i get it. i have a dog, his name is yogi - and he's wicked awesome. i had a kick-the-can kind of childhood complete with teacher in service days off for the first day of deer hunting and trout seasons. i know how to read, have a passport with lotsa stamps and can handle a stick shift like butter. i'm particular about how i take my burgers, english muffin and with an egg on top - well - i'm particular about everything - good to have opinions, no? i dress for comfort and my uniform is some combination of tshirt and jack purcells but own a few bespoke suits for those occasions that warrant. my first concert was van halen, 1984 - floor seats, mom and dad took me and the sis.
My Ideal Person:
i'd love to say that i'm looking for a girl who let's people off of the subway and leave it at that. you're adept at wielding opinions and able to listen to outside sources. you're both disarmingly adorable and capable of whipping a beautiful sentence into shape. you're in touch with your inner dork and never ever ever afraid to use it. you're more gothamist than gawker and often armed with the new yorker. you'll help me finish wednesday's crossword. you'll tolerate, if not actually appreciate, my boundless enthusiasm for seemingly trivial things and the vocal opinions that come along with aforementioned enthusiasm. you'll let me paint your toenails even though ya know i can't stay within the lines. you'll find out about all the cool stuff i missed, and you'll take me to see it. you'll give me reasons to stay up late, wake up early, get the hell out, and stay the hell in. a girl who is Trouble, in the best sense of the word. barring that, someone to spontaneous dance party outta a funk.

My most humbling moment living in africa
The best or worst lie you've ever told: convinced my sister when we were young that a gnome lived under her bed and that if she called for mommie in the middle of the night it would come out and kill her and leave beeswax in her place. 30 years later, she's still freaked out under there.
