My life generally revolves around hanging out with friends, food, drink, fun activities and lively conversation. I think I am easygoing with most things (on the surface) but I do like to show up to movies ahead of time;) I enjoy new experiences and all kinds of people and don't identify with a particular subculture. I loved Burning Man but when I travel again I'd like it to be somewhere I haven't been yet. For the past 8 years I've participated in a great book club and played on a soccer team (sadly I'm still learning to dribble). I can't retain information about music/bands but like to dance. I get a kick out of of 'interactive television', Project Runway & So You Think You Can Dance are to be scrutinized and hashed out with friends, much like sports for men (I am onto you). I love a good story and to try and have a sense of humor about this nutty world we live in.

my family & friends, reading, coffee, data organization, internets, and sleeping for 12 hours every once in a while

I like to go out to restaurants and bars, a few times a month, but Fridays can be so crowded and loud sometimes I prefer to go out during the week (I worry I'm getting crotchety). Having people over, going to house parties or chilling out to a movie at home are typical Friday nights for me.

Who am I looking for? Someone well-rounded, with the ability to have a good time and also be responsible, and most important someone who makes me laugh.
