On the sport side --
Originally trained in Army Combatives Level III ; now training at two different schools, one that’s eclectic non-sport/street-fighting (no rules) started by a bunch of ex-mil and cops, and another for BJJ. Have a black belt in the former. Also trying to learn freestyle/collegiate wrestling. I’m always looking for new training partners; my class schedule is kind of heavy, but more practice is always good, and this is pretty much my main hobby.
I have no set agenda: Matches can be intensely competitive, just a good friendly workout, or a sort of “you show me your tricks, and I’ll show you mine” thing. I’m very competitive by nature and can be hell-bent on winning, but my ego can handle losing to a superior fighter, and I like to think I do so gracefully. I’ve got 10’x10’ mats and can host. Gear negotiable; will do barenux occasionally, but let’s try to stay out of the ER, shall we?

On the personal side –

I’m a voracious reader (fiction and non-fiction), history buff, rabid hockey fan, sci-fi and horror junkie, uber-goofball, unabashed and unapologetic horndog.

Like all human beings, I’m a mixed bag. The vast majority of the time, I’m basically a happy person, and I like myself. I’m told my sense of humor is one of my best traits (although it tends to be relentless and a bit on the dark side). On the other paw, I get moody every once in a while and when I do get mad it’s like a blast furnace.

I’m something of a misanthropist; I believe each and every human being is capable of both great good and appalling atrocity, but that more often than not will predictably choose the latter over the former. As they say, I hope for the best but tend to prepare for the worst.

I don’t need a lot of people in my life. I like having a few good friends and I’m close to my family, and I consider those close friends to be part of my family. I’m fiercely loyal; screw with anyone I care about and I’ll dismember you slowly.
I’m a textbook introvert (they used to call us “homebody” types); large groups of people stress and drain me emotionally and physically. If you’re looking for someone who wants to go out, get wasted and stay up all night at clubs or bars, pass me by.
If you’re into Myers-Briggs, I’m an INTJ.
