Two arms, two legs, and a head. What more do you need to know?

I'm a pretty quiet, but friendly, guy. Feel free to say hi! I sometimes feel nervous being the first to say hello.

I always have at least one book in rotation that I'm reading. Always down to chat with fellow bookworms. Currently reading "All About Love" by bell hooks, "Win Me Something" by Kyle Lucia Wu, and I might start another book in tandem soon. Always multiple books in play.

You're not gonna get anywhere with me on a couple word answers or constant acronyms and half sentences. wyd? nm? u rp? Enough with it. Everyone on here should be at least 18; please communicate like the adults we are.

If you ask for phone as your opener, that's a real good way to get blocked.
