About Me

Man..... I've put so much junk into the details sections of this profile, I'm not sure now what to put in this "main" section. So I guess, let me summarize:
I am the greatest, most awesomest person ever!
(**Note: Applies only for those who think people like me are the greatest, most awesomest people ever)
Well, OK... I'm a guy who's well into thirty-something but still likes to sometimes think & act like a kid. I love art & music and continually get frustrated at my inability to sucessfully make either one myself. I have an obscure sense of humor that tends to get me in trouble. Along with my crappy day job, I also run a small business out of the home that doesn't make much money, but that I hope one day will. I love to read but never seem to find the time to do it. I tend to be a bit of a grammar lawyer. My hobbies tend to be a bit on the nerdy/geeky side, but not to the point where I fall into the stereotypical nerd with horn-rimmed glasses and a pocket protector category.

My Interests



Seem to vary by the week, but among other things may include art, reading, board/card/rpg games, politics, entrepreneurialism (yeah, how many guys on MySpace know THAT word, I wonder), astronomy, pool, disc golf. Dipped my toes into trying to learn to dance at one time, would like to try again sometime, and I started biking again this year too.
I do like to catch a few games of football (DA Bearz / Raptors) and hockey (Icehogs!) now and then, but don't follow them religiously or anything. Ask me to name one or two players on a team... hell, in a LEAGUE, and I probably couldn't do it, but I still love watching.

I'd like to meet:

I'm back in the dating pool, but I've pretty much given up on the idea that the "perfect girl" for me is out there... Unfortunately most of my hobbies tend to be "guy things," and I'm attracted to "girlie girls," who are never into those "guy things."
Frankly just finding somebody with whom I can hold regular conversations without either of us being bored to tears would be absolutely splendid - however that still means that if you look over this whole page, and you're not interested in any of the same stuff I am... please don't contact me just because you think I'm cute. Trust me, it will only lead to disaster. (Just to toss this in here... I also won't hook up with anybody who's BP, who has more than one child, is more than a year older than myself, or is more than a half hour drive from here).
But I'll tell you what... as unlikely as it is, if you looked at this page and went "Holy crap this guy is cool!" (and you're not one of those droves of girls who are stuck on guys with tattoos and motorcycles for some reason, as I have neither...) certainly feel free to say hi :P

..table ..tr The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to obedience and warmth.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage.

In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You're feeling self centered. ..table What Are The Keys To Your Heart? ..tr Your Love Type: INFJ
The Protector

In love, you strive to have the perfect relationship.
For you, sex is nearly a spiritual experience, a bonding of souls.

Overall, you have high expectations for any relationship you're in.
However, you tend to hold back a part of yourself.

Best matches: ENTP and ENFP ..table What's Your Love Type? ..tr Your Love Style is Eros
For you, love is all about the passion!
And chances are, you're currently in love.
You have a strong physical response to love...
And you are great at committing
(As long as the person makes your toes curl!) ..table What's Your Love Style? ..tr Your Ideal Relationship is Serious Dating
You're not ready to go walking down the aisle.
But you may be ready in a couple of years.
You prefer to date one on one, with a commitment.
And while chemistry is important, so is compatibility. ..table What's Your Ideal Relationship?

Music:

I listen to a variety. I have a "make your own" station over at Pandora that has a mix of heavy rock (or nu-metal), blues rock, jazz, country, and a dash of Sinatra. I also listen to Celtic Rock quite a bit. Rap does not qualify as "music."

Movies:

Again a variety - SciFi/Fantasy (Serenity, Lord of the Rings, Princess Bride)... Artsy (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Science of Sleep)... a few classics (Casblanca, Breakfast at Tiffany's)... along with of course the occasional action-based watch-stuff-blow-up movie.

Television:

Eh don't watch it too much. I follow Lost & Battlestar Galactica, and started watching October Road, though it's new and we'll have to see how long it holds my attention. I can dig Discovery channel sometimes too.

Books:

Favorite authors are Neil Gaiman & Douglas adams, however my collection covers scifi/fantasy, horror, non-fiction, reference, and self-help (I have a hell of a lot of books and seem to keep obtaining more - I'd love to have a library room someday).

Heroes:
