Let me guess ... You're smart. This ain't your fist rodeo. And you're not about to fall for the preposterous claims made by so many of the profiles on this site. So here's a refreshing perspective of the TRUTH. I pay all my bills. I wear socks that match. I'm an honest man with a successful career, and strong values. So while I could regale you with stories of my trips to Paris or how I resemble Ryan Gosling ... I know that excellent communication is a foundation for every relationship. So if we're on the same wavelength, read on ... What am I doing with my life? Monday through Friday I work in school administration for a local school district. My average work week consists of monitoring the operations of an elementary school, and its 65 staff members, 690 students and a couple thousand parents and community members. I often serve as a manager of operations, a counselor, a friend, a parent, a disciplinarian, a teacher, a custodian, a noon-aide, a crossing guard, and so much more. So I could tell you more, but I'm sure you'd much rather see the 367~slide PowerPoint I've prepared with all the juicy details ... :·-) Outside of work I keep plenty busy, whether I'm going to the gym, cooking new recipes, walking my Fluffy, or just chilling with some Netflix. I love to travel to explore unfamiliar places, embrace new cultures, taste exotic local foods, in our own backyards, or internationally. And although I don't know any other language than English, I'm not afraid to try my tongue at the local language, even if I tell them their hair is on fire, instead of which way do I go.

My Ideal Person I don't really have an idea about the ideal partner's appearance other than it would be really cool if she were taller than me, or at least taller in high heels. She'd definitely be much smarter than I am, super well-read and way into the same kind of music I am. I'd love it if she were willing to create different crafts, like finishing that embroidery I can't seem to get to. My ideal partner I was actually WITH would be way into doing things like that, or not, whatever. And she would love going for walks and travel, but also be really conversant in movies. And we'd be able to bare our innermost selves to each other fearlessly and without judgment. We'd really get along and share values and the same general outlook and optimism about life. Because she'd have to be a very positive person. I've really had it up to here with negativity and naysayers.
