I'd really like to meet people who live nearby! I don't get along with shy/quiet/awkward people, so if you're energetic and talkative that's better. No list of life accomplishments here, hopefully you can get the gist of my personality from this and evaluate whether we'd get along well!

Can I just say I'm smart instead of trying to convince you of it?
I've often heard that when guys look for a woman with a sense of humor, they want her to laugh at their jokes. I will if they're good. You'll probably laugh more at mine though.

I like a lot... (vaguely categorized)

1) bicycles, rock climbing, camping, backpacking, hiking

2) living with friends, exciting nonsense, making nonsense exciting, misadventures,

3) board games, sewing, colorful things, failed attempts at creative genius....

Climbing rocks. Camping. Coding for cash.

Going to be a Geography grad student this fall. I don't know what exactly a grad student does.

Finding free stuff. Finger crimps. Fuel-efficient driving.

Idk...Idk...That I look generally happy?

I like to read, and am happy when a novel imparts life wisdom.
Authors: Neil Gaiman, Bill Bryson

I listen to happy, non-aggressive music, but am very music-illiterate despite my attempts to remedy that. It's intimidating.

I'll watch specific TV shows, or socially with friends, but I'd rather be outside.
Shows: Parks & Rec, Adventure Time, Game of Thrones, Girls.

I'll cuddle up for a good movie, but my passive, sedentary attention span is low. It better be real good.
Movies: I Heart Huckabees

I'll eat your food, and cook with you, but I'm not cooking by myself. I'll usually buy vegan food, but if I want to eat a slice of pizza don't hassle me about it. I am obsessed with Pepsi Max and other diet energy drinks. So what?!?
Food: Yams, Apples, Bran Flakes, Broccoli.

I really like:
1) My bicycle
2) Caffeine
3) Board games
4) Friends
5) Rock climbing
6) Warm weather

How to fit as many awesome things with as many awesome people as possible into my day-week-life!

CAMPING!!!

I'm 900% more likely to reply if I find your photos physically attractive.

You are fun, energetic, and social. You don't describe yourself as shy, quiet, or awkward.

You are NOT going to pull any manipulative text-messaging nonsense. Super into straight-forward communication, we're all grown-ups here!

You treat all people well.

You are not in any form of the military.

We are not 20% enemies, 50% match, and live 100 miles away. Really?!??! Why...please, don't waste any of our time, at least think about whether you'd even like to meet me before sending out a message!
