What makes me tick

Well, I'm not really a "redneck" as folks here seem to think. I couldn't care less about it, really. I tend to wear casual clothes, maybe a Tommy Hifiger shirt with jeans, and tennis shoes or cowboy boots (a little bit redneck I suppose)

I feel comfortable in about any social environment, from a black-tie fundraiser to a college keg party. I have no problem speaking in public, be it one person or 100,000. I can be arrogant, but my divorse has knocked me down a few pegs. It completely blind-sided me, and I always took pride in my abilities to "read" any situation. Oh well!

I love animals, kids, gardening, extreme sports, bla, bla, bla.
I love to hunt and fish in particular. I am an artist, and manage to get pretty good money for my works . . . when I can sell them. I still have to have "a real job" to pay the bills.

Believe it or not, I actually get paid for writing on occassion, having even won an excellence in writing award from the Orlando Sentinel for a humorous editorial I wrote for them. (No, it wasn't a "contest")

I'm 5'11", 160 pounds, Somewhere in body style between slender and "toned". I work out at the gym a bit, though I'm not a "gym rat".
Brown short hair, streaked with grey.

I used to enjoy fighting, though I was NEVER a bully. I tended to look for a bully to fight, lol. I probably would still enjoy pugilism, but too many cowards out there want to really hurt people nowadays. The days of a "good fight" and then sharing a beer afterwards is over.

I'm newly single after four kids and ten years of marriage. My wife is now fucking a sexually deviant Muslim drug dealing quikie mart worker.
She's neglecting my kids, though nothing that'll get me custody back.

I'm NOT looking forward to dating again. I have no problem with trusting women, but I don't trust my ability to find a trustworthy woman. I'm not looking "for a woman to marry", but I'm not really interested in casual dating either. Quite the quandry. It's been over a tear since I've "been" with a woman, and I'm pretty much horney as hell.

I have no problem finding attractive women for a "one nighter", but I keep sabotaging it before we even smooch usually. I'd like to say it's because I'm concerned about STD's, but the truth is I can't get rid of the feeling I'd be "cheating or something. Weird, I know.

Anyway, that's pretty much where I'm at in life right now.

Later,
