My strongest trait is that I am very caring.. sometimes to a fault. I have been told that I am one of the best friends anyone can have because I am a very good listener, and I am honest and trustworthy. I do tend to get a bit guarded around new people, but give it time and I will warm up to them soon. I love to laugh, and I have a very sarcastic (and sometimes sick) sense of humor I am mostly a very organized person and I am very meticulous about anything I set my mind to. Quality over speed. Relationship-wise, I am very open with communication, always open to compromise, and I am very romantic and crave affection.

I absolutely love my close friends and they are like family to me. I will do anything to help them out with anything. I am also close to my family emotionally, yet unfortunately not close with them geographically... my parents live in Florida and always try to get me to move down there, but I would miss the changing of the seasons way too much... all the different colors of leaves in autumn, the beautiful blossoming in the spring, and SNOW (I love snow except when I have to drive in it)! Can you imagine Christmas with Palm trees?? I can't.

I am very laid-back when it comes to things I like to do for fun. I could go out with my friends for a night at a bar with live music or a club; or I could be just as happy staying in and reading or watching a movie or playing some card or board games. I am a bit of a nerd.. I love fantasy of all kinds (movies, books, just about anything). I bowl in a league once a week with my friends.. it's really nice to break the boredom of the work week. I LOVE watching movies. I have a very broad taste in movies, however I do tend to enjoy comedies and fantasy the most. A recent favorite was The Hangover.. I just could not stop laughing the entire movie!

Music is a big part of my life. I love to drive and always blast the music and sing along. I am also trying to learn how to play the guitar, but I'm still just a beginner working on the chords. Like my taste in movies, I also enjoy a broad spectrum of music. I do tend to gravitate more towards rock though. I love going to see live music at local bars or arenas (and the pit is a must!). What's being played on my Ipod the most recently is Creedence, Weezer, and Eagles of Death Metal.

Well I've rambled on about myself long enough. If there's anything else you would like to know about me, just send an email

usually meeting up for coffee or a drink or two provides the best way to talk and get to know each other. Perhaps dinner at a restaurant after that if things go well.
