I enjoy bike riding (Greenway, Silver Comet), kayaking, softball, paintball, camping, hiking, and rock climbing (indoor, I'm still new at it). Throw in some live sporting events, spending weekends out of town, and being open to try new things - you've got my interests in a nutshell.
I believe in holding open doors and respecting ones elders.
Girls in glasses are insanely cute - even if there is no inner nerd the glasses can let me pretend
I have tons of random sci-fi knowledge, useless "name that band" skills, and like going out for trivia nights to see if I can win free Guinness. I also enjoy random things like 'board game night' with friends or 'it's midnight lets go find a Krispy Kreme.. in North Carolina".
I run a website, want to run a marathon, and run away from bad food.
My goal, after leaving the world of I.T. Security, is to open a bed and breakfast in the mountains and run a cafe that's attached. Cooking, baking, and being an Iron Chef are secret hobbies of mine.
My book collection is random, stretching from "A History of Japan" to "The Vampire Lestat" and just about everything else in between.
I also have a giant geek streak - I like going to Renaissance Festivals, DragonCON, game and hobby shops just as much as I like heading up a mountain, dropping a kayak in the river, or putting paint on canvas. I believe you must be well rounded or life becomes very dull very quickly.
I'm a big travel fan, love seeing other countries.
As much as all of this may sound like some highly active high stress lifestyle, really, I'm fairly down to earth and more go with the flow than anything. The ever appealing "hang out on the couch and watch a movie" or "go to dinner and take walks in the park" are always options that I'll go along with as well.
