How would you describe yourself?
That's a broad sorta' question, huh? How would I describe myself...
I... Huh. Pragmatic, sometimes gleefully cynical which (I believe) is one of the pillars of honest optimism, devoted to family (I've 2 kids), happy to be free of a bad thing (divorced) but still optimistic about life's good things.
I love learning and experiencing newness, however it comes. Travel's fun, though I've done nowhere near as much as I'd like. Creative would be another word. I keep myself sane with good literature and poetry, carpentry / woodworking, cooking, photography, and had to admit early in my IT career that even computing is a creative outlet / substitute for my first love, writing. Sigh... Maybe she and I'll make up one day.
Right now another good word is "sleepy". It's midnight here, and I'm going to wrap this up. Tavis Smiley's got what looks like an interesting author on (T. C. Boyle), might be a good time to steal some blanket back from the dog and kick back. Or maybe let him have the TV and slip out for a pint.
Yadda, yadda yadda.
I'm happy to blather on more if you'd like, as long as I get to learn about you in the process. Hit me up!

So you'd think a photographer would have decent photos of himself somewhere, right? Not this one. The webcam on this machine's awful too. I'll work something out.
I am looking for
You, if you answered "yes" to the headline. Seriously, I'm a simple man that likes to live. Love to nurture and be nurtured, but can't really afford to raise someone else's grown child and wouldn't ask anyone else to carry me that way.
A buddy to dive headfirst into life with, is what I'm after. Someone who'll stand back to back with me when it's time to let the world have it, someone who'll turn to me, someone I can turn to when the world's too much.
Love of God and self, honesty and loyalty are key. Foundational, in fact.
I know you're out there, Mamma. Daddy's on the way.
