About Me

I have great friends. They are all brilliant and magnificent and unique – they are un-boring, they are creative and they have style, they challenge me, they broaden my world and they make me laugh. They are bitingly sarcastic but without a hint of meanness – I do go for the irreverent and ironic. They care about the important things which I suppose is a presumptuous thing to say (assuming i know what the important things are – just ask me if you want to know)– the important things tend to fall in the very liberal side of the spectrum.My family is the foundation of all that I am. They are my rock and there is nothing I wouldn't do for them. I speak to my sister every day.Would it be shallow of me to say such a thing like "my iPod has improved the quality of my life"? I love my iPod.Recently bought a motorcycle – it is the cat's ass - or possibly something less vulgar that conveys that I totally dig it. "No zeal like the zeal of the convert" as they say.– and caused a few scary situations) I just love it even more.The last thing that made me bust out laughing was in an episode of Flight of the Concords, Bret was wearing a pair of gloves that look like hands... I want gloves that look like handsAbout 5 years ago I joined a volunteer group called Engineers Without Borders (I'm an engineer in my everyday life here). I get to use all this engineering knowledge I’ve gained and I get to put it to use for something other than my job - my efforts go toward real, immediate change for people who have no resources, and also, the world becomes my personal erector set – awesome. I’ve been going on at least 2 trips a year for these projects in Central and South America. They are humbling, rewarding, terrifying and thrilling, and bonus... there are always hammocks, and I’ve been promising myself after every trip I’d get a hammock as soon as I get home. Finally did it, had to construct an additional support post on my deck (may get a call from my association on that) but finally got the hammock - it rocks, it will be well used this summer.I have learned to live life boldly, take some risks, raise my expectations of myself and I find that i have stories worth telling. I have some crazy-cool stories and I can tell them well. The best stories are when things go wrong, or when an obstacle presents itself that seems too big to resolve, when the things you couldn’t possibly have predicted to happen … happen. Like when the land you are working on is "invaded" by squatters, or when the entire mountain you are on catches on fire and you hope it doesn’t cross the river. I love the ups and the down equally. I also love being lazy. I work hard on the things I am passionate about and then I’ll watch a bunch of garbage TV.I recently caught the opening scene of Blade Runner (it's been a while). It's the year ***which at this point isn't that far off) and it was raining. They have flying cars and robots that can pass as humans. But, what I noticed was that umbrella technology had not progressed at all... really? c'mon, ***and still the same clumsy wind catcher? Also, the future is very crowded.

    Man. 41 years old. Zodiac sign: Taurus.

    Looking for: woman. In age: 38-48

    If you could choose between 2 relationships: the first one guarantees a long life and with that comes security. Security in every sense including no divorce. Although, it is tried and true, long and steady you and your spouse will only have very little excitement day in and day out. Long life, finacial security and never worrying about divorce; theyll always be there. You come home to 'hi Hon, how was your day?' On occasion you travel and eat at a nice restaurant. The second life is life in the fast lane and full of adventure. You and the love of your life are mostly doing something new and exciting. You are going out often and having fun with each-other and friends. The two of you are hopelessly in love and count the seconds you are apart. When you come home more times than not there is something special planned for you. He treats you like you are the only girl in the world. But there is one catch; this relationship only lasts 5 years.....and ends in tragedy.I am ready to start living life after spending my years serving as a pay check and living out the first scenario. Life is too short to go on unhappy as selfish as that sounds. Marriage should be about sharing lives together not merely co-existing. Relationships take work from both; don't take each-other for granted. It will fail. After working to save something neither of us wanted, we decided it was time. I'm looking for another shot at it eventually, but I now know what I want and what I'm looking for. Better to have a short meaningful love than a long relationship that serves more as a security blanket, which feels like a long slow death.I am witty, quick on my feet and like to laugh! I am handy as I finished my basement to include the electrical and plumbing. I also laid the bamboo flooring on the main level. However, I'd just assume live on a postage stamp and use my money for going places and doing things as these make for better memories. I will stop and help someone with a flat tire and you can expect me to be in the middle of something should it go sideways in my presence. I am also not shy about pointing out all of your great features and I like someone who can be confident about those features and not let the imperfections get them down; we all have them and it is a lie to believe otherwise. Having said that, I also believe in taking care of yourself including the corns on the feet and not bitting on your nails. I am attracted to women with attractive hands, feet and hips. These three elements are where women are most eloquent. I also like to take a woman by the small of her back.I can be trained to a degree and am always up for experiencing new things and culture. I don't claim or pretend I have done it all. So show me something you like to do and I am game!Surprisingly enough I do like to shop for clothes. I think it is fun to do with someone you find to be hot. Sometimes I like to just go out and people watch while nursing some rum or vodka. I like to go to the club and get out on the floor. I drink when I go out, but not to the point of embarrasment. I am in excellent shape and enjoy weight training and sprinting for my workouts. I like hip hop (even though the artists are usually a bunch of mopes), rock such as SKILLET and TFK. I'll even listen to SOME country and 80's, 90's to current. I am a concert goer and don't believe in standing around at one. I really enjoy comedy and sci-fi. I also like COD. I enjoy the outdoors and the sun! I have a career but plan on my business helping me to transition out of it. I like the night life. I like a female who takes care of her physique, is a little bold about being hot and wears heals from time to time. I am fashionable wether its going out for the night or to Walmart. I am physical in the sense I like to embrace and touch outside of the bedroom. This is important because you never know what life will throw at you in the next minute. For the moment I am interested in getting to know you by chatting. Then if things go well....you'll need a paint brush. If you *** I don't respond it is because I am uninterested and I get too many messages to address all of them, so my apologies. Also, I have kids but don't plan on meeting them until you and I are established. Oh, and if you are bad with money don't bother. I'm NOT doing that again. Or first date would likely be drinks somewhere with a good bar. We will chat and laugh and see about maybe going out and make some noise. We won't go so far as to get arrested, but it will be close! XD .....or coffee....but if we go a second time be ready to pick up a brush as we paint the town red! XD
