I am clever, playful, and irreverant.

My Self-Summary

Oh I hate this part... I cheated on the three adjectives part- I asked my friends to describe me and they came up with 19 but I narrowed it down to three. lol Let's see... I'm 30, very independent, middle class, and have been told that I'm very 'midwest.' In general, I make up my own darned mind about things and am somewhat outspoken.

What I’m doing with my life

I work for a living (don't we all) in the intensely exciting field of... accounting. (Falls a little flat doesn't it?) It's not my dream job but I'm good at it and it's been taking care of me for the last few years. Been on the hunt for a second job too as I like to keep myself busy. Also, seem to be eternally in school pursuing my BS (pun?) degree in Business Administration. I'm hoping to graduate before I petrify. I guess my goal is to eventually become a high school teacher (math) as it's something I think I'd be awesome at and something I would love to do.

I’m really good at

Ug. Obviously not at writing about myself if I'm struggling this much... I keep staring at the screen, then the walls, dang I was hoping they would have let me off the hook on this question already... so stalling won't work here I guess. lol Um, let's see... well I am good at Math. I am good at fixing things. I can change a tire in about ten minutes. I'm good at understanding how things work and analyzing systems and discovering patterns. I'm good at offering advice to my friends. Oh and I'm really good at eating! lol I usually try to leave things a little better than I found them and I'm good at that.

The first things people usually notice about me

I'm pretty gregarious in social situations usually- especially with people I know. I'm told I'm very confident (never underestimate the ability to fake it!) I usually have foot in mouth syndrome because I don't always say the most 'pc' thing in situations although I always strive for the truth. Oh and there's not really any off limit subjects with me. I enjoy discussing pretty much anything and everything. Fun (and possibly dangerous) things to discuss are of course the big three: sex, politics, and religion. :) I'm fairly ambitious, usually optimisitic, genuine, loyal, and always try to be there when people need me.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Favorite book series of all time is Dune. I own a TON of books. I like Anne Rice, Christopher Rice, Terry Brooks, Anne McCaffrey, Mary Renault, Christopher Paolini, Dan Savage, the Harry Potter Series, the His Dark Materials series, of course Frank Herbert. Movies and TV are usually either Discovery channel, history channel, military channel or sci fi. TV series selections would be West Wing, Scrubs (was told by a few friends that I'm like Dr. Cox), Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek TNG, and Voyager. Movies would be: Matrix Trilogy, V for Vendetta, Lord of the Rings, Kill Bill, Legally Blonde, To Wong Fu, Star Wars, Star Trek, Galaxy Quest, Serenity, Contact, Powder, Office Space, Clerks, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Patriot, Master and Commander, Transformers, Dracula, and both Legally Blondes, just to name a few. Music ranges all over the place but I like stuff from the 80's and up. Not much of a fan of rap- or anything that I don't understand the words to or can't sing along to. A few I can think of: The Killers, Jason Mraz, James Blunt, Taylor Swift, Trisha Yearwood, Melissa Etheridge, Lady Gaga, Garth Brooks, Sarah McLachlan, Colbie Callait, One Republic, and Martina McBride. Ah food... I can't say that there's a lot of food that I don't like (clearly) but I guess my favorites are mexican food (nachos!), fresh baked bread, and cheesey stuff. lol I try to be reasonable with that stuff because I don't want the save the whales society to take interest in throwing me in the ocean or anything...

The six things I could never do without

Wit, intelligent conversation, hope, air conditioning :P, friends, and food. Material things aren't really that important to me any more.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Why things are the way they are and then what I can do about them. The Universe. How things work. My life and what I'm doing with it. The stuff I watch on tv. Questions that people ask me so I can find the answers. Problems that other people have so I can learn from their mistakes. My brain is usually always going... How the truth is sometimes subjective. Why people let their fears rule them. Whether I'd rather be lovingly forgotten or bitterly remembered... lol.

On a typical Friday night I am

Doing dinner with friends or chilling at home. I don't really do the 'scene' and one of my favorite things to do is just get together with friends. I don't really drink, smoke, or do mind altering substances- and trust me you don't want to see this try to dance. lol Although I do like to tear up some karioke once in a while. :)

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Heck I don't know... I'm kind of private but I'll tell ya anything you want to know once I get to know ya. Just be prepared for the answer if you're going to ask the question. :)

You should message me if

You don't take yourself or life too seriously (I mean no one gets out alive) and you don't get hung up on goofy stuff.
You like to live in a drama free zone.
Anything on my profile sparks your interest.
"Never Give Up, Never Surrender!" is your personal mantra.
You are one of the final five.
Te interesa ser mi amigo (o mas.)
You think Sheriff Joe is the anti-christ.
You can't think of a good reason not to...

Oh, and I'm not a gym rat and have no desire to be. (please don't read that as I have no understanding of what 'healthy' means) If you're scared off because I don't look like Channing Tatum then save us both the time because people come as a package deal. ;)
