I love books more than TV, letters more than text messaging, Jesus more than religion, my family and friends more than my career, my career more than creature comforts, dogs more than cats, coca cola more than alcohol, and music more than most anything. =) If that makes me "old fashioned" - then I'll wear that moniker with pride.

I'm really good at filling in the blanks more than free-form self descriptions, so I'll steal the following from that "other free internet dating site." =)

THINGS I LIKE:
Food: Southern (if only Cracker Barrel & a real Chick fil a were in the city!), Japanese, Ice Cream

Books: Blue Like Jazz, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, The Harry Potter Books, anything Austen or Fitzgerald. Just finished 'Sophie's World,' and I have a LONG list of books in queue - from pillars of classic literature to books on quantum physics. Have something great to recommend? I'll probably read it.

Movies: Impromptu, Walk the Line, The Princess Bride, Gone With the Wind, It's a Wonderful Life, Amelie, The Philadelphia Story, all (and by all I mean "most") things Christopher Guest, Muppets, Disney, and several more that I am too wise to admit to on here. ;)

TV: I don't tend to watch a lot of television (especially primetime) as I'm usually out and about. However, I am a total PBS nerd. I also like both incarnations of The Office and have a soft place in my heart for several late 80's - early 90s sitcoms.

Music tastes are too extensive and broad to list, but let's just say my ipod represents almost all genres except gangsta rap & heavy metal

I also REALLY love Vespas!


And yes, It's true that I'm already serious about my relationship to another man. I call him the Big JC, most call him Jesus. But if you call on me, I hope you've also called on him.

However, lest you not prejudge, the above statement does not mean that I am any of the following: a prude, a pushover, a republican, uneducated, meek, or unadventurous. I defy stereotypes and embrace them at the same time. But, no, I'm not a Gemini. ;)

I'm a big fan of the coffee house soiree, as long as that coffee house isn't Starbucks. Then, who knows? Surprise me....
