About Me


I bring the noise, and provided it's fiscally responsible, bring the funk as well.
I often tell stories without a point. I have an ironic & dry sense of humor. I love orange popsicles. I'm intense. I ask a lot of questions, because I genuinely want to know MORE. I dig people who wear Chuck Taylors. I have high expectations for everything, including you. I'm really direct/blunt. I don't think your picture of you & your beer is cool. I have 'Idiosyncratic Capitalization' & punctuation. I'm an open book if you read between the lines. I dance around when I'm by myself. I like the sound of the keys on my laptop. I've always wanted to be the subject of someone else's artwork. I love travelling, and plain, bland food. I have one speed - FAST. I'm a touch dramatic: It's mitigating with age. Occasionally, I'm shy. I should've been a doctor, but I just watch medical dramas instead now. I like bright colors. You have to get to know me.
Other things I like: The NBC ding dong, croissants, economists, linguists, chefs, artists, scientists, astrology, Pixar movies, biology,good strong backrubs, my FBI coffee cup, filet mignon, having a tiny car, going for long walks (anywhere), pin-up art, down comforters, the smell of new books, wikipedia
Oh,and if I have to chase after you to get an email, phonecall, whatever - you're prolly going to get deleted. Sorry, but I don't have time for that......... One more thing: I'm not setting you up with any of my friends, so don't ask.

My Interests
