About Me
I live in Chicago and I am here for a few weeks for work. I'm just looking for someone laid back that wants to hang out while I'm here. No expectations beyond that. I have met people in every city I travel to and still talk to them through texting and Facebook. I spend enough time with the guys I work with and need some time away from that where work doesn't come up. I'm also going back to school soon for my Masters in Psychology so even if you just want to hang out and get some free advice or a new point of view, I'm good with that too.
I try to laugh as much as humanly possible. I am immature sometimes in my sense of humor and can be a real smartass, but I am very responsible. I work hard, have my own place, pay my bills, take care of my dog, love my parents and my friends, keep my apartment clean and smelling nice, etc. I make jokes about everything, everyone, and myself. I have a huge memory bank of references and create memes and other funny pictures. I don't look for deep meaning in much of anything unless it's hilarious so I'm definitely looking for someone whose sense of humor is a big part of who they are. I need to date a talker. I want someone that will feed my brain instead of sitting there waiting for me to perform or do something for them. I've overcome a lot in my life and don't need someone who is going to list all the things I need to do for them. I'm very independent and low maintenance and expect someone I date to be as well. I have met a lot of women who are good at putting up a facade in order to get me to like them, but that falls apart quickly. The same goes with women who put up really old pictures like I'm not going to notice when we meet. And the 'basically what I look like' argument is not valid in any way. I tend to only date one person at a time because if there is one thing I know about myself, it's that I lack the desire and skill to juggle multiple dating relationships. I am also brutally honest about myself. Everyone has a past and it has shaped who we are. If you have stories about exes that are entertaining or will help me get to know you, by all means share them with me. I won't hold it against you and expect the same in return.
I work out 5-6 days a week, mostly lifting. I hate cardio, but would love to meet someone who wants to play tennis, racquetball, basketball, etc as a way of getting exercise together. I also started doing some MMA classes a few days a week to mix things up. I have two full sleeve tattoos along with two others and have more work planned. I remember everything about movies and almost nothing about music. I've been on several road trips and I'm willing to do all the driving. I like quiet bars and playing darts/pool/bags every so often. I drive a 97 Honda Civic and I'm keeping it until it dies. I'm not worried about things.
Shows I watch: Big Bang Theory, Dexter, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, Modern Family, Daily Show, Colbert Report, Bill Maher, Walking Dead
Movies: I have over 1000 movies and growing my collection. I love comedies and horror the most, but also like Documentaries and action flicks.
Music: I usually stick with my longtime favorites like Pearl Jam, DMB, Foo Fighters, Audioslave...and I have a soft spot for Fun and Norah Jones
