I think it's time I updated this...I think pretty much everything on here was from 2006ish? I know...I'm slackin.

I'm still you're average guy with good points and bad points and I still think overall I'm a pretty decent guy. I still love living life and I still enjoy a little dash of excitement mixed in with my everyday routine...

Some things that have changed since 2006:

I think I've settled down in many aspects. I find myself less on the go and more looking for my sandy beach with a cool drink on a sunny day.

I've discovered my "center"...if you'd like to call it that. It's difficult to explain but it's a lot like being in the eye of a storm...the storm being everyday life.

I'm a lot less into the party scene or the extreme sports scene these days. I've come to the point where I've already done a lot and seen even more so I've started taking in the less noticed aspects of life...That doesn't mean I sit around all day and watch dust particles float by...I still like adventures...they're just a different brand of adventure now. ;)

I've also come to the point where I'm waiting for that "someone" to experience the rest of life with...that's what seems to be missing from all my adventures these days. I decided not to look for her though...It's kinda like when you lose your keys and look for 5 hours to find them just to realize they were in your pocket the whole time. haha

Aside from that I guess I'm mostly the same as I've always been. I still love meeting new people. I still love experiencing all that life has to offer. I still have all my beliefs and I'm still pretty stubborn when it comes to them...Oh and I'm still Dan. Nice to meet you.

Currently I'm focused on my career. I've come a long way in short amount of time for someone my age. All things considered, I'm doing pretty good with it.

I'm also thinking a drastic change of scenery is in order. I've pretty much lived in one area for the last 8 years and I'm thinking some where sunny would be nice...maybe Florida...or Cali...Hawaii? What do you think?

I'm still good at being me. That would include but is not limited to; making friends, talking, smiling, making others smile, enjoying life, motivating others to find what they want in life...and just living in general. Not to mention a few other skills I keep in my tucked away for a rainy day...or candle lit night. ;) haha

Obviously people notice I'm not wearing a shirt...on here. However, I promise that I wear clothing on a regular basis. I'll explain later why the no shirt thing is relevant to OKC though.

In real life people seem to notice that I have unique eyes or that I'm constantly smiling about something...not a creepy smile...more like the "I know something you don't know" smiling.

I read a lot of literature on philosophy and logical thought. I don't have a library of many, many leather bound books that smells of rich mahogany and pipe tabacco...but I have the internet and I like to see what views other people have on life...so I spend some free time reading things like that.

Movies...Normally I'm HUGE into movies but lately I see one maybe once or twice a week depending on the level of boredum. Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures right??

I love music. I'm the guy with the iPod with 8,000 songs on it by bands you've never heard of...Yea...I'm that guy. ;)

I love food. There's nothing better to finish off an evening or begin the day than good food. Food brings people together, makes people happy and can even ignite romance. I especially love food that I've made.

-6. My family/friends are very important...until that "someone" shows up they'll always be number 1.

-5. I could also never live without myself...so I have to rank number 2...I don't know if you know this...but I'm kind of a big deal...to me.

-4. My career comes next at 3...without it I couldn't secure my future, my future spouse's future or my future kids' future...and possibly my future kids' kids' future...yea.

-3. My car. Yup...now comes the material things. I love my car. I waited for years to get it, its my dream car...it ranks at 4 until something more important comes along.

-2. My iPhone. One of the best investments I've EVER made. I've had the first generation iPhone years now. It ranks at 5. I want the new one so bad! But I'll wait.

-1. It sounds silly but...Chocolate. Yes...the drug of the gods. I think chocolate should be on any single person's top 10. I mean come on...it's a substitute for sex! ;) It ranks a 6 for me.

I spend time with all sorts of thoughts floating around. Probably the only time I'm not thinking about some odd topic is when I'm sleeping...then only god knows what I'm dreaming about. haha

I think about the future a lot. I find that dwelling on the past is nice every once in a while but typically its better to simply leave it be. I mean what can you do about it...it already happened. So instead I think more on the future. I can actually do something about that.

Friday nights are still pretty random for me. I spend a lot of time running and staying in shape so there may be some nights I'm finishing up a 7, 8, 9 or 10 mile run. Other nights I'm just hanging out with friends...not really partying...just hanging out...probably with food. ;)
Friday nights are reserved for whatever strikes my fancy.

There is nothing private about me. I'm very open to anyone. Ask me anything, you'll get an answer. I promise.

You should send me a message if you'd like to talk, flirt, share an opinion or just tell me how the weather is in your part of the world.

Now about the no shirt thing...I told you I would explain it. ;)
There's two reason for the no shirt photos.
#1. Marketing. Deny it all you want, people are attracted to skin...it's proven. You see an underware ad, you can't help but glance.
#2. (here's the important part) It tells me about the type of person you might be and helps me sort out who I'd like to talk to vs. who I'd be less inclined to talk to. (ie. I don't much like shallow people)
So if you're under the impression that I just love showing off my body...you should probably think again. haha

But I'll talk to anyone. So message me!
