I am looking at myself, in a dirty mirror, and my hair is long.

My Self-Summary

I should have lived in the time of the beats. I really wish I'd run around Greenwich in those days, having gone conversations with the great wasted minds. I would be the guy who doesn't get too extreme, but is along for the ride with the crazies, and documents it with some sort of innocent perspective.

At my best, anyway.

Going to grad school for playwriting. I'll tell you more about that later. I do a fair amount of teaching in colleges and other schools.

I suppose i'm here throwing my penny in a wishing well and thinking, "I'd like to have an adult relationship."

Honestly, I'm ultimately hoping to find someone who will grow into a teammate, comic partner, lover and first-choice companion.

My type: Liz Lemon from 30 Rock.

What I’m doing with my life

Grad school, ad junct, writing plays, searching for shiny objects.

Yoga, Running, Trying to relax through the challenges of my grad school program.

I’m really good at

Dodging compliments.
Making Chili.
Hat juggling.

The first things people usually notice about me

I really have no honest answer for this.

The six things I could never do without

I hope there's nothing I couldn't do without. But six things of great importance to me are:

hope, love, theatre, notebooks, a work-out, opinions.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

stories. words. girls. god. faith. family. marriage. social injustice. death. friends. art. theatre. rocknroll. health. balance.

On a typical Friday night I am

convinced it's still Thursday.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I have souzaphones for feet.
