-I like country music. I've only been to one concert, but it was fun and I want to go to more.
-I like to cook with someone. It seems like too much work for myself, but with someone else it's fun and you can share the clean-up.
-I like to play volleyball. I don't necessarily need someone who could play with me, but someone who would at least come and watch and share in a sport I am passionate about would be nice.
-I like watching football with friends. It's a fun excuse to get a bunch of people together for a couple drinks.
-I like being able to have a conversation. I don't just agree to agree. If I have a point that is different, I like a friendly debate. I CAN admit when I'm wrong.
-I just finished getting my certificate in Massage Therapy and that is the area I will be working in soon. I Currently work in retail, and I have my bachelors degree in accounting and am a trained auditor....I just don't believe in doing something that will make you miserable for the rest of your life and that was me and accounting.
-I love kids
-I have been compared to Dane Cook by two separate people in the last 2 months. They both told me that was a good thing.
-Not that I was ever a negative person, but I really learned about the power of your own thoughts a couple years ago. It is a decision, that I have to make on a daily basis, to be happy.
-Been working out again (hard to do that with school and work, but now that school is over) and go 4-5 during the week.

-I am looking for a woman that is ready to give an equal amount into a relationship.
-I'm not looking for someone with baggage. I don't think that kids are baggage, but my experience so far is that the baby daddy/baby mommy relationship IS.
-Education isn't the most important thing, but having a future that you will be happy with is (ie: You have the ability/motivation/education to get there). Plus, being able to have an intelligent conversation about most anything would be nice.
-I'm not looking for someone who's perfect, but what's that line...She's not perfect, neither are you. But that's not what's important. It matters if you're perfect for each other. (What movie is that from) (might not be verbatim, but it's close.)

I would take suggestions on small restaurants, where we would have the opportunity to talk. Or (and?), if it's an option, hit up a bar for some darts or pool. I think the second date, when we would know each other a little bit and can joke around with more ease, I would do something more like mini golf or, um, or....hmmm.....something more active.
