Here's the boring stuff. 48, married, pretty good marriage but we're roommates. 5'7", I've been working on myself and I'm active and fit (Are those abs?! I think I've got abs!!! Wait... Is that a hernia?!). I've got a few tattoos that have meaning to me and mean very little to everyone else. I have hair! (Salt and pepper, more salt than pepper.) I'm growing out my hair because I want to thrash one last time before I die.

I have a situation, you have a situation, we all have situations and we probably all want to keep things more or less status quo (what is the status of your quo?).

The not so boring stuff... I'm a proud geek. I own it, live it, love it, but I know how to read a room and keep it under wraps. (Does that mean I'm still a geek if I'm not totally socially awkward?) I like to say I'm 70% geek and 30% punk rock, although I've also been told that I'm a closet goth. (Did you know that goths are some of the happiest people around?) I'm an optimistic pessimist, a "that glass is half... Oops, I drank it." kind of guy. Easily distracted but always in the moment. I'm a bit of a paradox.

I like adventures and I mean it. There has to be a little pain and misery to have an adventure, but not too much pain and misery. What's the point of being active and fit if you don't go out and use it? More into art and less into sports. The last time I watched football was when Michael Jordan was playing for the Blackhawks.

I'd like to find someone to cause a little trouble with. Someone to give attention too (I promise not to get distracted). Someone to tell secrets to and keep secrets with. Chat with me and I will make you a mix "tape" and maybe one day I'll could even give it to you.

No AI was used in the creation of this post. 100% created by a human being. (For real, I spent way too much time writing and rewriting this thing. I probably should have used AI to save the time. That would be an interesting experiment. Who gets more responses, the human, or the AI?)
