I am happy, trustworthy, and witty/sarcastic.

My Self-Summary

Aw jeez...essays?? I didn't like them in school still not a big fan...but hey I guess since I want to read about you , you also want to read about me.

I‘m just your average all around, nice, decent, honest genuine guy. I'm 6' tall and weigh about 175 pounds. Not too fat, not too thin, I guess I'm probably on the slight side of average. I've got brown hair, blue eyes, glasses...all the other basic stuff...2 eyes, 2 ears, a nose lol... Beyond my physical appearance I would describe myself, as intelligent/educated, logical/analytical, witty, funny, modest, easy going, mature, stable, supportive, responsible, a good listener and above all else honest/trustworthy.
Other than college and law school I've lived my whole life in CT , my family is in CT and I'm quite close with my family. In my free time, I like sports…baseball (Life long Red Sox fan!!! But Yankee fans still welcome), football and college basketball are my favorites...going out to dinne, see a movie, a show, a concert, spending time with family and with friends
At home I enjoy reading, playing with my dog, cooking, surfing the net, mind benders/logic games and let's not forget just relaxing in front of the TV catching up on Tivo. What else? I don't smoke. I love animals, I have a dog, a 9 year old Tibetan terrier. I enjoy being outdoors doing something I’ve never done, something I’ve done many times, or just aimlessly doing nothing in particular, but I'm also very happy staying at home.
Phew! 1 essay done...how many more to go?

What I’m doing with my life

Well despite that law school stuff in my first essay, I'm not a lawyer...longer story I'm happy to tell...I'm invovled in computer/internet/marketing work for one of the largest comapnies here in CT. My dream job? Eh, no...but having been there several years I have established myself as a responsible employee they can trust to get the job done right, which affords me a lot of independence which is good. Also while I just have to sit back and chuckle at the "spin" and "public relations" machinations corprations go through I do have to admit that I like the stability of knowing there's a steady paycheck, instead of the uncertainity of being a small business owner (which I have also tried)

The first things people usually notice about me

hmmm never really thought about it...I hope it's not something negative!! I'll guess either my eyes, or a scar on my right cheek from some surgery I had as a child

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

oooh favorites...

book: the Winner by David Baldacci
movie: Shawshank Redemption "Get busy living or get busy dying"
Food: Way too many to list, I'm all about variety in what I eat
what's left? oh Music... 80's rock!!!

The six things I could never do without

6...that's an odd choice, why not 3, 5, or 7?

1. The important people in my life
2. My dog
3. Personal satisfaction of where I am in my life
4. iPOD
5. TV
6. Money

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Hmm...lemme think about it ;)

On a typical Friday night I am

Well I'm over the bar/club scene...maybe a couple times a year with friends to celebrate an accomplishment but that's it.

You can usually find me out having a nice dinner, maybe a movie, local theater productions, maybe the casino, or a concert occasionally...but if all else fails, home relaxing with my dog and the TV is always a fallback Friday night plan I'm happy with.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Hah! Not here...once we get to know each other

You should message me if

Anything here about who I am catches your attention.
