About Me

I'm just me. :) I am a full-time student and newly single mom to an amazingly bright 9-year old who is my world. I have been out of the dating loop for a long while and am kind of new to this, so I'm a little unsure about what to say here. But, I'm a quick learner. ;)After working in the service industry for ***years (because that is just what I've always done and what I know), I am now back in college and working towards getting a teaching degree with the hopes of eventually teaching middle school or high school History. I am a bit of a nerd at heart (okay... maybe a lot a bit... lol)... I am always reading or looking up new things trying to expand my base of useless knowledge. :)I love all kinds of music, but tend to steer clear of newer country or hardcore rap. I love discovering new music and going to concerts. I love movies of all kinds. I love reading (when I have time or can stay awake... LOL), especially historical fiction. See? Kind of geeky, but I like to think it's just part of my charm. ;)I cannot STAND games or players... be straightforward. I'm a big girl, I can take it. ;)I am opinionated, but open minded and tolerant. I am headstrong, but also capable of listening to reason. I am quirky and accepting of others quirks. Yes... I have very short hair, and no, I won't consider growing it out... it suits me. ;) I am straight-forward and honest, and expect the same from others.I am an open book... ask me anything and I'll give you an honest answer. I prefer a good beer over wine. I prefer watching a good movie over Nascar. I can have a conversation with anyone (I've never met a stranger... ), but can get a little shy when the conversation is focused on me (I blush easily). I know I may not be everybody's cup of tea, but that's fine by me... I don't even like tea. ;)What am looking for? Kindness, a killer sense of humor, confidence, HONESTY, good conversation, wit, intelligence, respectfulness, shared interests, individuality, an infectious laugh, a great smile, wicked chemistry and *butterflies*. :) Also, the choices given for what my "intent" may be are way too generic... I am looking to get to know someone and see where it goes. I'm not anti-relationship; I just don't want to jump into anything, but rather ease into it. In other words, no ***, just add me and I'm not just cruising this site for hook-up's. There's a middle ground, right? :)**Just as an aside to see who actually reads this, I don't really understand the whole "Meet Me" feature on here...;So and So wants to meet you"... it just seems less impersonal. :)Also, as I said, I am not looking for just a hook-up or a fling. So, all of you that are (ESPECIALLY you married creepers looking for a mistress), please just save the wear and tear on your keyboard and keep looking. I'd be game for just about anything that involved good conversation and laughing until my cheeks hurt.

    I love love love the art of living, and I think I do it well...I'm a super duper silly goose, super duper all the time. I love to laugh, love to cry, love to just be. My son is my world, my rock, and my best friend. I taught him how to ride(snowboard) last winter, we ride our bikes daily, and we skate on any given day (Those who dont LOVE kids, need not apply) :) My son comes first. Period. I'm both a tom-boy as well as a girly-girl. I play all sports and will beat you at each of 'em. :P My first love was soccer, my forever will be snowboarding...I've lived all over this country, but will remain in So Cal for years to come...I hate negative people, I hate drama, and I hate liars. I believe in being REAL, true to who you are, and true to those around you. I say please and thank-you at drive thru's, I give hi fives to strangers, I will return a lost wallet, and I will call you out if I catch you being shady. I have no fear, no ";, and no regrets. I wear my heart on my sleeve, always have, always will. I'm ***percent content (ha! that rhymed) being single right now, but at the same time, If I met someone awesome who I had legitimate feelings for, nothing could hold me back..Oh, and...What I'm NOT attracted to: large muscles, guys who use too much hair product, the "Affliction" type, guys who take pictures of themselves flexing their abs in the mirror, the "lifted truck" type, and insecurity.And what I AM attracted to: sarcasm, a big sense of humor, wit, chivalry (a gentleman who opens the door for a lady rules), a 5 o'clock shadow/a mustache/a beard, a man who knows the difference between there, their and they're, and someone who can balance being responsible along with knowing how to have good time fun :) belly laughin shenanigans of any sort :) I'm a fly by the seat of my pants kind of gal, I'm up for anything!

    Louis for work. I tend to be fairly outgoing and am open to new things. I work in the ER and am glad to be done with law school. I keep saying this will be the last degree, but I said that after the last one too... In my defense, I've been doing the nursing thing for well over a decade and am attempting to use the JD within the healthcare setting. I enjoy showing off my truly horrifying golfing skills and seem to have developed a fascination of doing touristy things and visiting historical sites. I figure just working one full-time job will give me a ton (comparatively speaking) of free time and so am hoping to get back into hiking and climbing. If you know of good places to go or even a nice day hike, I'm always open to new ideas.
