About Me

"wabi-sabi is the Japanese art of finding beauty in imperfection and profundity in nature, of accepting the natural cycle of growth, decay, and death. . . it reveres authenticity above all" - tadao andoBeing a wabi-sabi woman in our American culture can be a challenge. My mother has always told me, "It's not so much that people change, but that they become more truly who they really are." The experience of authenticity, for me, is much more a process of uncovering, that discovering. Lofty words, right? But what does it really mean? My path is the process of figuring that out.I love to read. I love to follow my curiosity down twisting paths of research. I love to combine science, nature, literature and daily experiences into syncretic creations that I can share with clients and congregations. I love to public speak. I love to laugh and have a truly obnoxious appreciation of puns. I love my parents and enjoy long conversations with them both, on a weekly basis. I LOVE my kid! She is the most amazing person I have ever met and has taught me more about how to practice authenticity, in the past 8 years, than I could have imagined possible. I love being a mother and all the opportunities to become a better person that if presents. I love the intense aliveness that I experience when I am intimately connecting with people. I love to listen to people's stories about what is real for them, what makes them come alive, regardless of what that is. Enthusiasm is a huge turn on for me. I have been losing my hearing since I was 5 years old and am now almost completely deaf. I have phenomenal speech-reading skills, and most people would never know how hearing impaired I am. My hearing loss leads to some of my most contradicting realities. I love music, but can't understand lyrics. This may be why most of my favorite music is either world or ***, although I am an avid fan of classic rock. Oh, and the blues - that's a wabi-sabi thing, for sure. I love to listen to people, but often I hear more of what is not being said and that can offend some people. A lot of people hide behind their words, not realizing how much their body language is giving away. Because of the energy it takes, I am not a fan of small talk. I'd rather sit in silence with someone than exchange banalities. I value face-to-face communication above all else, but have a kid-on-Christmas-morning love for technology, too. Texting and FaceTime rock! Good God, I have no idea how to answer this. So much would depend on you! I love to learn and experience new things, and since enthusiasm is such a turn on for me, I can imagine that sharing something you wildly enjoy would work. I can imagine that meeting for coffee or frozen yogurt, over a game of Scrabble or Clue, could be fun. I love taking long drives and motorcycle rides. I really enjoy DIY projects and power tools. I enjoy boating and being on or near the water. I love hiking and discovering new places. I also enjoy cooking (and eating), as well as watching others cook.

    I am not interested in hook ups, don't ask. I know I'm sexy but I'm also a woman of virtue. I have morals and don't believe that dating needs to include sleeping with every Tom,**** and Harry....or every Harry**** LOL I am an intelligent, happy, resilient, and loving woman. I have a great sense of humor that leans a little towards sarcasm. I love to learn and while I may sometimes seem flip, I feel and think deeply. I like to try new things, some of the things I want to try include: bungee jumping, sky diving, riding in a hot air balloon, scuba diving, backpacking through the wilderness, and I'll add to my list as I think of things. Feel free to make suggestions....I work hard and like to spend my free time learning. If there is one thing that my friends complain about most, it's that I always have my phone in my hand and it's not to talk or text with them. I can get engrossed in learning about a new subject just because it caught my interest. If you ask me what something is or means...chances are I can tell you. I take pride in the fact that my friends know that they can come to me for answers to things. I find intelligence and a sense of humor to be the two most attractive qualities in a man. These are absolute musts for me. I'd like to find a guy with whom I can have an intelligent conversation or laugh our asses off acting like goofballs. I'd like to just meet up and see how that goes before planning a date.

    I love life and I LOVE to laugh. I've been told I have a great smile. I am honest and kind but I have bad days too (who doesn't, right?) I am 34 plus shipping and tax (aka 40), 5'6 BBW with brown hair and grey eyes. I am divorced with no children of my own, but I love kids and am "auntie" to all my friend's kids. I have a passion for all things medieval. This chivalry, the romance, the elaborate clothing... but really it is the music and arts that I love. Music is HUGE in my life. I love almost all forms of music; from Enya to Slipknot to Pink to Zac Brown Band, they are all on my iPod. I sing (no really), play the piano and I also play a Dumbek drum and belly dance. I love to go out dancing with my friends.Movies are big on my list too. I'm not real wild about horror movies, but people love to take me to watch them because I'm so jumpy, they get extra entertainment when they take me... lolI love to spend time with my friends and family. Playing board games, cards, or video games, watching sports live or on TV, going to movies, fishing and camping are all favorites. Mostly, if I can spend time with someone and laugh I am up for it. I love to go shooting and I'm a decent shot, so look out! ;) If you are against guns, you are probably not for me. I have a gun, I carry when I travel and I have no problems using it if needed.I love all animals. Dogs and cats especially, but horses and other animals as well. They each have their own personalities and are so unique, they are simply amazing to me.Intelligence is a HUGE turn on for me. Give me someone I can talk to for hours on end and I am one happy girl. :) Maybe coffee or go for a walk. Get a feel for each other and see if we share some interests and hopefully laugh a lot!!!!! :)
