About Me

I was born a poor black child. I grew up in Spring, TX in the same house my whole life until I left for college. Up until I had surgery last December, I had anosmia (the lack of a sense of smell, like being deaf but with your nose).
I know so much random movie trivia that it's on the verge of being sad. I love watching AWFUL horror movies with friends (ex. Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant Killer Snowman, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, etc) Words that describe me: laid back, trusthworthy, random, smartass, Christian, moral, caring, dependable, rational, honest, dork, night owl, barfly, huge Astros/Cowboys fanI went to Southwest Texas State University/Texas State University and graduated in 2004 Magna cum Laude. I just recently moved to Austin from Houston and I know all of no one.

My Interests

Watching TV, bowling, foosball, going to the movies, drinking, sleep, pool, jogging, using lots of commas, watching DVDs, wasting time on the internet, shopping (uh...in a totally heterosexual way of course), looking for a better job, eating out, hanging out with friends, going to bars/clubs

I'd like to meet:

I decided to take a break from dating for a while so now I'm just looking for fun people to go out to drink and hang out with. Just fun people in general.
