My first day as an online dater, a "gentleman" (perhaps appropriately self-titled as Kidneyshovel) asked me to come over and hang out in his basement at 11 PM. Hmmm.....not really a basement kind of girl.And so it goes, here I am, again, giving it a try...I love books. I fantasize about being trapped in a library for months and reading all the books on my wish list (IQ84), and all the books I'd love to experience again (Of Human Bondage), and all the books I didn't really like, if only to give them the second chance they deserve (sorry Moby-Dick).I am deeply affected by beauty--even something as small as the way light makes shapes on a dusty floor. Colors, fabrics, fashion, buildings, birds, all attract and hold my eye. I can't help but assign meaning, which probably isn't there, to the smallest visual details.I love dancing, well, any kind of movement really. I like to tiptoe and twirl, cartwheel and climb, leap and lunge, sway and swoon. Take me dancing and we're off to a swimming start. I don't think adults are playful enough. I'd like to meet someone who has a healthy sense of play and fun.These are a few of my favorite things:TV: Mad Men, Game of Thrones, Boardwalk Empire (loving season 4), Six Feet Under, House of Cards, early seasons of Parks and Rec.-Up Bird Chronicles (love everything by Murakami), The Executioner's Song, The History of Love, Sophie's Choice...A few of the things I can do:**Palm a basketball (a woman with very large--yet feminine!--hands)**Dominate the scrabble board (a woman of many words)**Recite a few Shakespearean sonnets (a woman inspired by beauty)**Knock back a dozen cookies in one sitting (a woman of serious appetites)**Fall asleep within 30 seconds of my head contacting the pillow (a woman with a clean conscience)**Rock funky leopard heels, skinny jeans and t-shirt (a woman with a sense of fashion)***I am a few years older than my age posted here, but men often cap their search at ***an age I can easily pass for (: If you find the fact that I've done this dishonest (which is weird since I'm stating it here), then there are certainly no hard feelings on my end, but chastising me as your opening line, well...honestly, I'd prefer to be invited to a basement by Kidneyshovel. Something short and sweet: a walk through the park or at the beach (not the boardwalk though as I was run over by a drunk bicyclist on a meetville date!), or a glass of wine.I don't exchange phone numbers (and for very good reason--the whole one bad apple spoils the whole barrel thing), so we will have to arrange things via messages through meetville. If we meet and, god forbid, we are not a match, let's end things gracefully. And by gracefully I mean no hard feelings and no need for follow up *** the initial recognition and so-be-it-I-wish-you-well exchange. We've all been there, or at least had the impulse to want to keep writing, but my lack of interest is not a statement about your value and vice versa.

I've been here 9 years. I'm comfortable in my own skin, happy with my life and some would even say I'm successful in my career:-) I love to smile and laugh which goes well with your witty sense of humor. I'm caring, loyal and honest to a fault. You will rarely wonder what I'm thinking.A couple other adjectives that describe me: Open, Goofy, Quirky, Giggly, Happy, Stable, Passionate, INTJHere is a little more about you:**I am looking for my best friend, someone who is passionate, charismatic, loyal and knows how to love and be loved. You probably have a sarcastic side to you, know how to make people around you comfortable and believe that commitment is about the good as well as the bad. There is also a good chance that you have a little flavor in your ethnicity'.**I'm not looking for a quick hook-up. meetville has a reputation as a hook up site. I am hoping to meet someone who is looking for a partner in crime and someone to love and be loved by ... Thanks for stopping by :-) Coffee, short lunch...

Fishing is so one sided. Jump in my boat, show me what your really about and if I like you we can peel out of here into the sunset. Leave boring fishing behind. No bottom feeders and no sharks.As a child I was terrible at selling candy bars for my softball team. My parents ended up buying most of them. I'm not here to sell myself. Even in light of my stiff meetville competition. I am human. I am not perfect. I have integrity and I am proud not to be a follower. I come from a loving home so my family is important to me. I care what people think of me and I don't like drama. I like rock music, I consider myself open minded. I like off the wall personalities. Straight to the point and generally not afraid to voice my opinions. If my profile is "really lame", none of this is going to matter apparently. A great first date is when you arrive home still excited.
