Originally from a small town in Ireland, I've been gallivanting around New York for almost six years at this stage, but haven't lost the beguiling, bewildering brogue just yet :p

My interests are "mixed" to say the least. I have season theater tickets, but enjoy the odd Yankies* game. I used to cook but haven't for years so I eat out a lot, including once at Medieval Times (and not for my sixth birthday). I love being in the city during the week, and out of it at the weekends. I'm outgoing, fiercely loyal, and (mostly) housebroken.

* A friend pointed out that I can't spell "yankees," but it seems more honest (and more telling), to leave it as is. Sports (at least sitting around watching them) just aren't my thing. I have officially tried, and failed at: jet-skiing, fencing, and sky-diving. Actually,"failed sky-diver" is probably an overstatement.

I'm a mild-mannered attorney at a fancy-pants law firm. By day.

Collecting degrees. However, I can't (or won't) budget to save my life, and seem to spend a lot of time "apologizing for any offense caused."

My raucous laugh - from twenty feet away.

Music: See "most private thing I'm willing to admit" below.
Books: I'm reading a lot of biographies at the moment, most recently those of Steve Jobs and Tony Blair.
Shows: Dexter, True Blood, Weeds, Entourage, The
Office, TopGear, The Life and Times of Tim, and Desperate Housewives (cringe).
Movies: If you liked Forgetting Sarah Marshall, we're going to get on famously.
Food: I love anything that once had a face (and ideally four "stomachs").

Friends (in general), friends who know when to say "that's a Bad Idea" (in particular), contact lenses, the open road, SantaCon, an arc reactor :p

Whether the "Buy her A-list" button works.

Hanging out with my friends (they're a fun lot). They are also witty, loyal, generous, and handsome. And proof-read this blurb.

I have varied (read as: "awful") taste in music. Years ago, "hoodlums" broke into our apartment and selectively robbed my then roommates' CDs, but not mine, from our shared rack. My collection, if not my pride, remains intact.

You think Ziggy's gotten too preachy too...
