Just moved to Delaware after 5+ years in Ontario, Canada. I am friendly, smart, funny. You know, all the good things people say they are. I am also a bit goofy, and a bit of a nerd.

I am rather fanatical about music (in almost any form). I am a huge baseball fan, and a hockey fan (I lived in Canada eh!). I like to cook and to eat. I exercise most days because I feel bad when I do not.

I am new to the area and just took a new job. I am still settling back in. I would love to find someone to keep me company, maybe show me around, and we could see what happens from there.

A friend once described me as someone who "knows a lot about what they like, and really knows what they like". That is a pretty good description of me.

Living it? Moving little bugs around. Trying to have some fun. Looking for the answers to obscure questions that mostly only interest me. Listening to music. Stuff.

Lots of random things. Painting bees, throwing frisbees, listening to music, watching baseball, I move small amounts of liquid well, I am a pretty good cook, I am great at remembering irrelevant and kinda dumb factoids...which means I would be pretty good at Jeopardy, I suppose.

I have absolutely completely and utterly no idea. Although, I can often be pretty loud and boisterous, so maybe that. Maybe we should meet and you can tell me.

MUSIC: (the saint) John Coltrane, Wilco, Grant Green, Bruce Springsteen, Lee Morgan, The Velvet Underground, Dylan, Talking Heads, My Morning Jacket, ANYTHING soulful, A Tribe Called Quest, Buck Owens, Loretta Lynn, the Del Mccoury Band, Kathleen Edwards, Blue Rodeo and Neil Young (need to represent Canada), Uncle Tupelo, Jayhawks, Gangstarr, Femi and Fela, Panda Bear, K'Naan, Sonic Youth, Jens Lekman, Lykke Li, Gillian Welch, lately Beach House, Damon and Naomi...Basically, if I hear something I like on the radio, in a store or whatever, I will usually get completely distracted. So, really, this is more of a list of things I have been listening to, I am not sure I have a favorite, and my listening changes almost hourly.

Movies: The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, The Manchurian Candidate (the original), Sabrina (only the original), The Freshman, The Natural, Stranger than Fiction, Bull Durham, For the Love of the Game...notice a theme? or two?

Books: Last Chance to See, Some Buried Cesar (actually most Rex Stout), Lolita, Perfume, The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, In the Miso Soup...actually most books by both Murakamis, Beak of the Finch

Food: just about everything is cool...except melon, I do not like melons...I mean not at all...what a terrible food or fruit or whatever it is..yuck!

TV (cause why not): Corner Gas, Lost, House, Lots of sports, Big Bang Theory, Top Chef

Things I cannot do without, eh?
1)Some source of music
2)A way of contacting my friends and family is important...so perhaps smoke signals or carrier pigeons
3)Something to read

I am kinda stuck at three. I suppose I can be pretty minimalist.

4) I am pretty fond of having a computer, and that would actually fill most of the first three items. So, obvious items excluded, I might be ok with just a computer and an internet connection. or radio and a phone. or radio and some stamps.

I over think most everything, except when I am not thinking at all. So, it really depends on the moment.

Depends on the Friday, the city, and the country! Give me some time to settle in and I will let you know.

I have a slightly cauliflowered left ear?

If one of my answers has peaked your interest. If you are bored (or not bored). If you feel like it.
