always has an open mind, always willing to give something a fair shot. Someone to go on a ferry ride with, go to the zoo, go to a baseball game and otherwise spend a good percentage of my free time with. Lets go run through a sprinkler when it's hot, ride our bikes just because, and discover someplace neither of us has been.
CHEESY!

Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter can be said to remedy anything.
- Kurt Vonnegut
KEEPING IT REAL!
I used to be a photographer. Now I work at Trader Joe's. It's a good gig. Medical, dental, vacation, automatic retirement savings, sick leave, raises twice a year, but it's a means to an end at this point.
I'm heading back to school, time for a career change. I'm going to be a pilot. Flying planes is what makes me happy and I'm going to make a career out of that.
Trying to discover a Chinese takeout food place on the eastside that's good but cheap. Re-discovering how cool some of my family members are. Riding my Bike.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Propriety was a rigid master, but one that must be obeyed if one wanted to keep a sterling reputation.
-Lawana Blackwell
My voice carries, like a pack mule. I could be full of b.s. but I've never noticed me for the first time.

*I will be revamping this section soon to reflect my more current tastes. Or you can just skip it. Who reads these things anyway?*
A room without books is like a body without a soul.

Close Friends, phone, fresh air, family, this here interwebs, a good brew.

I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
-Albert Einstein
Aardvarks. The word not the animal. Cameras. Photography. What objects can crush a human skull repeatedly (Champagne bottle yes, wine bottle no.) and how to use said items in the event of a zombie apocalypse. How many bottles I'll get out of my next brew. Interstellar space travel. What I'm going to eat on my lunch break.

At home! Or a local music venue, or starting a road trip, or Karaoke. If you love Karaoke then that's a plus. A gallery opening. Discovering a new great dive. Love dives. BBQ and beer with friends. All that being said my Fridays aren't "typical" because I don't work a "Typical" bankers schedule.

Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
-Benjamin Franklin
I occasionally have dreams that spiders are attacking my face. Spiders don't scare me per se, but just like anyone else if one surprises me I'll startle and jump.

You're into adventure, karaoke, not easily offended, and like good beer.
You can properly use your and you're; there, their and they're.
You would like a guy to engage you intellectually.
Or if you just want to, what's the worst that could happen?
