I am curious, philosophical, and optimistic.

My Self-Summary

I am a terrible typist so there will probably be a few typos, forgive me.

I am an only child, I was born in Washington (state), but from there my parents moved me all over the country till I finally ended up in Iowa. My parents though, are awesome, I have always gotten along with them; I guess I don't really have one of those broken home stories.

I love the outdoors, if I am camping, fishing, hiking, or biking chances are I'm happy.

I am agnostic, but I don't think that an individual's religion is particularly important. Everyone has the right answer for their own lives and its none of my business. That said I like talking about religion, I'm just not out to change minds.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm hoping to learn as much as I can and grow as much as I can while I can.

I’m really good at

I have a large vocabulary

I'd like to think I'm creative

I'm fairly eloquent

I have a head full of useless information... Maybe some day I'll be on Jeopardy

I'm a very logical person

I can lift heavy things

The first things people usually notice about me

I have a big smile and messy hair.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

(A) I'm going to go with authors: Kurt Vonnegut, Greg Egan, Max Barry, George Orwell, Jared Diamond, Thomas Freidman, Jose Villareal (Pocho changed my life), Greg Bear, Arthur Clarke, Thomas Pynchon

(B) In no particular order: City of Lost Children, Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas, La Haine, Schindler's List, The Battle of Algiers, Goodbye Lenin!, Donny Darko... many others, I watch lots of movies Netflix is my friend.

(C) Third Eye Blind, Keane, Motion City Soundtrack, Ok Go, Kill Hannah, Ambulance Ltd., Iron and Wine, on and on...

(D) I'll try anything once and very rarely find something I don't like, my favorites are Japanese, Vietnamese, and Indian. But I really love to cook and if you could see my messy kitchen you would have no doubt that I do an awful lot of it. I really like wine.

The six things I could never do without

Books, Education, NPR, Spring, Fall, the Outdoors

I spend a lot of time thinking about

The future, I don't really worry about it, I'm more excited to see what will happen more than anything else.

I always like thinking about religion, politics, and deeper things but its really more fun to chat about those than think about them by yourself.

On a typical Friday night I am

With a small group of friends, probably doing something unproductive or geeky. If not that I'm cooking or watching a movie, or both. On occasion I am off drinking.

Once in a great while I'll throw a dinner party and cook for a bunch of friends.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I know its terribly unfashionable, but I really don't want children, I don't know if I ever will.

You should message me if

Message me for whatever reason you like, I love talking and you won't weird me out. That said if you can't carry on a cogent conversation about politics, religion, art (i use that term broadly), food, or science we probably don't have a lot to talk about.
