I was both a Theatre major and a rather convincing frat boy. I want someone to teach me more about red wine and introduce me to new films on the couch. Also, I'm currently writing a novel that suggests that Virginia Woolf actually killed herself over the stress of an inadequate cell phone plan; it's entitled "The Minutes." Possible tag line for book jacket: "Before you die, you hear The Ring."

Please have the same lust for life, the arts, and the English language. Feel free to harbour as many eccentricities and contradictions as I do. Be funny, drink socially (and gratuitously) and have as few culinary aversions as possible. I'm leery of people who can't eat entire species or cuisine from whole countries or vast regions of the world, e.g. "seafood," "Mexican," "Mediterranean," etc. I mean, seriously, who raised you? I enjoy people who have a tendency to be "a bit much" and who are frequently in "rare form." After employing sarcasm or telling an off-color joke, please don't follow with "just kidding"; trust your audience. Don't fear semicolons; they're your friends! Hipsters fascinate me, but as a rule, don't be "too cool for school." Put that collar down; no one thinks you're cute. Belong to the school of thought that ketchup and butter should be refrigerated. Call me a pessimist, but if you reside in the Phillippines, I don't think things are going to work out between us.
