I am hilarious, insightful, and quirky.

My Self-Summary

Howdy!

I love playing games of all sorts (video games, board games, card games, whatever!). I also enjoy camping], hiking, singing, fishing (though I rarely catch anything), rock climbing, and trying new things.
I love knowledge, both giving and receiving it.
I am independent, and I love myself.
I have a politically incorrect sense of humor, and I love to laugh. I *can* filter my humor in the right circles, but it's sure best when I can just let the funny flow.
I am a big nerd in all the best ways. :)

What I’m doing with my life

Finishing my bachelor's in Radiation Health Physics, masters in Education, then to teach! Most likely Science at the middle-school level.

I’m really good at

Getting along with good people from all walks of life. I'm quite funny once I get to know people, but I tend to be quiet and reserved at first until I can get a feel for how someone thinks and acts before I lower my guard. I enjoy everything from the stupid, painful puns to horribly offensive things, so it's important I get a feel for what's appropriate before I try to joke around too boisterously.

The first things people usually notice about me

I don't play most of the social games every seems to go for...I'm direct, straightforward, blunt, open in my communication with other people the vast majority of the time. The downside is, I usually assume other people are doing the same, so I'm terrible at trying to read subtle signals.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Some books I've read and enjoyed include The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul by Douglas Adams (and of course the Hitchiker's series), The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene, The Prophet by Khalil Gibran, Wicked by Gregory McGuire, and Spin by Robert Charles Winston. I also finally got around to reading Watchmen. I was surprised just how well the movie followed the book, but there were definitely some extra morsels in there that I hope end up in deleted scenes for the DVD.

I enjoy movies of all sorts other than gory horror (just boring). I don't watch a lot of TV other than what I stream online, but when I get the chance I really enjoy Survivorman, The Office, and Mythbusters.

Music: I pretty much enjoy everything out there. Lately the stuff that's been on my playlist is Flight of the Conchords, Styx, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Tenacious D, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Radiohead, Damien Rice, Led Zeppelin, Ella Fitzgerald, Howlin' Wolf, Queen, God Lives Underwater, Johnny Cash, and The Doobie Brothers.

My favorite cuisines are good chinese and good japanese, especially sushi. Also anything with garlic in it, good hot wings. Yum!

The six things I could never do without

Freedom - Freedom from abstract social boundaries, freedom to express myself.

Peace - Internal Peace, peace of heart and peace of mind.

Friends & Family - What's the point in going to work, or in having any free time afterwards, if you don't have these?

Music - I enjoy a lot of different music, though I'm finding my preferences are rather outdated compared to my peers. I don't follow up and coming band names, as I've found my more enjoyable music from the past than on the radio.

Sleep - I loved sleep back when I could get plenty. Now that's it's in limited supply, oh man do I love sleep. Shame I still have to make it a low priority so I can still go for everything else I want/need.

Laughter - I have to get to know someone before I can bring laughter to the table, as I can be extremely offensive when I'm being funny if I don't know someone's "rules of appropriateness", but there's few things I love more than bringing a smile to someone's face.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Everything. My brain rarely shuts off.

On a typical Friday night I am

Might go out to karaoke, might play a ton of video or computer games. I'm on medication that screws with my blood pressure, so I don't do as much high intensity physical action anymore. I've got a workbench in the garage, and I always have some sort of project going on in there.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I don't keep secrets about myself and I don't embarrass easily. Literally any subject is open with me.

You should message me if

You think it's strange that there are left and right handed gloves, left and right foot shoes, but the vast majority of socks can just go on any foot. Or you wish you had an amazing conversation starter but can't think of one. I'll cover you...
