Default OKC paste

I'll cut and paste some of my OKC profile - it really goes on and on (and on) - I'm Hominid9 there.

I'm kind of old fashioned, conversational - love to play devil's advocate. I'm smart, a smart-ass - sarcastic, funny, dry. I do not need "fixing" anymore than you do. I get phrases and words stuck in my head more often than songs. Lately, it's been "Pliny the Elder".

Things I would like to do:
-Get lost in Home Depot or that great old refurb/door/window store in Florence
- Drink hot chocolate in the Berkshires, sitting on the tailgate of my truck and watching a meteor shower
- Spend an afternoon at a sushi bar and try everything, tell bad jokes and people watch
- Get dragged out of the house to do something I complain about but we both know I'll love doing
- Go "dive bar" hopping
- Watch the Mars lander live on TV and break out a bottle of champagne to celebrate
-Read books together with our feet touching
- Roast marshmallows on the fire pit by the river in the woods and snuggle
- Long, winding road trips featuring lots of singing, stopping at antique shops, historical markers and diners
-Listen to long stories, what others know that I don't, and Terry Gross.

I detest extremism; I value the dialectic;
I don't believe in any of this, but I'm a classic Capricorn.
I have an unusual number of plants in my house; I'm an expert aquarist, but do not have an aquarium. I can't bring myself to mow my side yard this year because a little family of deer have found it, and they use it for ... something. It's now a little meadow instead of a yard. I like their paths in the tall grass. My neighbors hate me, but the deer, birds, bees and butterflies are very happy about this. Who matters more?

I seem serious, but in fact I'm shy. And intolerant of stupidity.
I seem stoic, but I'm sentimental and empathetic, and extremely goofy. The more I like you, the more I blush and stammer.
When someone dies, the hearing center of the brain lives for another 10-15 minutes. I sing to them after everyone leaves the room, usually something from their youth, if I can't come up with anything, "The Sound of Music". I will deny this to anyone with whom I work.
