Once you get to know me, you'll also find that I enjoy spending time with my cats (read: surrogate kids), Boris (gray) and Natasha (black); animals; dining out (especially ethnic cuisines); science fiction; reading ravenously, movies, and some TV; music; researching stuff I'm currently obsessing about online or in the library; browsing bookstores; coffeehouses; zoos and aquariums; street fairs; picnics; politics; science; history; stargazing; live theater and music; museums; traveling; long walks on the streets or in the woods; swimming; hiking; board games, pool, putt-putt, air hockey and Frisbee-tossing; chocolate; and comics like Get Fuzzy, The Boondocks, Mutts, and This Modern World; and the beach. Last but not least, I also adore giving pleasure even more than receiving it, which includes but is far from limited to hugs; long, passionate kisses; massages; snuggling and chatting for hours.So, who are you? You have an attention span beyond a few seconds; you know something is going on beyond the end of your nose; you have interests beyond the mundane. You're also loving, intelligent, liberal, sincere, amorous, upfront, caring, tender, strong, focused, inquisitive, with a gentle yet sparkling wit, a ready smile, and a quick, genuine laugh...and you're fairly nerdy, yourself. You love kids and animals, long chats, being ridiculously silly, exploring here, there and yonder, cuddling on winter nights and walking in the park or the woods on nice days, the beach, reading, non-mainstream films, and most of all, intimacy and tenderness.
