About Me

"Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are gonna get."How absolutely true! No matter what we do with our lives, we are still going to have high highs and low lows. With any luck, we ride out the storm and develop into someone our parents would be proud of. I live by the proverb "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." I think the world would be a better/more peaceful place if we all subscribed to that way of thinking, don't you?So who am I? I am a passionate, wise, altruistic, athletic, sensible yet spontaneous, self-sufficient and strong (both mentally AND physically!) woman who is just hitting the Prime of her life. I finally know what I want in life. It took me 50 years to discover it, but, while I may be slow, I am finally there. I am a self-made woman. Everything I own, I earned myself through hard work, blood, sweat and tears, and keeping my eyes on the prize. I now know that I WANT a man in my life, but I do not NEED a man. One is healthy and the other is not.Love has been like an elusive butterfly for me that I have been chasing for too long with a net that apparently has a hole in it! While I never thought of myself as a quitter, I must admit that I am getting quite a headache from banging my head against that wall! No more! Girls just wanna have fun, right? Besides, I finally realized that divorced men do not want a committed relationship, having already been down that road. I figure, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!My favorite time of year is summer. You will find me outside most of the time, either working in my yard or checking out festival-goers. I am serious about taking care of myself and staying in shape. I worked damn hard to get this body and am not about to quit working on it now! I like a man who feels the same way and shares my philosophy on healthy living. Oh, don't get me wrong, I like to go out and have a couple drinks, wear a short skirt and heels, and know that I look good in them. Not intimidated yet? I also like serious kissing and cuddling, so pucker up, Boys!"There's no point in living if you can't feel alive." Prefer to meet for the first time somewhere where we can actually hear each other without using our "outside voices". I prefer the table in the corner where we can gaze into each other's eyes without squinting into bright lights. A couple drinks and a warm smile...who knows?

    I am interested in a progressive, intelligent, caring, evolved man who cares about the world and its problems, who is self aware, not a workaholic or any other kind of -olic or a religious fanatic, but spiritual in nature. My ideal man would be romantic and think of me when we were not together--I hope I would have given him reason to do so. I am tactile and love touching and showing affection but am not quick to do so. I guess I am reserved until I get to know you. Sometimes that only takes 15 minutes . . . it depends on whether we click or not. If you make me laugh, I might be wiping food off your face.I love to cook and do so for friends and family when time allows.Things I would like to do with my significant other are to learn line dancing or contra dancing, tai-chi, yoga, and pottery. For that, you get to choose four of your own that do not require me to jump from high places or ride on motorcycles or boats or scuba dive. I don't like heights, I get motion sick, and I am claustrophobic, but other than that, I am totally normal!I love to laugh at my own foibles. I have an irreverent sense of humor. I make others laugh because I am a klutz and am known to knock things over, fall, or to walk around with TP stuck to my shoe. I am good-natured and so won't get mad if you laugh when I do fall. Just help me up, please?I seek a guy who doesn't value possessions over people. I have been trying to shed more of them as I get older so that I can leave this world the way I came into it: naked, broke, and preferably still owing my student loans!I am more attracted to intelligence and kindness. I like geeky intellectuals but who are passionate underneath--something only I get to see :)I seek a man who is non-judgmental, embraces diversity, is romantic, is a great kisser; who practices random acts of kindness, who will bring me wildflowers, and who will challenge me to be better--emotionally, physically, and intellectually.I root for the underdog. My son is a manager and has me hooked up. I can then meet in the lunch room with all of the other folks who got their MFAs and we can eat our PBJs and talk about deconstructionist theory or post modern hermeneutics. Any live small venue concert is great, preferably folk!
