so i had all this deep meaningful stuff typed here and i realized, it doesnt really matter because most of the guys who are going to email me are just looking for a hook up anyway and dont really care about how deep and intelligent i really am. if you are one of those guys..stop reading now and find some moron with low self esteem to text message late into the night: im not the type of girl.

I teach special education at the high school level. I have degrees in English and history and I am going part time to get a masters in special education. I have a pit bull and live with 3 others (family dogs). If you are scared of big dogs, if you think pits are evil, or if you hate animals in general leave me alone. I have no tolerance for ignorant people who are going to ask me to lock my dog up everytime they come over.

Ive been a "writer" for most of my life and have had work published. I love black and white photography and would like to get back into it. I love the great outdoors, hiking, the fall, and going on adventures. Id love to see the world and travel all over in a more modest capacity than 4 star hotels and on ocean liners. I love to cook and i love to eat. I am active and healthy but not obessed with the gym. If you are a vegetarian, an extreme fitness guru, or any other member of the population that fears or avoids a good meal and some wine or beer i dont think we will get along.

i am a nerd to the core. i love triva games. its the only time i get super competitive. I will watch sports, but dont have any die hard team affiliations. im the worlds worst bowler and enjoy every second i suck at it.

I know what i want, and i know who i am. I have two tattoos and a few piercings. i am very liberal about EVERYTHING. I believe in self expression and acceptance.

i guess im just me...and if you want to get to know my crazy, eccletic self drop me an email.

I have a very strong personality and tend to take the lead when others refuse to. My ideal first date is one where the guy takes charge and tells me where we are going and what we are doing. I need someone who isnt going to back down when I push, and someone willing to take charge of the situation so I can hang back and enjoy the ride. I also really like a guy who knows how to be a geek. Loosen up, have a good time, and let your inner dork free. its the only way to live :) Lets do something crazy like get a tattoo or pierced, thats a fun way to get to know someone lol
