First, I would like to apologize in advance to any of you fine gentlemen that may have been exposed to my first attempt at posting on meetville. In my defense, there were a number of rather coercive friends involved and quite possibly more than one or two bottles of wine. In the morning, with a slightly more sober head, I also discovered, much to my horror, that I had included some rather dreadful "selfies". I have no words. I keep asking myself what kind of weirdo hopes to find a date or even a friend on an internet webstie, but here I am again. I have decided to take the advice of my well meaning friends and give it a go. So from one weirdo to another, here it is. And I am actually going to write something intelligent -- because I can. To my friends, I have taken the plunge and "put myself out there again". This is on your shoulders. Even those that love me, will agree that I am difficult to describe. I am passionate about a lot things. My children. I have four of them, almost grown, and they are fantastic. I believe one of them may have had a hand in the first meetville disaster. I am not sure if I should ground her or thank her. Travel. I have been blessed with a cool job and an adventurous spirit that has enabled me to see the world - the good, the bad and the ugly. I love it all. Food. I am a self professed food snob which is not to say I only appreciate expensive food. Don't get me wrong, I love a great evening out at a fine restaurant, but I have also had my fair share of killer street food. I love to cook and my idea of a perfect evening is a kitchen full of hungry friends. Well, hungry friends that bring great wine - that is perfect. Sweat. Yeh, you heard me. I like to work out, play hard and get wet. Adventure. I am always willing to try new things and though I am famous for getting into trouble - falling off things (I am a bit of a spazz), getting into mischief or just finding myself in rather curious situations, I have not regrets. I may need constant supervision and protection, but I have no regrets. I appreciate great movies, though they are few and far between (the great ones) and I am always looking to read something new. I'm not a big fan of TV and find that I can usually find something much more productive to do with my time. I like most music, though I have to confess to a secret crush on Country. I may or may not have a very cool t- Design. I love great fashion and great design and I appreciate it even more when you don't spend a lot of money to achieve it. Words. I value great writing and I love to write. I am frustrated by pretence, intolerance and judgement. I am also not a big fan of diet soda, margarine, fast food, Walmart and bad shoes. Sadly, I am guilty of using and abusing them all, but I strive for better. I am just a simple human.A great guy? Someone who is smart, globally aware, travelled, open minded, and passionate. Someone who can laugh at themselves and, more importantly, laugh at me. You will definitely need to be able to do that. Someone who can make me laugh. Someone who will take risks, but also put time and effort in when it's needed. Someone who is fearless - or strives to be. I realize that's a tall order. Someone who would crash in a youth hostel and enjoy a bed with ***count sheets. Someone who loves food, but appreciates that life is about moderation - there may be a tread mill or bike ride at the end of your day. Someone who is honest - with themselves and those they love. Someone who knows who they are and likes themselves and someone who is always willing to learn something new. Someone who is headed in a positive direction: forward.And if that great guy becomes a great partner, I will fill in the blanks later. They aren't very complicated, but they are important. ;-) Or whatever!

MY STORYCanadian born but US-schooled.My close ones describe me as East Coast zip and sassiness with a West Coast groove.I love music, musicals, theatre, movies, books (oh boy do I love books!), learning languages, dancing, my beloved nephews and family, close, dear friends.I speak Hungarian and French and a bit of Russian and would love to learn Italian. My current passion is learning to play the ukulele.WHAT I'M LOOKING FORKindness is right up there. A being who is warm and smart and funny. Make me laugh and we're (almost) halfway there. Someone who eventually wants a committed relationship, who knows how to connect, who's a snuggler and a cuddler and is solid but not rigid in their worldviews. Definitely someone who believes in living and loving fully and passionately, someone who also loves to read and learn, who is open and can giggle or have a serious discussion, who is informed and engaged by life and has a high level of integrity but isn't uptight. Writing back and forth and chatting before the first date so there's a jumping off point and already a good connection. Great conversation that's warm and feels effortless and a feeling that the connection runs along many lines.I'd be open to walking and talking, tea for two (and for the Tillerman), talking about life, the universe and everything.

I generally dislike talking about myself, but what’s a profile without that right?I have two children, a 20 year old daughter and a 17 year old son. We get along well and have fun together, but they do have lives of their own. Time for me to do the same. As for music, I like all kinds, but not a real fan of country. My kids keep me in the loop on the latest stuff (but my heart still lies with 80's rock). I enjoy going to concerts. There is nothing like hearing a favorite song performed live. I love my job and what I do is very important to me, but I do know how to prioritize. I am a self sufficient person but not a type A personality. I am fun loving, have a good sense of humor and enjoy people who are quick witted. I am not a huge sports fan. It is probably because I do not fully understand all the "rules of the games" and never had anyone to really explain them to me. I am willing to learn though!I enjoy working out and try to get some form of physical activity in regularly. I stay pretty busy during the day so in the evening I enjoy relaxing in front of the television or reading a good book (because why would you read a bad book right?). I am not a couch potato but like my down time. I am pretty open minded about most things and I do enjoy exploring new places and revisiting old favorites, whether they are close to home or far away. So, I suppose what I am trying to say is that I am happy to be adventurous but just as happy to stay close to home.I am not sure what else to say. If you want to know more, just send me a message and I will be happy to reply.I prefer to only date within my race. I think that would depend on mutual interests and a joint decision, right?
