**May 7 - June 15, 2013:
I am on a long road trip, hailing from Arlington, VA. Look for me and bacchusdream in : Grand Canyon NP, Mojave Desert National Preserve, Los Angeles, Sequoia NP, Yosemite NP, Santa Cruz, San Jose, San Francisco, Redwoods NP, Yellowstone NP, Wind Cave NP, Badlands NP, Wisconsin, Chicago.

I often wake up with the feeling that I must be the luckiest person in the universe.

I am constantly in awe of all of the beauty the earth has to offer. I am grateful for every experience I have.

I love to move my body, and I can often be found literally bouncing off the walls. I am game for any sort of sport, especially of the outdoor variety. One of my favorite activities is wrestling. (If you think you can beat me because I have two X chromosomes and you don't, think again!)

I am polyamorous, which for me means I get to experience each relationship I have at whatever level works for that relationship without any intimacy-stifling rules or commitments.
This also means I approach relationships from a place of abundance and sharing, and I appreciate people as they are rather than trying to force them to fit a role.

I am living out in the fringes of society, in community, where just about everyone I meet is passionate about living, changing the world for the better, and furthering their own personal growth.

I help to create contexts for people to push their boundaries, grow, and become more connected and conscious human beings. This means I get to do everything from plumbing to IT and anything you could possibly imagine in-between.

Playing, figuring things out, learning new skills, enjoying the fuck out of life, doing things that terrify me precisely because I am afraid of them.

What I get a lot of consistent feedback on is that people notice a quality of intense presence in me, meaning that I am unapologetically comfortable with myself and completely engaged in the moment.

Also:
-I don't say much, and when I do I don't mince words.
-I am exceedingly not normal.
-I am damned sexy.

BOOKS : I used to read a lot of fiction (sci-fi, mostly) when I was younger, but nowadays I find reality far more engrossing and gravitate towards non-fiction according to my interest of the moment.

WEBCOMICS : I <3 SMBC, xkcd, and PBF.

MUSIC: Depending on my mood, I can and will listen to just about anything.

FOOD : I love to cook, and I love to eat! I have been told repeatedly by others that I am an excellent cook. I rarely make the same thing twice because repetition gets boring fast.

Love, touch, sunshine, freedom, close friends, my guitar.

EVERYTHING -- I can't seem to stop. I rigorously examine every aspect of my life (and existence in general) as I become aware of it, and as far as I can tell this is likely to continue on ad infinitum.

It is quite exciting when I happen upon something I don't know but would like to and then proceed to TACKLE it with fanatical fervor.

Completely unaware that it's Friday.

I am constantly expanding my boundaries and pushing myself to grow. I love and accept myself completely, and yet I find it challenging and extremely rewarding to work on improving myself.

Something I'm playing with currently is shifting how much I initiate activities and conversation with other people.

You think we could learn from each other.

You want to have lots of fun adventures together.
