"BoyMeetsGirlintheWorldSeriesofLove"

Smarty-pants kitten lookin' fer her tomcat for fence-hoppin', mouse-chasin', late-night caterwauling, snoozin' on the warm hood of a '65 Mustang, and nuzzlin' in front of the fire after a nice meal of wine and Tender Vittles.

OK, I'll stop with the feline analogy. ;) More stuff about me: I'm a lover of mid-century modern design and graphic art and an indie-rock music freak. I'm a professional surrounded by Very Serious People all the time at work, therefore I have to be happy and goofy when I leave or else I'll go boom, and, you know, no one really needs to see that. I own both hiking boots and high heels, which means I can be led into the outdoors by a patient guide or lured into a tent by your deadly charms, but I wouldn't call myself outdoorsy. That said, I've been both scuba-diving and hang-gliding, so go figure. ;) I've been a downhill skier since age 4. I suck at tennis and racquetball, but I'm at a willing partner. I gotta travel several times a year, or I start getting antsy. I like artsy films and scientific documentaries. I am takeable to both brewpubs and sleek bars. I'm a foodie.

I tend to like the intellectually curious sort who's at least somewhat interested in the arts. Smart-as-hell = incredibly sexy. You've got character and a passion for something (or multiple things) in the world. You travel well. You have preferences and opinions, but you don't get totally derailed if things go awry.

Are you game? I promise to keep the claws retracted. Unless, of course, you're a rodent. ;) (Tee hee!! Sorry, couldn't resist).

Deeper

What is something that people are surprised to find out about you? but if I tell you, it'll ruin the surprise...

Where are your local haunts? Showbox, Neumo's, Chop Suey, Hazlewood, Sambar, Bastille, Oddfellows, Sonic Boom, Easy Street Records, Brouwer's, Cafe Presse, Supreme 611, Shiku, Cupcake Royale, Chartreuse, Velocity, the Elysian and its various outposts

What kind of person are you attracted to? Kind, clever gentlemen who are at least vaguely into artsy stuff and intellectually curious without being stuffy, mean, or obnoxious. Men who start going somewhat bonkers if they don't leave the country every few years or so. Someone whose definition of a relationship involves mutual respect/partnership between two people so we can spoil each other rotten.

What songs would be on the soundtrack of your life? Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated," Verve "This Time," Elastica "Connection," Makeup "Gospel 2000," Operation Ivy "Sound System," Pixies "Distance Equals Rate Times Time," Radiohead "My Iron Lung."

What's something you want to do but haven't? Kitesurf. Zipline in the Costa Rican rainforest.

My radio dial is usually tuned to: KEXP.

If I could change one thing about Seattle, it would be: functional mass transit.

One movie everyone should see is: March of the Penguins. Gorgeous cinematography. And the penguins are really freakin' cute.

If I could only eat one type of food for the rest of my life, it would be: Thai or my grandmother's cooking. I swear, the woman sprinkled crack on her stuffed cabbage.

Fill It

I consider myself an open-minded person, but my deal breakers are lyin' to yer lady and cheatin' on her

Something I learned from the last person I dated is the mark of a gentleman is how he behaves at the end of the relationship, not just the beginning.

Design your ideal mate: the brain of Ghandi and the body of Thurston Moore

I want to make a t-shirt that says Stockholm.

My picture(s) reveal that I am afraid I look like a chipmunk when I smile.

Something I said I'd never do but did anyway was get cable TV

My idea of a great date is randomly flying to Germany for the weekend to see our favorite band play.

The first section I turn to in the Stranger is music listings

My guiltiest pleasure is Cinnabon. Ooof.

When stuck in gridlock I boogie down, much to the amusement of the car behind me.

The last show I saw was Mike Watt

A fault my friends tease me about is cussing in futility at inanimate objects, like toasters and fax machines.

The quickest way to my heart is chocolate chip cookies The quickest way to my bed is chocolate chip cookies. And in the morning, I like my eggs cooked a la Dish's Slacker Especial.

Great sex calls for lots of fluid mechanics.

It's Sunday morning at 10 a.m. If I'm not still sleeping, I'm really pissed that I'm awake.

When I die, I believe I will go up, up, and away!

Something people keep buying me for gifts and I never use is High end, over processed perfume.

I wouldn't be who I am if my dad had been afraid of taller women.

For delicious results, add one part frenzy and mix it with one part restraint

When I was a kid, I actually owned a leopard print corduroy pantsuit

I wouldn't sell my family for a billion dollars.
