I'm an easy-going guy who really likes to travel, do anything outdoors, have a good drink, cook some good food, and be around people I can have a great time with. Born and raised in Houston - went to school up in Seattle - Just moved out to the Bay Area a few months ago.

Free dating site? Questionable. What the hell, everyone's on here for one reason or another - just message me and I'll buy you a beer somewhere. Hopefully with some talking thrown in somewhere but that's optional on your part.

I just moved to the Bay Area a few months ago and that's the main reason I'm on here. Working on beginning my acting career coming out of college - advancing my EMT job - trying to write more - and getting back in to music via the drums and guitar. Boom. Life.

Not a great feeling putting your life in to two sentences but I'm just going to assume if you're reading this you realize that your life is more than a blurb on some website. So let's get off our computers and go do something!

Doing a hand-stand. Also really good at cooking any type of breakfast food.

Also, on the other end, I'm just awful at being sarcastic.
(I hope that lands for someone)

Depends on how clothed I am. Right?
So I'm also really good at telling jokes.

But really I can't say - I'm basically you're white American young male poster boy. On the outside at least. (Deep, I know)

So many books to read, movies to watch, music to listen to, and food to eat - so little time. I'll give a few of each, not necessarily my top picks but ones that come to mind right.. NOW.

Be sure to judge me extremely harsh when perusing the following lists. Your favorite move/band/book not on here? Probably means I'm boring as hell.

Movies -
Garden State - Blade Runner - Rear Window - Lost In Translation - Princess Bride - The Matrix - Braveheart - Before Sunrise - Like Crazy - any Wes Anderson film

Music -
Muse - The Black Keys - Blind Pilot - Daft Punk - Lovedrug - O.A.R. - The Avett Brothers - Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Armin van Buuren
Also a big fan of jazz and classical music

TV Shows -
30 Rock - Parks and Recreation - Arrested Development - Breaking Bad - Dexter - Firefly - Community - Home Movies - and of course, Gilmore Girls

Books -
Anything by Chuck Palahniuk - Hamlet, Macbeth, and the other better Shakespeare plays, no All's well that Ends Well please.
Crime and Punishment - A lot of non-fiction like biographies
Also Calvin and Hobbes - seriously - some deep life lessons to be learned from that child and his stuffed tiger

Food -
I'm extremely NOT picky when it comes to food - love it all and love trying something I've never had before. My favorites would have to be the simple comforts like a great steak or a good burger. Clearly not a vegetarian.

1. Family
2. Good friends
3. Great music
4. Tasty food
5. A notebook
6, My camera

Things everyone should do without:
Black liquorice
Brussels sprouts
Reality TV

What other people are thinking about.
What I'm going to make next.
What I want to learn about next.
Why I don't just sell everything I own and start traveling to nowhere in particular.

Or what I'm gonna eat next - I'm only human after all

Trying not to have a typical Friday night - but I think mostly failing.
I try and go see as much theater as I can, being an actor. I also love a cozy bar with some live music - of the variety where conversation can still occur.

I'm more often than not in watching a good movie and cooking something new though. That's why I'm on here, right? Find people to go out and do things with?

I think I already admitted it when I put Gilmore Girls as one of my favorite TV shows - reserve judgement until you've watched it is all I'm asking

Just message me - the worst that happens? Nothing. Or we meet up and you get a cup of coffee or beer or wherever you want to go. I'm new to this wacky world of online social stranger stalking (facebook aside) so just do it. I'm down to meet some interesting people and create some good friendships above anything else.

Also message me if you know of -
Good places that have live jazz regularly
The best food truck around
A cool piano bar
A place with a good game of trivia
A good bar to play pool in

There's a theme - food, drinks, music, games. Ideally - a lot of all the above.

*To everyone I've sent messages to and received no response.
