I guess I'm a shy extrovert. A bit of a bonvivant who enjoys cooking and entertaining. I have felt fulfilled raising my two boys as polite, respectful clowns. Let's take certain things deadly seriously but others with the insignificance they deserve. Let's keep a reasonable perspective on the real landscape of our lives; for me that means deep human relations and a commitment
to its happy continuation in step with the non-human world.
Do you think that sounds a little serious? Remember that finding the light and ridiculous part of all this stuff is where much of the fun is.

A little nitty-gritty to save everyone some time: I'm a tradesman with an intellectual bent, I'm not a cat person (perhaps because I don't have one and my neighbour has 49 of them), professional sports (except golf) seem boring to me, I like art and architecture, romance, love, dancing...communicating.

You never know what part of town someone is from. Maybe try to find an agreeable spot between nous memes.
