I’m a freelance writer who honestly believes we're just artifacts of the random motion of sub-atomic particles. Unfortunately, i've found that this belief is of only limited utility when having one’s prostate examined or answering the question “Do I look fat in this?”I’m passionate about ideas; interested in almost everything. I can talk intelligently about things I know absolutely nothing about. Except hockey.’s knees were still good. I’m open to new ideas, activities and experiences. When not checking ten times to make sure the oven’s off and the door’s locked, I have mastered a zen-like calm.Much to my surprise, I have discovered that I actually do suffer fools well. This means that I will be able to get along with those friends of yours that you’ve had so long that you can’t really remember why they’re your friends. As well as family members who get shunted off to the “I don’t know where to put them” table at weddings.I’m reserved, rather than gregarious. Loyal, supportive and undemanding, without a hint of jealousy. I do, however, insist on honestly answering questions asked of me, on the generally false assumption that an honest answer is desired. I will repeat this, even immediately after suffering the consequences of the first answer. It’s a feature, not a bug.I’m pretty down to earth (which i think just means that I never have, and likely never will want to own a watch that costs more than my last car), easy going and undemanding. I can’t imagine life without bacon. I like kittens and hard liquor. I refuse to pay $12 for a drink in a martini shaped glass, even if it is an actual martini. The first book report I ever wrote, in Grade 4, was on a book by Mickey Spillane. I have been known to give a copy of “The Myth of Sisyphus” to babies as birthday presents. I also have a fondness for actuaries.There is one particular Red-winged Blackbird in High Park who insists on attacking me every time I walk past his tree. Finally, sitting by a lake with a bottle of Jack on a clear moonless night, the milky way tucked in around me, is the kind of artifact I can truly celebrate.So, what am I looking for? Either someone who, based on my picture, thinks I’m hot, or someone who finds the above appealing. Someplace well-lit and with metal detectors, given that, in my experience, quasi-intellectual women are usually packing heat. Or we could just go for a coffee or a drink on a patio.

I am a divorced father of two, and they are both good kids! Two girls so don't ask me if I'm in touch with my feminine side..lol!I've gone thru a lot in the past few years, some very good, some not so good but I stay positive and love to have fun! Family is the best, no matter what! I like to be around positive and happy people as I am one of them. Someone that can be a partner as well respecting each others lives. You must love animals, I have a dog and cat and of course, they are family : ) I am looking for someone that is positive and upbeat. Must have a playful personality and are able to forget what their real age is. Ok, deleted the rest! Have to keep something back ; Coffee first and likely a long chat to get to know each other. Or better, a nice outdoor patio with a cool drink to help us relax. This will be a much easier question to answer after I have talked to you and gotten to know you a bit : ) The first meeting is not the first date.

Where am I at? Better yet, where am I going?Like the title says, Time for a change, I'm getting restless.I'd like... a lot of things actually, lol, ok whats realistic? I'm at a place right now where just about anything is possible. I have some loose ends to tie up, then hopefully, on to my next adventure. I've been sitting on this bus long enough, time to ring the bell and get off to see whats at the next stop.Thoughts: a move is possible, I can work anywhere. Travel, can never do enough of that. Play hockey, golf, etc., I miss yoga (so do my muscles and my mind). Socializing, my friends are all over the place now.Dating/relationships, there's an interesting subject. I'm not desperate but it sure would be nice to have someone in my life again. It could certainly alter or shape my puzzle differently. That stuff takes time thought (as it should), I suppose it would depend on the person how long that would take to figure out.My hope is you can say the same. I'm not perfect and I don't expect perfection. I'm not 20 anymore and it shows (although i have to keep reminding myself of this), but I am fit, athletic and make some effort to take care of myself. I don't generally feel or act what the calendar won't let me otherwise deny. I try not to be too judgmental. Heck as long as your always wearing a smile, what more could I ask for.p.s. I am smoking again, but working on giving it up. We all have our flaws, momentary or otherwise. I'll cut you some slack too.OK, lots more to figure out. I'm looking forward to seeing how it comes out though. Anything from sharing a drink somewhere, or a walk, to some other leisure or athletic activity.
