I don't know why NYC_transwoman always comes up under "you might like."

I'm rather amazed at how much more there is to learn and how much more there is to figure out at this age.

Other totally majestic reasons... simple guy, on my own path, sarcastic, well traveled, down with high and low culture, able to dress self properly, critical but essentially hopeful and optimistic, willing to get down to some reggae/dancehall.

Also able to do long division on paper and explain the theory of relativity which is still blowing my mind. I also have a washer and dryer in my apt. And I'm obsessed with This American Life.

Fuugg... does this even minutely represent who I am?

I lived in Paris for 9 months and my french went from non-existant to really shitty. That's an improvement right? I speak French only to dogs and babies.

Writing, making art, showing it, trying to not get hurt on my bike again. Skateboarding through the city. Finding a path for the creative life. And now running my new bicycle bag company.

To be more specific... working on a few books, art pieces, art furniture, and bags.

Making a life that is more autonomous and independent.

Moisturizing. Giving massages. Calculating the tip. Daydreaming. Breaking down other people's problems.

My dry humor?

Sushi. The steak I had in Madrid. The salad I had at Five Leaves Greenpoint. The seafood I had in Barcelona. The food I had at a tiny restaurant in Hamburg. Cous cous with meregeuz sausage in Belleville, Paris. Ugh. I'm hungry now.

Ham on Rye by Bukowski, Catcher in the Rye by Salinger. Where I'm Calling From by Carver. The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things by J.T. Leroy (yeah I know he's not real). Self portrait in a Convex Mirror by John Ashbury. Yeah, I can read.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Before Sunrise. Before Sunset.

Not sure what my fav bands are anymore but these guys have stood the test of time. Coltrane. Yo la Tengo. Modest Mouse. Pavement.

Oh and This American Life is pretty damn good.

Contact lenses, phone (so I can write lots of notes and keep track of my to do list/calendar), good looking walking shoes, bicycle with helmet, fruit, alone time

too many things like analyzing why things are good/work/don't work/how it could be better, human interaction, emotions, poems, stories, art, furniture, design, fashion, the future.

How this profile could not possibly describe who I am or you are. How we have no idea what we want even though we may think we do.

Emotion vs. logic.

The rational and irrational mind.

How to simplify. How to be happy.

I can't turn off my mind

Never going to go a bar in Manhattan if I can help it, but instead seeing what's going on in Brooklyn. I'm usually on my bike going/coming from some place.

Qwask fg nwalzlzxx aww naalaaww. Yeah, I can't believe I just admitted that too.

I'm a mystery to myself. Help me help myself.

And I'm smart dumb.

you don't drool often, are real cool, ain't a fool and went to school.

you like my photo realistic self portraits in oil and condiments on my profile.

you're into word play and absurdity.

Independent ladies with independent thoughts. Ladies who know a lot about things I don't know anything about or a lot about stuff I know about. Ladies who can help me remember that last line/idea I just forgot. Ladies with a sense of humor for the odd, absurd, nonsensical, random... and those that can laugh at themselves and me.

Also women who'd like to trade massages or ride a bike thru the city at midnight.

And those who can enjoy silence as much as a good conversation.
