First impression? Wow! Now I'm feeling pressured. Couldn't we just take a test? Something 3rd grade level? I'm almost certain I'm smarter than a 3rd grader. Fine, Ya'll get a taste. Promise not to use ketchup?

Yeah, friends first, but I'm ultimately lookin for my last girlfriend/wife. Currently, I can count the number of close friends on one hand and they're all women. Is that weird? I just find it easier to relate. Ok, that does sound weird. Maybe it's just that I know men, but find women more fascinating. Who doesn't, right?

Now that we've got that out of the way... I'm going through a lot of transitions. I'm making changes in the business, beginning to remodel my home, and getting my ass back in the gym. I've got a good base to work with in each of these areas and I'm excited with the process, hoping to share my experience with someone who enjoys healthy challenges and the moments of peace afforded by our efforts.

I'm a laid-back yet energetic man. I'm open-minded and opinionated. I love easily, welcoming many into my experience, sharing much of whom I am, but I'm selective with whom I invite intimately into my life. In other words, "flirtatious and fun but not easy". I like to eat healthy, exercise regularly and enjoy daily.

I'm doing well sorting though my baggage, tossing out the tattered, outgrown, not-my-style, not-worn-in-6-months. Not afraid of being thought gay or straight. What? You know what I mean. It’s not as easy as it sounds. Ever try to be a strong man without hurting someone else or sensitive without hurting yourself? I have purchased some of my clothes from a “gay” men’s clothing catalogue, so that doesn't help my tough, manly, “Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man” image. You'll get it when we meet.

My desire is to find a woman who complements me. I need her to be strong yet soft, crazy and sane, sweet, opinionated, intelligent, humble, adventurous, slender and sexy.

Does that paint a picture?

We're not going to fall in love on the first date. Yeah, that would be nice, but you won't know how bad you've got it for me, until at least date 3. ;) Let's start with havin a drink, possibly playin pool, meeting at the book store, takin a stroll, rockin out to something "worthy" and/or any other cliche that allows you to feel comfortable and us to "taste" the goods.
