I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Six little chipmunks sitting on a branch. Eating all the peanuts on my uncles ranch. You know that old wise tale from the sea.
If you want to be my friend and I don't know you send me a message first before trying to add me. Come on, break the ice. I like to know my friends. Pretty much otherwise I won't add you.
Laughing is good. Thats probably how I get my biggest workout.
Likes: Surfing, biking, tennis, badminton, frisbee, dodgeball, dancing until awkwardly sweaty, eating large amounts of Twix; these are my favorite sports. Other quick interests are thrift store shopping, playing guitar/piano, watching movies, meeting new people, chasing around my geese, dancing when nobody is looking, screaming at stingrays and seals, laying in large fields of grass, talking to myself, and being the finest He-bitch in your Manstable.
Dislikes: Leprachauns, train horns, mayonaise, sea creatures that be frontin', insomnia, the necessity of cell phones, the state of things, my loud-ass know it all goose, ignorant people, people that look at me askance, and that monster of a man that tried to kill me in Tanzania.
Park that car, drop that phone, sleep on the floor, dream about me.

My Interests

Music, Guitar/Guitar Hero, Piano, Surfing, Netflix, The Reader Crossword, Making Cut-Offs From Old Pants, Wrastling My Geese, Ducks, Newcastle, Traveling, Ping Pong, Nature, Red Wine, Tennis, Riding My Bike, Martha Stewart, Goofing Around, Change (And I don't mean coins), Good Conversation, Building Things, Walks/Drives With No Destination, Penguins, Photography, Stargazing and the Universe.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who has a black belt in keepin' it real. Fun people that like to laugh and can make me laugh. Anyone that has survived MXC's teetering tower of crippling doom.
