About Me

Ahhhh... meetville. Because sitting in a crowded bar trying to scream at each other isn't necessarily a great way to meet people. So I'm here, hoping to find someone with common interests, willing to laugh at life (themselves included!), and maybe make some new friends along the way. I'm passionate about photography (landscapes mostly) and anything having to do with the outdoors (hiking, fishing, camping, kayaking). Being able to combine the two is a bonus for me, and I spend lots of time traveling to state parks in the area (or across the country) when I can. I practice yoga and meditation, but when that doesn't do the trick, I like to go target shooting (yes, really). I've tried combining the two but it's really hard to hold a pistol while standing in tree pose. I occasionally swear like a sailor, but generally act like a lady. This might be a deal-breaker, but I'm NOT that girl that will drag you to the mall and ask you to carry my bags. I'm sorry if I just crushed anyone's dream of sitting on a bench outside Banana Republic with a soft pretzel and an empty wallet. If you take life too seriously, you'll never make it out alive. I could easily spend an hour debating theoretical physics with you, but I'm just as likely to be a smart ass in the process. Don't worry - I enjoy the quiet moments as much as the funny ones. If you've picked up on the sarcasm tendency - consider it a plus if you accept it and are willing to dish it out in return. I find life to be about balance. Given that, I also do volunteer work for a national charity, and try to find little ways of doing good things while not expecting anything in return. What I'm looking for in a guy is simple: honesty and integrity. I give them both 100%, and am hoping to find someone who values the same. The occasional shared hobby probably wouldn't hurt, and I'm a sucker for a good debate. You don't necessarily have to have the same points of view, because I appreciate the chance to see things from a new perspective. If you go through life seeing things only one way - you're going to miss out on something incredible that was right before you the entire time. What else can I tell you? I'm allergic to drama. Life is way too short to get caught up in things that don't truly matter. I'd much rather spend mine focusing on the things that do - my family, my relationship, and the happiness that comes from those. Everything from Metallica to Sinatra. Some of my favorites though are blues and soul. I like to leave some mystery to things - but I'm pretty much an open book in the context of a good conversation. If you want to know, all you have to do is ask. Bonus points for creativity. Try me. Who's up for a trip to the range? Or, you know, drinks are cool, too. :)

    When I was a kid breakfast was usually puffed wheat. Growing up in a household of six, puffed wheat was purchased in bulk. On shopping day my Mom would have to bungee-cord the bags of puffed wheat that were as big as beanbag chairs to the top of the old Volkswagon Beetle and then drive home carefully.… occasionally we could talk my Mom into buying the little sample variety packs of cereal and there was nothing better than those days when we could get up early on a Saturday morning, watch cartoons together and open up all the little boxes of cereal (you were supposed to be able to cut them open and use them as a bowl… but that never worked out well.) We’d have six types of cereal all mixed together…I'm essentially happy with the balance of life. I have family, good friends, stay healthy, practice a regular fitness routine and have assorted hobbies and enough time off for whatever adventure or project I feel like tackling. I feel fortunate to have a job that I really enjoy, and I feel generally lucky in life. I'm looking for someone interested in dating with the goal of developing a long term relationship... Staying curious, and learning more, creativity, health, fitness and living a balanced life with a balanced cheque book are important to me. I’m generally an at-home piscivore, occasional social-carnivore. Regarding drink, I can't say that I drink socially, or that I don't drink at all.-two alcoholic drinks a month.I hope to find a conversant partner who also believes that physical attraction is important, but mental stimulation, consideration, kindness, responsibility and thoughtfulness are also essential components of enduring mutual attraction. I feel it is as important to give back and volunteer in the community as it is to have time to do one’s own thing and to try new things. I prefer to figure things out and fix things rather than to throw them out.What are you doing this week? Would we ever run into each other and talk? This weekend I'll be at a farmers market, a youth theatre production, having tea with a friend to talk about her science-based art project, cooking food (fresh from the farmers market,) fitting in a workout and a swim at the beach or two, perhaps a few chores, and going to a family gathering. I'll be catching up on some reading in the evenings to wind down. Things that might make you run away: I’ll be wearing braces for about another ***months, and that makes me feel pretty amusingly-awkward at times, especially for first meetings... also: I have some pretty geeky hobbies. I’m not a minimalist. I enjoy dressing up for the occasional creative public event. I think gummy candies are a fun postmodern treat. My flaws include: indulging in puns and sarcasm, not being perfect, too many freckles, and treating my little car like it’s a wheelbarrow as I'm often getting things for the garden. For me the point of being on this dating site is to meet people who, like me, are comfortable in their own sense of character, and to try to find that elusive connection with someone... and actually meeting in person to see if there is that common ground and spark. So, if you’re genuine and intrigued, and think that you might be ‘my cup of tea’ and I might be yours, then please send me a message. First meeting: casual.Coffee, tea, or meet at a farmers' market ...

    Woman. 39 years old. Zodiac sign: Cancer.

    Looking for: man. In age: 36-46

    I work full time and try to stay very involved with my church. I am not into the bar scene anymore. I would much rather go to dinner and a movie, the zoo, a play, bowling, or a live sporting event. Not much of a drinker and I do enjoy a nice quiet evening at home regularly. I love football and enjoy watching it at any level. I have 2 dogs, that I love to death, so you must be ok with them. If you want to know more feel free to ask.
