Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

As with anything, this is a work in progress and changes as I change and evolve.. for some reason, however, it keeps turning out very boring, and I'd like to think that I, myself, am not as boring as I describe myself. I mean that would be just sad and pathetic.

But perhaps my problem is that I'm not easy to describe or explain through words. Or I am delusional.. one or the other must be true.

I think the best way to describe me is that I'm constantly in flux learning new things about myself and the world around me. I like meeting new people that I can relate to on some level. I'm fairly intelligent, but not pompous. I'm confident in many ways, and then not in so many others. I'm funny in ways that aren't in your face. I don't tell good jokes for example. But I can come up with a pretty decent come back on occasion.

I'm at a really good place in my life. I tend to connect well with others, and I've been told that I make people feel as if we've known each other forever. When I like you or love you, I tend to like you or love you forever. I'm still friends with almost all my exes. Not sure what that says about me. :) As much as I take some of what I do very seriously, I don't take myself that seriously. I've got an odd sense of humor. But most of all, I'm very real. Once you're allowed to get to know me, you never have to wonder where you stand with me. I'm open and honest, some times to a fault.

I don't like labels, but just so there's no miscommunication I'm what is commonly referred to as a BBW. If you don't like fat chicks even as friends... then we pretty much shouldn't waste our time even saying hi to each other. I don't expect everyone to be attracted to me, but I do expect everyone to respect me. I will not tolerate anything less.

I'm married, and only looking for friends. Right now, I have everything in my life that I want relationship wise. My husband is well aware that I have this profile. Nothing I am doing is behind his back so don't contact me for some illicit sex. In fact, if your partner doesn't know you're meeting people on here.. even as friends, then I'm guessing we won't get along very well.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

I shape young minds as a University Professor. I love what I do most of the time, but as with any job, there are days where I want to jump out of my office window. I'm only on the second floor so this isn't as extreme as it sounds. :)

Lately I've been very geeky. I've recently started to play Dungeons and Dragons, and I'm starting to collected fun odd board games like Starfarers of Catan, Carsaconne, and Powergrid!

Changing.. I'm not the same person I was six months ago, and I'm not sure I'm the same person I was two weeks ago. It isn't a bad thing.. just a thing. I'm excited about meeting new friends, and those that I have met in the last six months have enriched my life in really really wonderful ways.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

connecting with people. I tend to be easy to talk to, and as my friends will tell you, I like deep meaningful conversations. I'm not the type of person who just takes things on the surface. I want to understand meaning and motivation. This drives people batshit insane. I understand this, and do what I can to spare people as much as possible. :)

I'm also a flirt. I tend to flirt with everyone. It's just my way...

This question is always problematic for me... I need to ask a few people and get back to you on this one.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

1. Someone to talk to 2. Something to read 3. Something to listen to 4. Someone to love 5. Something to write on

Beyond the typical air/water/food, those are the major ones for me.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

I'm always thinking.. its hard to pinpoint what I think about. Sometimes I think about important things and sometimes the bizarre.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

I'm not sure I have a typical Friday night. Since it is just about summer right now, I will be spending many Friday nights in the pool. I also like getting together with friends to just hang out or play Rock Band.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

I have been known to put down the window of the car and moo at cows as I drive by.. works much better when I'm the passenger. :)
