i'm dark, deep & introspective with an offbeat biting sense of (sarcastic) humor. if you're looking for typical, it's two doors down & just past the garden gnome, sorry. if you're looking for uniquely intelligent, sexually mischievous & cognitively intriguing, keep reading.

i'm exceptionally rational but with a dangerous romantic core; concurrently the most complex yet most simple person you'll ever meet; detailed; sensual; unconventional; fair & decent person; rational; sexually open and intense; mensan; aspie; logical; and, entertaining. i'm also a dead on intj, though this system has me down as off from that - slightly. i'm also very picky.

i'm in very good shape and play volleyball regularly. you'll find me more of a homebody; not really a partier. off-beat movies are the ones i prefer. i ponder the nature of the universe and what preceded the big bang, objective right and wrong, and let's not forget the origins of religion and the mass psychosis that it really is (hey, let's call a spade a spade).

i'm a very good & giving boyfriend. i try, even if i don't always succeed.

my collection of (rock) music is both diverse & extensive (ipod included). i'm learning to bbq; sushi is one of my favorite foods. (don't barbecue sushi, trust me.) my new apartment takes up a lot of my time; i've modified it to reflect my personality. people who have seen are f-ing impressed with what i've created.

npr is pretty cool & so are craig ferguson's monologues. i observe & analyze people & have been since i was a kid. i've got a really good memory for numbers & dates; i can calendar count.

i don't look (or act :)) my age.

i love animals & they love me. i've rescued cats from the street. i've fed packs of stray dogs while on vacation. i also donate a lot to animal charities.

oh, i used to be a type a personality . . . but i quit because the meetings were too slow.

oh, my profile is in need of one correction. ask and ye shall receive.

as for what i'm looking for, well . . .

the atypical: a really intelligent, rational, cute, introspective, non smoking, sexually open/experimental woman who doesn't want/have kids. i tend to go for dark with a natural look, focusing on eyes, teeth and skin, by the way -- but not always. i get along best with those who are extremely intelligent and also logically driven.

i'd like someone who wants to spend a lot of time with their partner, hanging out with friends, going to dinner, entertaining, playing sports, watching tv -- whatever. i'm very, very giving but i'm also difficult to match for something permanent. oh, and i'm not so much into the seemingly rampant wanderlust that is pervasive amongst our peers.

i'm turned on by good grammar and the ability to keep up with rapid/sarcastic banter. to me it's a reflection of intelligence.

into music and/or volleyball would be a bonus, but not essential by a long shot. liking cats is a must, though. oh, and politically, if you're pro-bush/right wing, it won't work on a permanent basis; please inquire about temporary placements. :)

lastly, someone who will spend time to learn about what makes me cognitively different.

oh, fyi - i don't drink because i don't like the taste of alcohol and never did.

on my ideal first date i'd like to fulfill my ultimate sexual fantasy which involves
17 really hot people, one motel room, a bottle of cat tranquilizers, 150 pounds of crushed ice, a scalpel, a swiss bank account and the kidney transplant list.

in a pinch, i'm willing to forego the transplant list if i've got some imported oregano and a bottle of balsalmic vinegar.

okey dokey then.

the short answer is simple: talk. the setting can vary but i want to learn about the other person and let her learn about me. then we can see if there's compatibility, attraction, interest, chemistry, physics, biology, english, social studies, study hall, hall and oates, wild oats to sew, do-re-me-fa-so, so what, whatever.
