Beavers Beavers--CHEW CHEW CHEW!

About Me

I'm a pretty open guy...looking to have a good time, make friends and just live the cowboy way...Loyal, Honest, Sincerely, Caring, (did I say honest?), Passionate, Creative, Loving, Intense, Fun-Loving, Enthusiastic...Some of the groups that I identify with, in no particular order: Men, women, uncle, brother, son, thinker, creator, lover, fighter, cheerleader (GO Pirates!), frat boy, teacher, counselor, educator, best friend, friend, mentor, mentee, native american, irish, german, first gen college student, international student, adult learner, supervisor, supervisee, fag, activist, dyslexic, traditional, "the marrying kind", democrat, ambassador, leader, follower, christian, program-friendly (Lois and I are tight), pet owner, listener, talker, photographer, singer, writer, risk-taker, traveler, movie-goer, dreamer, doer....That's a start anyway *G*I think I'm still a work in progress...open to trying new things and seeing where life takes you...my HP has a plan and I'm just here to see what the next stop on my life, the highway, is going to be...Opening to trying new things and having new experiences. As of late, my life hasn't been one that forded me the opportunity to be all that sponteneous, but I'm going to work on that and try to remember how life was before things got too fast and so busy that I had forgotten what my priorities are (not totally forgotten, but not looked to as often as I once had).Recently moved to Boston after 5 years in LA (Last week of July). I lead an active life and need someone who can keep up. I'm educated, imaginative, stable, and passionate about every aspect of my life. I’m originally from the islands of NC—not that you could really tell—and on occasion, there’s still a hint of a southern accent. I’m a "hopeful" romantic, and dare I say, easy to talk to. I can have fun doing most anything, if not, then why do it? I'm fairly open to anything, and will try anything once.My passions are movies (Clue is my favorite-bonus points if you can quote it!), traveling, and camping. I love line-dancing too…which you probably think is really weird, but it’s ueber fun if you’re up for it. On weekends, I visit theme parks whenever I get a chance. I normally have fun doing most anything--if not, then why are you doing it? Still exploring Boston, riding the T, trying to figure out the city and it's parking (or lack there of!)I’m a optimist by nature, and an advocate by trade; young at heart, free in spirit and believe that everything in life happens for a reason.Ok, so, some of you have asked if it was me in the music video on Logo, "I Like Mike." Well, it's true, it is me in the video. Long story short, my friend and long-time 2step buddy, Jay Spears, asked me to be in his music video a few years ago...and you guessed it, it's so popular that it's still playing on Logo! I just found it on youtube, so I figured that I'd share it with those who haven't seen it yet...(or care to enjoy the shower scene again...lol) Oh, and if you listen closely, at the end of the video, you can totally hear me groan when one of the guys jumped on me....it's quite comical...Enjoy!..

I'd like to meet:

anyone cool...someone who knows what they want out of life and has some sense of direction...if not put together, than at least working towards it... I'm also looking to find old HS friends and those Pirates out there from ECU.As far as a potential partner... one that has his act together...can deal with sarcasm, quick witted, charming, has a killer smiles (dimples are a plus), is passionate about life, has direction and goals, believes that people have good inside of them--even if you have to look for it, "hopeful" romantic, understands the importance of communication, likes face time, knows what he can bring to the table and knows what commitment means... Ideally around my age, educated, independent, passionate, and have some sort of faith/spirituality. He'd be romantic, kind, honest, and loyal; comfortable within his own skin. Also, he has to have a life of his own, but still has enough room in there for us. I'm not looking for anyone to complete me, but what I'm really looking for is someone with his own circle that can overlap parts of it with mine. I want a friend, not just a boyfriend. My perception of an ideal relationship would be one that we didn't spend every waking moment together, but we would get an adequate amount of face time in a week. PDA, though not a huge part, would be nice--I'd like to be able to hold hands out and about and be comfortable with that. On weekends, we would go out, host a BBQ for friends, dine-in on some take-out, watch a scary movie and just chill out after a long week. Staying in, going out it's all good to me.
