Hurm... who am i?
i am indeed a geek, and im damn proud of it. my t-shirt collection confirms.
i have a ton of hobbies, and almost as many friends.
i have a job, a registered & insured vehicle, pets and a mortgage.
i love horror films, but real blood freaks the crap out of me.
i have a vintage Centipede arcade game, and it does not require quarters to play.
i enjoy reading, music, movies and sports.
i play ice hockey, yet i still have all my own teeth.
i vote, but i am not politically inclined.
i write, but almost never use CAPS.
i cook like a madman, and give away leftovers.
i use slang, but i love reading the dictionary.
i love neon but am uncomfortable in bars.
i think im obnoxious, but my friends say i should have my own radio show.
i become anti-social at thanksgiving, but i make a damn good brined turkey.
i like to travel but i am annoyed with travelling.
i can be stubborn, but i am also a great listener.
i loathe sitcoms, but am admittedly a reality TV junkie. go figure...
i have been known to take a long lunch break and go see a matinee... by myself.
i played bass in a rock band in the 80s, but the parachute pants have been thrown out.
i have a tendency to keep my distance, but i guess its just a self-preservation tactic. and if you gain my trust, i can be one of the more trustworthy and reliable friends you might ever have.
despite my sarcastic exterior, i really do care about the feelings of others, and i am a very loyal person to my bestest of friends.

hurm.. seriously? a first date? whatever constitutes a DATE is open for debate, but i will save that for another time. i do not have a ridiculously superficial or materialistic checklist of traits that i require from the other humans that i choose to deal with. that said, i would like to meet a nice, independant, single girl who likes to laugh, enjoy movies, a glass of wine and good food. i think that would be a good place to start for meeting someone new. laughter cures a great deal, and i try to do it daily. i cause a lot of trouble in the office where i work, and sophomoric humor will always crack me up. WARNING: i often curse like a sailor. Be warned.
