Before I say anything, let me just say: make me laugh and I'm yours. I strive to find a man that can keep me entertained in that regard. Ok, here goes:My self-summary:Self-professed nerd with a heart of gold. Ok, maybe not solid gold, but would you believe gold plated? I'm typically very honest and up front about everything. I don't like keeping things inside; that's what my body parts are for :)Originally from So Cal, I like to laugh and learn and love and am doing my best to just enjoy life, despite crap that may get thrown my way.What I’m doing with my life:Livin' it! I don't know how to answer this one. Ummmm, well I'm trying to enjoy my life? Does that work? Are they asking for a five year plan here, or what?I’m really good at:Making people laugh. And laughing. Oh yeah, and graphic/web design. But mostly the laughing part.Work-wise, I am a freelance graphic & web designer with a marketing background that specializes in software user interface design. The economy has made it more difficult to keep the "freelance" aspect of my work as steady as it has been at its height, but I have been laid off from enough liquidating dot-com companies to realize that I have no desire to work for "the man" that has no vested interest in me. Being self-employed has allowed me to work on my self-discipline as well as allowed me to teach myself new aspects of my business I wouldn't have learned as an employee elsewhere. The one part of sole-proprietorship I will never like and never get used to is collections. I hate making collection calls; I wish everyone would just pay for the work they commissioned :(Anyway! Enough about my work! I like what I do, but this is not something that I focus on all the time. I AM able to separate business from pleasure.The first things people usually notice about me:I'm tall, and I smile a lot. Other than that, you'll have to ask them.Music: Arcade Fire, Sia, Massive Attack, Radiohead, Rachael Yamagata, Air, Adele, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Blonde Redhead, Death Cab for Cutie, Goldfrapp, DJ Shadow, Junkie XL, Beastie Boys, Pogo, Ulrich Schnauss, The Flaming Lips, Frédé I pretty much like everything except country and heavy metal. 1, Star Wars (older episodes only - (Mostly everything else I read is online. I can't help it, I'm of the digital age and have a short attention span, so news sites and blogs are what I'm about at the moment. Oh, and please PLEASE don't *** you liked Atlas Shrugged. Please. Just. Don't. Do. It. Okay?Food: Sushi, a great steak, Thai food... and I'm good with pretty much everything else except Indian food and super spicy foods.The six things I could never do without:-laughter-my supportive and loving family-;-my laptop/phone/technology in general-great sex-- not having a car makes getting around difficult. But after THAT then I like to go out. Nothing crazy, but drinks with friends or a dinner out is always fun. I am also not averse to a night at home with a good movie and/or good company. I'm easy when it comes to these things.I’m looking for:Ages ***Near me (I'm serious.)Who are singleFor long-term datingYou should message me if:-You found humor in this profile.-You think you might like to know more about me.-You are going to space and need a cool nerd-girl to accompany you.A few other things:-I've come to the realization that I am an extremely affectionate person, and need someone equally as affectionate for a mate. It works out best for both parties, trust me.-I prefer passionate/aggressive men that know when to be tender. I said "aggressive men", not "***holes". Know the difference.-Chivalry is a huge turn on. Huge. Many a points are scored when my date is chivalrous.- I'm tall and I'm curvy and I love how I look, and if you don't feel the same about me, then good luck finding someone willing to put up with your superficiality. I'm a healthy human being and am not interested in being judged by the likes of you or anyone else for that matter.-Also, please don't message me if you are extremely religious or a Republican because I can tell you right now that it will not work out between us. Trust me, I've tried.***Oh yes, and one other thing... I'm starting to come to the unfortunate conclusion that the majority of men on here are either complete trolls or totally full of shit. I hate to burst your bubble, boys, but I'm not interested in a one night stand, and I'm not looking for some ***hole that thinks it's fun to try (operative word being "try") to take advantage of a nice girl. I realize I live in La La Land, but I have no interest in playing these ridiculous mind games boys seem to love playing. I am a real person and would appreciate being treated with respect. If that doesn't sound like your cup of tea, then feel free to move on to the next one, mmkay? Ideally drinks out or a somewhat quiet dinner somewhere quaint. I don't think that going to a movie or a concert on a first date is ideal. I'd like to get to know you, and don't think I can in such a loud setting. Also, I don't think that getting coffee is a good first date, either. I've been on a few of those and walked away feeling like I had been on an interview, not on a first date.

*Update - I've noticed something strange lately - It seems that texting removes THE filter. You shouldn't put in text what you wouldn't say to someones face. Maybe I'll do a little experiment and disable texting on my phone..humm...(I'm not very good at checking them anyway)About me?• I like to travel- I love experiencing different food and cultures. Although I have done some traveling, I’…the list goes on. So many places to see!• Food – Mexican, Persian, Sushi, Indian, ice cream..ummm..there is not much I don’t like. Going out to restaurants is great, but so is staying in and cooking together or ordering take-out.• Shopping-YES! enough said. ha• I try to keep it healthy with food and work out at least 3 times a week. But the occasional indulgences are a must!• Spending time with friends and loved ones is therapeutic• Party of ***or party of ***like them both. Not much into dive bars• Music – I like a fairly wide range (yes, even country). Metallica, Ramones, Kid Rock, Andrea Bocelli, Mary J.…is just scratching the surface (just no sticky sweet “oldies”)• Although I love getting flowers (what woman doesn't), I’m probably the only woman who does not like the smell of them. Is that weird?• Oh, and he must have white straight teeth and a nice smile :) *I feel texting is a necessary evil but I'm not very good at checking my phone for them :( ***I'm 39 yrs old- can't change my profile* I would like to actually meet someone. I'm not really interested in endless ***, week's worth of texts or sending a bunch of pictures to strangers. There is really no point without chemistry, and there is only one way to see if there is chemistry.*About my photos - I'll answer some common questions. Yes, it is really me. They were taken in ***and I am told I look like my picture.Best of luck to everyone! :)*Update - A common question I get is "so how have your dates from here been?". This is so odd to me. Why should the initial couple of *** couple, not 3 weeks worth) be any different than your first conversation with someone you just met at *** (bar/church/festival/concert/grocery store/wherever)? If you wanted to approach a girl at a store, would you say "Hi, I'm Johnny, how have your recent dates been?" .

I love life, and I love having adventures to experience all that life has to offer. I don't hold back much, in that regard. I am spontaneous but I still love the comfort of some regular tradition... pretty much anything, with good balance, goes well for me. I have a bucket list and I try to complete one thing from the list each month... it's a long list. I am just looking for someone to share that experience with; to have occasional adventures, whether it's local or around the world.
