I am one adjective, two adjective, and three!.
My Self-Summary
I arrived in Lincoln a couple months ago to complete my graduate
degree and I'm still not sold on it. I spend my limited free time
wandering around wondering where the interesting and polite folks
hide.
I appreciate the weather in the south, a well crafted margarita
& a thoughtful mix cd. I am an advocate for slow foods & an
Excel whiz-boy. I have a five year plan which includes minimal time
in Nebraska & a significant contribution to this impending food
crisis.
I'm open to meeting, for whatever... but please bring something
compelling to the table.

How when you said "six things I could never do without," I
responded with a lenghty, alphabetized list that well exceeds six.
You should message me if
you like, because weather here is craptacular and I've found myself
online often these days.
