About me:

I'm a jokester, sarcastic and always quick to make fun of life's little ironies. I love food and wine and baseball and getting lost in the city. I'm kind of a nerd, though I can't fix your computer and rarely play video games. After my last relationship ended, I went from "A few extra pounds" to "average" and am well on my way to "athletic and toned". I'm honest and straightforward, no games, no drama. I'm not commitment-phobic, but I'm not trying to be married in 2009 either.

I have a pretty good life. It's only missing one thing. I have a job I love. I have a good deal on a modest apartment in a quiet neighborhood in the best city in the world. I've got a cool new car. I'm very healthy, in good shape physically and mentally, and am having fun being young and athletic. I have a family that loves me, and good friends. The only thing missing is a best friend and lover. Someone to share the adventure and laughs with, to greet the day with in the morning and/or put it to bed at night. Maybe someone reading this will be that person.

I haven't traveled that much, though I'm certainly up for it. I've gone to mexico 4-5 times (my Spanish is pretty good), I have my own scuba gear. I'm an intermediate downhill skier. If the best friend was also a workout partner that'd be a bonus.

I'm looking for someone who loves to laugh, and likes to try new things, is outgoing and optimistic, a foodie. Someone to go wine tasting with, maybe take a spur-of-the-moment day trip. Someone comfortable in her own skin, very cute but doesn't know it. Someone who lives life to the fullest, approaches each day with energy and the mindset to keep themselves entertained and healthy. Someone who loves to laugh, and is at home in an expensive restaurant but also in PJs with take-out. Cliche, I know. Drop me an email and I'll buy you a blueberry muffin.

I play softball/football a couple times/week and umpire. I'm a food and wine lover, I eat out a lot and am always trying someplace new. Go to Giants games often. I like relaxing at home, lively conversation, watching movies: Netflix or at the theater

I work mostly 9-5, with some on call weekends and some short business trips. It's based in the food business, but I work mostly in an office building.

I'm a white guy, born and raised in Cali. I think I'm 3/8 Welsh and 3/8 Italian, with some misc mixed in.

Went to college, then culinary school.

I love trying new restaurants, and there's no shortage of them in SF. If I'm looking for a fun evening, I'll just enter some search words into Yelp. com and let it suggest an adventure to me. Someplace cool for dinner, maybe a kooky bar for a drink?

I love my job, my new car, and my apartment. Just need someone to share it with. I love turkey sandwiches, driving fast, cracking jokes, wearing shorts and sandals no matter the weather. I love being outdoors and I love being inside bundled up.

I read bubblegum detective novels to fall asleep at night. I read the newspaper every day during baseball season, but less so in the winter. I keep up on news by reading a news aggregate site called Fark. com, which isn't really about the news at all.
