I am open, inquisitive, and insightful.
My Self-Summary
I never know what to write for these silly things. Everytime I try
and write something clever, it comes off as forced and obnoxious.
Let's just lay out the facts.
I graduated about a year ago with a degree in Psychology, which has
nothing to do with my current plans.
I don't like the bullshit that goes along with a lot of dating. I
like things to be upfront and clear, it makes my life much easier.
Selfish, I know.
I feel like I know a lot of really awesome people in Portland.
However, I want to know more people. I'm a social butterfly at
heart, I'm just really bad at meeting folks.
I sing in the Portland Gay Men's Chorus. I have met some of the
most amazing people through PGMC.
I recently got a nerdy, nerdy tattoo, my first. It was an
incredible experience, and I can't wait until I can get some more
work done.
What I’m doing with my life
Right now I have a great job that I love with a certain large
independent bookstore. I adore my coworkers, love what I do
(talking on the phones), and actually look forward to going to work
(not to mention the paychecks!).
Also, I'm trying to get my life in order so that I can go to law
school in a few years. I want to go into family law, specifically
adoption law. I had a conversation with a judge lately about
geriatric adoption, and all of the issues going on with that, and I
think it's something that I could get into.
I’m really good at
I think I'm a pretty good singer, I'm a good listener and I think I
give pretty good advice.
The first things people usually notice about me
I have no idea what people notice right away. Maybe you can tell
me?
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: I have really been enjoying short stories lately, Neil
Gaiman, Abigail Thomas, Kuai Hart Hemmings. I just read World War
Z, a must read, I think.
Music: Bach, Haydn, Sondheim, Cole Porter, Rodger's & Hart (or
Hammerstein), Lady Gaga, Keane.
Movies: Cradle Will Rock, Playing by Heart, De-Lovely, Clue, Murder
by Death.
The six things I could never do without
Books, music, cute pair of shoes, my glasses, computer, iPod
I spend a lot of time thinking about
What I want to do next. I think about my friends. I think about
music and the expression of music. I think about how my perceptions
of the world are probably so different from that of others and what
that means.
On a typical Friday night I am
Happy hour, Portland has great happy hours...
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I am a huge nerd, also a hopeless romantic.
You should message me if
You think I'm interesting, you want to grab a coffee or a meal.
You're tired of all the bullshit that goes with sites like this.
You're looking for a real person.
