"Just be cool, and everything will be cool." - Anonymous friend of mine. Best all encompassing and applicable catch phrase EVER.

I'm currently putting together my heist fantasy league and wondering if any of you who run across this profile might fit the bill. Let me know if you're into the idea.

I'm an artistic optimist with a grouchy demeanor in the morning light until I can get a shower and anything with caffeine in it. Too bad I don't wake up till the afternoon on most days (SO glad I don't have to work before then). I want big things from my life, but I want someone who's willing to watch me get those things on my own and then tell me how awesome it was to watch me be myself in the process (or find out that I had no idea who I was at the time).

I appreciate my own limits, but encourage others to push theirs. I write songs, I doodle, and I keep my clean clothes in the dryer until someone else needs to use it, and I hate hate hate the smell of cat piss in people's homes. That and extreme cases of anthropomorphism. Oh yea, and cilantro...don't even go there. I've been told my disgust for it is actually an allergic reaction, but either way I think it tastes like I'm licking a rancid armpit. No thanks.

I'm often preoccupied thinking about what makes a life-long relationship flawless, and whether or not I'm cut out to even be having that thought in the first place. I mean, are you? We're on a fucking internet dating site for fuck's sake. Hahaha.

Ask me something. Anything. Please. I dare you.

What I'm doing, eh? Occupationally speaking, I'm a guitar/bass/drum instructor for a f!%*ing kick ass music school for kids. I'm also the boss of official awesomeness there. No bull. That's like my job description...to be awesome and teach music, so I quite literally get paid to play all the time. Jealous?

Other than that, searching for ways to expand my social after-work agendas (whatever the hell THOSE are). Nah, I don't have an agenda at all at this point. I just want some good company. A collection of moments with a fellow human--outside of work and home. My roommates are almost as rad as I am (hah), but they're lacking in the "I'm a lady" department.

Hahaha... Look man, I'm just riding the wave. I'm not too poor, not too rich, I can feed myself and also wipe my own ass. I've AT LEAST got my things together enough to be thinking about entertaining the thought of thinking about someone else. I hope you can dig it.

A lot of things that are likely to end in -ing.

My presence?

Favorite band everrrr: Incubus (I have had every single one of their albums at some point, I promise)

Also, I'm a music geek--so listing off all the songs running through my mind right now would lead to blistered fingers. I'm also not an elitist, nor a trendsetting up-and-coming forecaster, but if you like to share your tastes with people then count me in. I'll find a beat to bob my head to, I promise.

Food: Yes, I can actually make a meal that doesn't
require a glance at the "directions", come from a freezer or a box with flavor packets, or make use of a microwave preset. Thank you. I've actually made a bunch of stuff, but when I do it's totally on the fly. So far, I've eaten all of it and haven't died or used my gag reflexes.

Movies: I'm for 'em!

Books: I'm an article reader. I'm honestly not a huge book guy, but I'd also honestly like to change that. Honestly. I do like reading articles of semi-substance though. Mainly techy mags. Tape Op, WIRED, Psychology Today, Popular Science, etc.

Earth. Fire. Wind! Water! Heart. Goooooo Planet!

How much time I spend thinking.

Working and waiting for Saturday when I have to wake up earlier than any other day of the week......LAAAAME. Saturday & Sunday nights are my JAM though.

I've never peed in a public pool. I always got out and risked slipping and breaking my neck and drowning. Yep. I'm adventurous.

You like my face but think there's probably more to me. If only you would just write me a message...Hey! There's a thought :P

Also--since a bunch of you gals have thrust these "bonus points for some bullshit" out there a bunch, then here's mine just for kicks: Tell me your favorite Mitch Hedberg joke. If you have to look him up to find one, then you obviously don't already know what funny actually is. ;P
