It's not that I think my shit doesn't stink; it's that sometimes I actually enjoy the smell of shit. I'll let you tell me what you think that means exactly. :)

I have an awesome, adorable boyfriend and we're in a long term open-relationship that so far works pretty well as it helps provide us with the space to indulge our own fantasies and need for variety both intellectually and sexually. I've also successfully done monogamy in the past and think it's a totally viable choice for the right people.

I'm always looking to expand my circles on platonic and romantic fronts, and also to increase my intellectual and artistic networks. I've published a small novel, I've been running an indy theater company for years, and I've traveled to some pretty cool places.

That's the best stuff I can think of to write here.

Oh, I totally respect your right to go to Burning Man, but it's not my thing. Just for the record. :)

making plans and accomplishing goals

writing, arguing, telling stories, baking, oral sex, worrying, daydreaming, hiking long distances, pursuing things I'm interested in, conversation, kissing

My vocabulary. No really. My eyes. My smile. The fact that I look much better in person than in pictures.

Usually fairly busy or have nothing at all to do. Weekends for me seem to run the gamut that way. I keep having fantasies of "normal weekends" that are "just like everyone else". I don't have any real idea what that means.

Honestly, I'm a pretty open book. Just ask about it. I'm very loyal at heart but sexually a bit of a lusty marauder. I lean more towards gay, but enjoy women tremendously. I'm a huge fucking snob who is just the tiniest bit insecure about being so sincere all the time (everyone knows that being genuine is declasse). I'm a deeply wounded romantic waiting to be reborn.

You're interesting, unique, have something to say, follow through with stuff and can return phone calls in a timely fashion.
