Now that I've decided on where I'm going to find my truly beloved for all eternity, or most likely the next few months, I need to post a profile. This is much harder than it seems. Again, more research is in order. Where as comparing dating sites was rather easy, what to actually say in your profile ran the gambit of completely ridiculous to absolutely boring. The best advice on this topic was not from Oprah or some pick-up artist but rather from my Mom when I was ten years old. "Just be yourself"
With an inflated self ego, I filled out my profile. I was as honest as possible. I mean you can fudge a little on your profile but some things you just have to truthful about. If you're 5'2 and fat and say you're 5'11 and athletic and toned and then actually meet someone in person... yous has some esplainin to do. So, after 8 cups of coffee, half a pack of cigarettes, and two hours of man vs. wild in the background, here is my current profile:
I am the artistic, passionate type always looking for new, creative opportunities to completely embarrass myself. I am smart, witty and fun, with quite the adventurous spirit. I am nerdish however, I've memorized the floor plans of the Death Star but can't tell you the first thing about football. That's the one with the stick and the ball, right?
I am confident but not a jerk, successful in the things that matter to me, ambitious, intelligent, curious and well travelled, open minded, a deep thinker but silly at times, down to earth, and loved by cute, fuzzy bunnies and other woodland creatures, except squirrels. Never trust a squirrel.
I grew up the poorest kid in the richest neighborhoods of the hot deserts of the Southwest. I migrated to the Northwest a few years ago and fell in love with this place and enjoy many outdoor activities. Not only because of the natural, scenic beauty but because I can go outside without spontaneously combusting.
Recently I have decided to put myself out there again, take some chances and see if I can find something meaningful. It's scary and exciting at the same time but I am looking forward to having some fun, new experiences.
So, If you're a woman who is independent, smart, a bit goofy, understanding, caring, a bit of a smart ass with a streak of hidden nerd, can cuss like a sailor but dine with royalty, you've got my attention.
Damn, I'm either a complete idiot or total genius, I haven't decided yet. Sweet, I just thought of my headline... Idiot Genius.
Critiques are welcome...
