My self-summary
Who I am:

Simple, laid back, hard working, unpretentious, active, and open-minded. I always see the glass as being half full. No matter what life throws at me. And it has, from time to time, thrown some good pitches. Adversity and hardship, I have learned, do an excellent job at forging character and fortifying one's essence. Must be the former Marine in me.

Who I am looking for:

Beautiful in your own understated way, down-to-earth, deliberate, outdoorsy, easy going, smart, secure, open-minded, emotionally consistent, and genuinely kind. You stay in good shape (not in an excessive/slavish way, but in a way that clearly indicates you take pride in your appearance and care for your wellbeing). You are not afraid of a little dirt, sweat, or elbow grease. I am an active person with lots of fun, hands on, mostly outdoors projects. The best partnerships, I have found, are cemented in the process of conceptualizing and then executing a shared project, dream, vision, etc. In a related vein, I would hope you are not the kind of person who gets squeamish the moment you step outside your mental, physical, or emotional zone of comfort. Of course, being well traveled goes a long way towards countering that. As does being deeply connected with real people - from all, not select, walks of life - along the way. Most importantly, you appreciate quality over quantity, recognize that less is often more, engage more than spectate, and love to laugh. For real.

Sincerity, integrity, optimism, and good energy are critical on an all around basis.

With three kids (6.5, 8, and 17), I must say I'm not actively looking to have more kids. However, were I to meet somebody on here that has not had kids, is very eager to have kids, and had otherwise stolen my heart and mind, then I'd of course be open to that.
What I’m doing with my life
Working to finish my PhD. Spending as much time as possible with my kids.

Also, trying to plan a summer hiking trip to the French Pyrenees (on the GR10). I've wanted to do this for years. It would be really cool to be able to share this experience with somebody special.
I’m really good at
Designing things. Building things. Conserving things. Simplifying things. Doing without things. Appreciating things, especially those that are small and seemingly inconsequential. Finding the good and the beautiful in every aspect of mundane life. Thinking outside of the box about things. Endeavoring to learn new things. Challenging the status quo of my daily life. Walking in the shoes of others.

I think I'm also good at listening, being supportive, exploring, nurturing, sharing, accommodating, compromising, trusting, communicating, going slowly yet deliberately.
