Relationships are very important to me. I'm looking for someone with a penchant for showing affection and spending lots of time together.

Right now, I'm mainly prospering in a career as software engineer for a large defense contractor. Now just trying to find that final piece of the puzzle to make my life complete...

I've lived in Maryland all my life. I'm mostly Italian/Austrian, liberal and not very religious, though as long as you're not a crazy fundie I will get along with you.

I'm not looking for a short term thing or simply sex. So those not interested in something potentially serious need not apply.

Interests... Other than all things computer-related, I love to read, watch movies, listen to music and play games (boardgames, cards, videogames) and I have a growing appreciation of art in all its forms. I'm also into photography, wine tasting... Basically, I'm not picky at all for the most part when it comes to forms of entertainment and I can pretty much have fun doing just about anything.

Books - My favorite genre is fantasy so my favorites include Harry Potter, The Wheel of Time, Song of Ice and Fire, Lord of the Rings, House of Leaves, Hitchhiker's Guide and Discworld among many others, but I also enjoy most other genres, Sci-Fi, Horror, Mystery, etc. On the non-fiction side of things I am interested in Psychology and Philosophy texts and boring computer programming manuals.

Movies/TV - Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, The Matrix, Sin City, anything by Kevin Smith, Sopranos, Frasier, Friends, Heroes, Studio 60, Family Guy, etc.

Oh, and because it deserves its own line - LOST - Only the best d*mn show on television.

Music - Classical, Alternative, Rock are high up there but I'll listen to anything.

All in all, I'm full of surprises and I am made up of much more than what is written here. If you don't believe me, message me and find out for yourself.
