I am smart, funny, witty, adventurous, impulsive, silly, sarcastic, affectionate, caring, loyal, and above all humble! I know a little bit about alot of stuff and can hold my end of a conversation.

I often do things on the spur of the moment, like skydiving for the first time on Friday the 13th. Someone asked if I wanted to go and without hesitation said "give me a minute to change my clothes" Of course it was nearly my last day on earth, but hey, it was fun!

I absolutely adore animals and who ever I end up with should too. I like kids of all ages and most of them like me as well. I often find myself playing with the kids in a gathering rather than the adults. Guess I'm a kid at heart!

I love the summer and going to fests and outdoor concerts. I hate winter and I have no idea why I still live in the Chicago area. I suppose it's because my family is here and they are very important to me.

I workout because I'm supposed to, not particularly because I like it. I'm sure I'd like it more if I had a partner to keep things interesting and fun. As long as you don't start throwing weights at me yelling "catch!"

For those of you who didn't look up at the top, I want to mention that I do smoke. So if that bothers you, go on ahead to the next person. There is no sense in being with someone you want to change in any way.

I'm looking for someone who is down to earth, funny, who loves animals and has a positive attitude. A guy who's intelligent and can hold his end of a conversation. Someone to be my best friend and partner in crime. Someone to cuddle on the couch with, and play in the rain with. To share life's big and little experiences with. I am totally drama free, don't need it, don't want it, so please don't bring it.

Physical attraction is very important, of course there has to me more to a relationship, but there has to be some chemistry. For those of you that think this is shallow, let me ask you this...when is the last time you were out and walked up to someone you found unattractive, because they might have a nice personality?

I think on our first date, we should do something light and fun with no pressure. We could simply meet for a couple of drinks, maybe a game of darts or pool. Maybe go bowling...haven't done that in a while. Or since it's going to be snowing soon, go sledding or skiing. Save the dinner date until we know we like each other, otherwise we could end up sitting across from each other for two hours with nothing to say.
