I am freckled, expressive, and wicked smahhht ;).
My Self-Summary
I know the difference between you're, your, and yore.
I appreciate humor in all its forms: a cerebral/witty comment or
clever turn of phrase, downright ridiculous situations (they do
make the best stories) but laugh the hardest at simple things like
a friend’s silly facial expression or exaggerated dance move.
I'm a romantic, but not in a typically commercial sense. The
day-to-day things make me melt, like opening your kitchen cabinet
and seeing that you picked up my favorite cereal.
What I’m doing with my life
Working on my writing. I'm more comfortable with essays, and would
like to expand my comfort zone to include longer form pieces and
perhaps fiction.
Soaking up as much culture, both foreign & artsy, as I can
manage. Went to the Shepard Fairy opening and thought his use of
derivative iconography was very interesting. There's this bar on my
list of places to check out that has Flamenco dancers on
Sunday.
Making the people in my life feel good about themselves - loved,
appreciated, supported, understood, accepted, and all that good
stuff.
I’m really good at
I have a savant-like ability for finding the perfect greeting card
for any occasion.
Alphabet soup. I love making up new words.
I am a master of the Google/FlickR image search. I'm very visual
and love finding conceptual photos that convey an idea or irony
sans the use of words.
Writing elaborate eVites. (Pls see above.)
Eating ice cream.
The first things people usually notice about me
My laugh. It usually precedes me.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Hollandaise sauce makes me happy.
Music: Jamiroquai, Shawn Colvin, Stevie Wonder, Colin Hay, Paulo
Nutini, Yma Sumac, Ben Taylor Band, Al Green
Craig Ferguson = dreamy and, to my chagrin, off the market.
:(
"The Soup" on E! (Great way to get your recommended daily
allowances for comedy, horror and drama.)
Mitch Hedberg.
The six things I could never do without
1. my MacBook
2. unsweetened iced tea
3. a stylist able to cut curly hair
4. roadtrips
i. car
ii. mapbook
iii. time
iv. co-conspirator
5. real down-home BBQ
6. dictionary.com
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Girly stuff:
clothes, boys and my next pillow fight
Geeky stuff:
how technology changes the way we all relate to one another
Goofy stuff:
LOLcats, ninjas and monkeys
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I joke about adopting a foster monkey.
It's highly improbable but the idea amuses me.

That's not particularly private. You'll probably have to stick
around a few months/years to get to the juicy stuff.
You should message me if
You're a solid guy. Your friends and family rib you mercilessly,
and you dish it right back. Behind your back, they say the nicest
things about you and can't help but smile while they're doing
it.
You're a bit of a goof. There's this sparkle in your eyes that
gives away your penchant for mischief, but it's clearly the
goodhearted variety.
Chances are you have a creative streak, but I dunno - you tell
me.
Srsly... fill me in.
