Date men and women from United States / California / Arroyo Grande, 31 year old

Date a man from California, United States. Don't Panic. I said in my earlier profile revision that this was a work in progress and sure enough some things have changed. Not me but more in how I am trying to present myself accurately.
I'm a nerd and probably am so set in my ways that this won't change. So if you ever visit & look through my video collection don't get freaked out when you come across my old anime collection or that my bookshelves are full but I swear that I will fill my ereader before I need to buy more shelving. Browsing craigslist has become a fun pasttime, there is quite a bit of junk but every now and then you will find something good.
It's hard to be honest and open on these things but right now the bottle of wine is talking more than I would. I say weird things that make perfect sense to me but confuse others so I normally just stay quiet and keep these to myself. I work on my cooking skills fairly regularly and will attempt a new recipie every month or so. The cooking is one part because I'm going to eat for the rest of my life so I might as well eat something good, one part frugality and one part challenging myself to learn it.
more to come! After all there are 2800 characters left to type.

Meet men and women from California, United States. Here is a liitle about me: I barbecue as often as I can and I have a mean bbq chicken recipe to prove it. I eat absolutely everything. If I had to take one vegetable with me to a deserted island it would be a yam. I spend my down time getting together with friends, taking pictures, or running the dog (yes he can run at least 3 miles, as tiny as he is). I also surf occasionally and I grew up by the beach.

Date people from California, United States. An ideal day involves cooking, a glass of wine, practicing music, a book/movie, and something outdoors. I enjoy anything outdoors, as long as it's far from any anything motorized. I like both cats and dogs, but it's the outgoing and loyal personality of a dog that captures me. Besides, who can run with their cat?
