In short, a nice, good looking, down-to-earth person to date. The headline is rather generic I know, but when I think of a better one, I'll put it up. This profile is also a work in progress.

I enjoy all types of music with the exception of country. I've tried to get into it, but I just can't listen beyond perhaps a song or two. I tend to listen more to rock/funk/soul/jazz music. However, if there is a good show and the music sounds good, I'm game.

I'm looking to go back to grad school and obtain a Master's in Public Administration.

I'm trying to head to South Africa for the World Cup 2010, that is going to be one of those "experiences of a lifetime", so I'm looking forward to that.

It's not the fanciest of dating issues, but politically I'm leftist/moderate, and I would prefer you would be too. It prevents a lot of arguments that way. In regards to religion, I guess I would be Zen agnostic.

I'm just not a fan of drama, it's simply a distraction.

Basically, I'm a full time working professional not too far removed from college navigating the working world. I'm always trying to update the profile and there is more to me than what is just on here so send me a message if you would like to chat.

Of course the date always depends on the type of person, but one thing I would do is meet at a local coffeehouse, have some coffee/tea and chat. However, trying a new restaurant (depending if we agree on the type of food) would be great for a formal date. Going to a local concert and having a drink while listening to great music is great as well.
