I would think that a lot of people would find this part of the profile process very difficult. Writing about oneself, honestly and objectively can be a daunting process. However, as I am a bit narcissistic, I am not one of those people. Here goes (be prepared, I tend to talk in bullet points): I am a 48-year-old, professional woman of Italian decent. I have a college education (B.A. in Communications and English). I am a voracious writer and rarely go anywhere without a journal and a book. I am a Certified Meeting and Event Planner/Marketing Director and contract out to mainly Fortune ***companies. I am as comfortable in a business suit as I am in my overalls. I made a commitment at the beginning of this year to “Create something cool every day” (ie; gardening, creating garden art, writing,creating new recipes) and have been 98% successful with that goal. I'm not a big fan of nightclubs but love live music. I would rather melt into your arms and dance than bump into others. I like the occasional outdoor activity but don't fish or hunt, but I don't care if you do. I would rather sit by a fire, read or write, or snuggle up next to you and just be. If I say I love you, I will mean it. If I say I'm sorry, I will also mean it. I expect the same. As I said in my headline, I think words are sexy. I'm just as likely to send you love letters filled with warmth and passion as I am a suggestive *** innuendo. I do a lot of different types of things around the cities. I would hope that you do too. As my mom always said, "You don't have to like it, you just have to try it." I am independent and self-sufficient (I can do basic car maintenance and minor plumbing repairs) but would welcome your help. I'm looking for a gentleman (I've kind of forgot what you fellas look like)who isn't afraid of my strengths and can off-set my weaknesses. I will do the same for you. I can take care of myself but am better as a team. You also have to not be afraid to tell me when I'm being nuts (because I can be). With regards to what I’m looking for, I think it might be easier to indicate what I’m not looking for but I think that would put an negative slant on this little biography and I try to always be a positive person. I’m looking for someone I can talk to. Someone with whom I can be a partner and a friend, as well as a lover. And, as much as I am looking for someone who is able to listen to and respect me, it is equally as important to me that he would offer honest advice and encouragement. We don’t have to agree on everything, but we DO have to respect each other’s opinions. I’m open to all physical types. It is more important to me that you are comfortable in your own skin. That being said, I am not a big fan of facial hair (although it is not a deal breaker). Education or profession aren’t as important to me as someone who is always searching for knowledge. Whether that is learning the history of the widget, how to re-wire a lamp or how to make great curry (all of which I know). I need someone who equally comfortable at a business dinner with me or at a coffee shop in Uptown. I love deeply and passionately. I know I might get hurt, but it is the only way in which to live completely. I need someone who isn't afraid of public or private displays of affection. Okay, now....sports. First and foremost, I LOVE football. Baseball I like to see live, hockey I like to see live and everything else I mostly tolerate (and am happy to do so - I can easily read or write while you are watching any one of the aforementioned events on television). I like golf and have played on many occasions. However, I am not good at it (I lift my head too soon) and will take lessons when I have the time. You should too. There are SO many delightful restaurants, shops, parks tucked away all over the cities. I love hardware stores. I can't explain why. Perhaps its because I love to build things. I have a storage unit full of stuff acquired from Goodwill, salvage shops, junkyards or the side of the road. Lest you think I am a hoarder, please note that it is well organized and that each item is in the process of becoming something else. To that point, I also love power tools and own my own.I am smart, funny and confident (and clearly modest) but like everyone else, have moments of doubt and insecurity. These are the times that will define our relationship. Sometimes I will need your help and advice and other times you won't be able to do anything but hold my hand. You need to be okay with both scenarios. I fight passionately (but fairly) and make up the same way. You won't need to guess with me. I will tell you what I mean, what I want and what I need. You will need to do the same and be comfortable with doing so.Okay, I guess that's it for now. Its your move.Cheers!P.S. One last thing...bobble-heads crack me up! Our first date will be casual and public. Perhaps a drink in a quiet bar or a coffee in raucous cafe. Either way, before we get to that, we will get to know each other on line. Work out the bumps (as it were)and make sure we have enough in common to take that next step. As I've said...words are sexy.

Lets see if less really is more.; At the very least it will give us more to talk about should we choose to take that path. Anyways,I love to try new things, sing songs out loud and laugh til I cry or pee! Is that to awful to put on here? I usually have fun wherever I go: At least that is usually my end goal. I'm a Groupon and Living Social junkie and I'm often trying new things just because they pop up. Wanna join me? I've had so many experiences that have shaped me in these last 48 years, but there is just so much more out there for me.I'm a hardworking teacher and I've earned the respect of many. ( A little caveat to the information above- I do not have a Masters Degree, but the option for my extended learning was not offered. I have a Masters Equivalency Plus ***along with my National Board Certification.) I love what I do, but I need some healthy distraction(s). I'd like to meet someone who works hard at something they love and has some time to invest in hanging out and having fun.If you are going to take a moment to drop me the "would like to meet you" message, I'd really like it if you'd drop a quick text as well. I can't wait to hear from you. Good luck to everyone. Or how about a Segway tour of downtown? I prefer something active, but won't turn down another option that allows us to talk and get to know one another.
