just looking for a good time. due to massive queries on what that means i will say it does not necessarily mean whatever you get by calling a number in a bathroom stall. it means the essence of what everyone is looking for here. i just don't like to talk about myself a lot.

just about anything with my hands: music, building stuff.

here we go: pretty much non-fiction. i've never enjoyed reading because i don't like to sit for very long.

favorite movies: american beauty (1999) | the road warrior (1981) | shaft (1971) | star wars (1977) | 2001 (1968) | death to smoochy (2002) | one flew over... (1975) | miller's crossing (1990)

music: to specify an era, it would be the early 20th century (stravinsky, schoenberg, shostakovich). genre would be vocal-orchestral.

food: southern (meatloaf, mashed potatoes, cornbread). other than that, japanese (sushi)

peanut butter, UV protection, the internet, the piano, coffee, bicycles

people tell me i'm a closet goth.

you're not here because your friends made you do it or you want a third partner for your weird relationship or you want someone to buy you things. just a simple and enjoyable partnership would be fine. i'm not gonna call you a radical feminist for being one to initiate a conversation with someone you find attractive.

PROS:
- musical comprehension (my college degree is a BA in Music)
- health, fitness
- enthusiasm

CONS:
- artsy/outdated photos
- cats
- drama
- presumptuousness
- pot/alcohol abuse
