Apathy, well I can say your lucky, in some ways.
You see Apathy is no emotion, basically you
don't care. But that does not make you a bad
person. Some of my friends are apathetic and I
love them, but it wouldn't hurt to care a
little more. Trust me life hurts, most people
who are apathetic do it cause they were hurt.
But don't worry, life is pain, its also
pleasure. Good luck. (please vote)

So it looks like I'm well on my way to becoming a techie-geek. I enjoy my toys way too much. I'll even be able to use my PDA to post. How much fun am I going to have??

Originally this was supposed to log my trip to Germany, but since I'm not going until June, I might as well post already. I'm very new to this, so I'm not sure yet how much interesting stuff I have to say.
I might as well start with what everybody seems to be doing now:
I found this on match.com - here is my perfect man



Favorite Qualities
Your photo choices suggest a man over 40 is probably getting a little old for your tastes
You seemed interested in dating a man at least 25 or older
Very handsome men
So-called "Ecto-Mesomorphs," with narrow chins and nicely angular faces
So-called "Mesomorphs," with square chins and wide faces
Green eyes

Favorite Looks
Some may call one of your types "Pretty Boys," but all you know is that they're gorgeous. The combination of classic good looks with small noses, beautiful eyes, and full lips is hard to resist. These guys tend to be clean shaven, have clear skin, and get good hair cuts. They're taking good care of themselves so they can be "pretty" just for you! [Well, you and the 1 in 3 women (33%) that are also after them!]

Another of the "looks" that you consistently noticed has been described as "The Boy Next Door." He has an open face, with big eyes, and a big grin. He has a youthful or boyish quality that will follow him throughout his life. Typically this look is associated with light brown hair, a close shave, and blue or hazel eyes. These guys convey a warm, trusting impression, but watch out for that mischievous side! Our studies find that about 1 in 5 women (18%) are especially attracted to this youthful look.

Favorite Face Type
So-called "Mesomorph" faces obviously appealed to you. These faces can be shaped like a square or a rectangle, but are most noticeable because of their strong square jawline. The chins are clearly prominent from the front and side, and have crisp angles defining the sides of the chin. No sunken chins for you! This is by far the most masculine face type. Often, you'll also find strong, manly noses and beefy lips with this face pattern as well. About 79% of other women especially prefer men with this face type.

And since he's my prefect man, I get to name him - I think he could be a Troy.

My boy
Yesterday I posted my dream man (at least as far as match.com is concerned), so now it's time to present the real man in my house: Dorian


He is a very pretty, very loud, sometime annoying, but very sweet Siamese ex-stud. And yes, he held that 'ex' against me for a very long time. He hated me for a good month and would not let me close to him, until he finally figured out that I am it, take it or leave it...and he finally made peace with me and now is a real cuddle monster.
