How about we… Browse books at Magers & Quinn Booksellers, buy a take-out dinner at Lucia's Restaurant and head to the lake.
How about we… get crazy and watch and Irish band play at Kieran's.
How about we… let's go for drinks tonight and then catch a flick at the MSP international film fest.
About MnMetroMan
An awesome place I've visited:
Palm Springs - Miramonte Resort. It was unbelievable. Best thing: totally impromptu visit to California.
My perfect Sunday:
Music. Love. A warm autumn day. Hot sun. Blue sky. Canoe in the middle of a lake. A walk through the trees. Colored leaves swirling through the air and crunching beneath my feet. A bonfire. Friends. Grilling and good beer. Good stories. A night under the stars. Wine, cheese, and good memories.
The movie I've watched the most times:
Dumb and Dumber. It's brilliant. And the only movie I can quote from beginning to end near flawlessly. Depending on your leanings you can take this as either a warning or in invitation. :p Other Films I love: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Donnie Darko, Once, Life is Beautiful, the original Star Wars Trilogy, Shawshank Redemption, When Harry Met Sally, The Usual Suspects
My life history in 5 sentences or fewer:
Kickin' ass and lovin' life: in style, with swagger, tenacity, and witty banter to boot.
My first concert / My dream concert:
Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles. Flogging Molly. The Frames. Norah Jones. OK Go. Adele. Black Keys.The White Stripes. Cake. Ben Folds. Electric Children. Arcade Fire. LCD Soundsystem. Mumford & Sons. I think that'd make for a decent start to a dream concert.
Obscure knowledge I possess:
"Break-a-Leg" is wished to actors before a performance because (and this is the obscure part) to wish them "good luck" is decidedly bad luck. So to contravene the superstition, an actor is wished severe bodily harm instead. Basically, "It's opposite day . . . I hope you fall to the floor in agonizing pain," she said with the best of intentions.
I have a weakness for guys/girls who:
girls who are adventurous, sweet, intelligent, confident, artistic, creative, witty, and have a great laugh.
For me, a first date no-no is:
Whining. But "wine-ing" that's OK :)
What I would bring to show and tell:
my new drawings. I'm in a 10-week drawing class and i've learned great new techniques so far.
I want to be with someone who wants to be:
happy despite their circumstances, passionate in their pursuits, and good toward all people.
If I won the lottery and quit my job, I would:
Buy my parents a house. Travel the World. Take at least two classes a year for the rest of my life. Have great house parties. Probably work with the Khan Academy to further accessible, quality, and free education.
One thing my mother would want you to know about me:
He's no momma's boy, but loves his mother.
