My self-summary
Honestly, I check the "new matches" email, but don't really send out any messages or spend much time looking because, well, I'm quite disheartened with the fact that nearly all messages aren't replied to nor go anywhere. So, I guess that means I'm interested in meeting people who are excited about meeting me too?
I'm mostly interested in meeting new people and potential novel cuddle partners (life cries out for novelty!), but not likely much beyond that. I've often heard myself described as physically "comforting" and my cuddles superior.
I'm not too great at putting myself out there. I have a convoluted political and worldview that puts me on poor terms with reality and how the world works. Idealism much? I think so.
I'm geeky, environmentally-minded, mechanically inclined, sometimes creative, literal-minded and often dryly silly.
I'm involved in an open relationship and identify as poly. Despite that I've primarily been monogamous for all of my dating life except for a 6 month period that's now been immortalized as part of a music video: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzR5YgASB34) I've been dating tropicalturnip for over three years now.
That said, I love cuddles, kisses, massage; physical affection of all varieties are among my favorite things in the world.
I don't drive. I bike for 90%+ of everything I need to do in my life. A ride every so often for others, and buses or trains for the remainder.
I've biked across the country twice and would love to again, work-allowing. Looks like this year it'll just be Burning Man for my vacation. Probably bike trips to the San Juans, or train trips to Portland.
I live frugally, but that's never been a problem for me. Y'know it's OK to be a bit poor in such an affluent society when you can dumpster a PS2, my XP Pro disc/license, a server power backup, etc.

I am honest, geeky, and silly
What I’m doing with my life
Currently working on starting a new business while working FT. I work for a neighborhood hardware store in Greenwood and hoping to do a laser cutting and engraving business on the side and taking the required classes for an electrician trainee. Though, this does put me in the "die in a fire" income category [http://blog.okcupid.com/index.php/page/7/].
I've looked into neighborhood car-sharing schemes, community-supported volunteerism, eco-product vending machines, etc, but most are thwarted by over-regulation and high initial capital investments. As it is, I invest as locally as I can, including Flying Bike Brewery and others projects through Kickstarter and such.
I also volunteer for a community bike shop where we teach people how to fix their bikes or help people of little or no means fix or make their own bike.
Day to day I've been trying to make it through the winter. Cuddles are one of the few redeeming qualities of Seattle's winters awful weather.
I'm hoping to do another long bike ride. I was hoping to do Bike4Peace to DC again this year but it looks like I can't convince my work to grant me the time off for such an adventure.
Looking forward to next year's Burning Man.
I’m really good at
This section header doesn't really mesh well with how I present myself.
The first things people usually notice about me
If you're not interested, likely you'll gloss over me. If you are...I get eyes a lot.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
I LOVED reading Nick Harkaway's The Gone Away World and am about to finish Angelmaker as well. About to enjoy local author Ramez Naam's Nexus.
I've also enjoyed Ender's Game, The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat, A General Theory of Love, The God Delusion, The Myth of Monogamy.
So basically a bunch of sci-fi with a smidge of fantasy and then the rest is filled with comedy and the occasional interesting non-fic I apparently can't live without according to all my friends.

The Die Hard series, Meet the Feebles, Amelie, The Fifth Element, The Princess Bride, Existenz, Fight Club, Harold and Maude, Clerks. I'm a fair fan of weird indie sci-fi or thrillers.
I'm a sucker for a romantic comedy or big-ticket film with agood soundtrack. Just love how some play those strings keeping my heart-cockles from exploding outward.

Pinback, Ugly Casanova, Modest Mouse, Andru Bemis, Jason Webley, Soltero, The Black Heart Procession, Nirvana, Jeff Buckley, Death Cab, Rock Plaza Central, Beirut, Ani, Bjork, Counting Crows, Fiona Apple...etc etc.

Satsumas, chocolate, ice cream, pizza, pho, indian, some really good thai, tea, coffee, juice, FOOD.
The six things I could never do without
Oxygen, dihydrogen monoxide, nutrients, social interaction, sleep, and blood.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
My environmental impact, girls, the future. How I desire desire.
Plans for the future, the intricacies of how things work together, how to do things that are currently done for money as a non-profit, the worry of the day.
I also am pre-occupied with what others are thinking and what their reactions are to me. I'm always afraid of having a negative impact on someone.
Even more lately is: as I've tried to actually reach out to see about other partners is that it's hard to make that first contact. Guys are kind've expected to make that first move and so often its ignored or given short shrift. I can understand if you're not interested for whatever reason, but at least be decent enough to tell me so.
On a typical Friday night I am
If it's hot out, I'll be swimming after work, just like every time I can in summer. Y'know the dock north of the boat rental on Green Lake? There. All the time.
Either home finishing my internetting after work, making dinner from something dumpstered the night before, or a movie or doing some errands.
That, or I'm hanging out with some of my 4 awesome house-mates.
I work Saturdays!
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I'm mortally terrified of dancing.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 23–32
  • Near me
  • For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating, activity partners
You should message me if
You'd like to get to know someone that's chill, thoughtful, funny, or want to ride bikes together.
Or if you want to watch a movie and cuddle. I do that well.
I need to add the desire to meet someone who "gives a shit."
I realized, as I pulled ivy on a rainy weekend on a near-abandoned park with my girlfriend, that it's something I have valued in all my partners, but I have never consciously noticed until recently.
