I have been told I have a fun personality and I am someone who likes to enjoy life! I try not to let the little things bother me and keep a positive outlook going. I am looking for my match, someone who loves adventure, loves to laugh and be spontaneous. Someone who will make me laugh in return and be silly with, but has chemistry as well. I live in Chicago and enjoy many things the city has to offer - beaches, bike riding, restaurants, etc. Thanks for checking me out and good luck with the fishing!Meet in a casual environment and go from there.

As of June 20th I am retired from teaching full time. I am very liberal, not affiliated with a party but more to the best choice. I do not attend church, I put my time in daily at an Episcopal girls school so logged in enough chapel time to kill a horse and now believe that each has their own beliefs. On June 20th I turned 65, retired, and became a gramma all in one week. Now it's time for me to get out and play and figure out the next phase of my life adventure. I am passionate about fly fishing and the outdoors. I love walking along a river bank, Greenlake, beach, or mountain trail, especially if there's a place to cast my line into, and getting off shore in my kayak is heavenly. I am an early riser and early to retire for quiet decompression time. If the weather forces me inside, a good movie or play , book, puzzles, invent a delicious soup, seeing a good comedy act or going to a cozy pub and smoozing with the locals. There's always a walk in the rain or facing the storm wind in my face, waders on, bundled up. I lm an avid road tripper, seeking trout streams and lakes, beautiful vistas, and little backwood towns, and out of the way places. My Hyundai and I travel most of the summer fly fishing or paddling and visiting family and friends along the way. I am hoping to travel more extensively, learn a new language, paint and draw, and read the piles of books on my shelves. I know retirement will open my life to new adventures and relationships. Of course with a new grand baby I will be spending time with them too. My parents are still here, in their 90s, a blessing for sure. I have a quirky and sometimes twisted sense of humor often laughing at the darker side of life, as well as looking for humor in what life has to dish out, especially the humor in our aging minds and bodies. Better to laugh than to cry, eh? Which brings me to this part of my sales pitch, I've tried dating sights before and have met some really great people but have not clicked with a love interest yet. My life is full with friends and family and many things I want to do, one of which is getting to know someone and be with him easily and comfortably and if meant to be romantically.Someone indicated that my summary indicated that I never sit still. I am an introvert, I seek time to myself to recharge. I like time to myself whether in my kayak, reading a good book, or working on my laptop, cooking, writing, or watching TV. I am not on the go all the time, but enjoy planning adventures, implementing them and returning to the cozy place I call home.First Meeting: Go for a walk and/or coffee, happy hour, somewhere public and easy for both of us to get to and visit. We can take it from there.

Do people even care about profiles? Or read them?? Well, whatever. If you have a few minutes, here's the rundown...The short version:I'm smart, sarcastic, sometimes snarky, and maybe some other S words. Never married. No kids. Hoping to find someone I can build a life with, but that starts with dating.Recently made a career shift accompanied by a big move from the LA-area, so life feels pretty surreal right now.If you're still with me, here's the long version:I have a lot to offer the right person.I spent a lot of the past 15 years working insane hours, so I'm excited at the prospect of having more time on my hands. While I can certainly understand the busy-ness of day-to-day life, I'm really hoping to meet someone I can now spend time really getting to know — someone who's interested in taking/making the time to get to know me.I have a brain, and I enjoy using it. I'm hoping you're in the same boat. I have a career (albeit recently heading a new direction) and am fairly driven to be successful at it — and have found that I get along best with others who are, too. There are always exceptions, of course, so you don't need to feel like this is some kind of requirement for saying hello.I grew up in a stable family environment, and I learned to appreciate that long ago. My family is full of smart and fun people, and I enjoy spending time with any of them whenever I can.As an aside, let me say that I'm currently a BBW, but I'm not particularly proud of that fact in the same way some are, so I'm working on changing that. I have found it to be something I really have to be in the right headspace for, and for a long time I wasn't. But I am now, and I'm working on making some significant changes in my health. (Btw, it's working. Just takes time...)My place isn't an option. YOUR place isn't an option. The last thing I want out of a first date is to walk into — let's face it — a STRANGER'S dark apartment and watch a movie in the dark while you shove your tongue down my throat, suggestively place my hand on your crotch, or worse — just whip it out. This is not the stuff relationships are built on. So... Let's do coffee. Maybe dinner. Just someplace we can talk, maybe have a drink, and really GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER. (Hint: This works for second and third dates, too, but if you need a little variety, I can maybe kick your butt at Scrabble or something.) The rest we can play by ear. Be funny, be sensitive, be honest, be willing to make the first move, be intelligent, be patient, be outgoing, but most importantly, be yourself.
