Diving into the fray

About Me

Definitely very easy going. LOVE meeting people who love to learn, try new things, and basically make the most what they have. Serious turn-offs are people who constantly insist that they're "too busy" to do anything until, oh, five weeks from now. PuLEASE. LOL! Nobody works 24-7 and if you do, well, congrats, you're officially a workaholic! ;) If you're not having any fun, going to shows, movies, bars, restaurants, or more or less enjoying what a city like NY has to offer. . .I gotta wonder what's the point in being here? I'm the type that will try anything once. Lived abroad in for five years and that was amazing. Came back and it's been a wild ride (good time and bad) ever since. Most of my friends are married, engaged, and otherwise coupled up, so I thought I'd give the online thing a shot. Write, send a smoke signal, whatever! ;) It'd be nice to hear from you. And please make sure to have a photo posted, or one to email. Thanks! ........

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Someone who is interested in meeting someone else to spend time with . ..see where it goes! Gotta have a great sense of humor to be with me. . and be a great communicator. Here's a hint: Guys (all guys!) REALLY appreciate it when you say what's on your mind. You want us to be just a booty call? Say it! You want to be just friends because the spark isn't there? Let us know. (See where I 'm going with this?) Call me idealistic here. . .but dating is not rocket science. If you say what's on your mind (and yes. .. I'm talking about guys doing the same thing as well!) then at least you know what's going on. I think the problems come when one person assumes they "know" what the other person is thinking. The mother of all problems comes when someone says to the other, "I knew/know what you were/weren't thinking." YIKeS! Seriously! That's the mother of all assumptions. . and of course. .we're invariably wrong. Not into long, protracted emailing back and forth. If you think you fit the bill. . .write! It'd be good to hear from ya!

Music:

Grew up in a musical family so tastes are eclectic. Love classic rock, jazz, blues, classical, New Age, World. . . .more or less anything. Pandora.com rocks.

Movies:

Anything, really. Foreign flicks, the testosterone-ish action movies, dramas, sci-fi, the works. Love movies. Definitely one of the better points about being in NYC.

Television:

Addicted to Scrubs (hysterical) and 24.

Books:

The Power of Now, The Tipping Point, Way of the Peaceful Warrior, The Prophet, Letters to a Young Poet, The Tao of Pooh, others.Here's the deal: I'll read mostly anything. (Not so much fiction these days, but more or less anything.) Was an English education major in college, so my tastes really run the gamut.

Heroes:

Hemmingway (the guy did EVERYTHING!)
