About Me

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.

    Woman. 39 years old. Zodiac sign: Libra.

    Looking for: man. In age: 36-46

    Im looking for a quality guy, who is ready for a real relationship, not a virtual or texting relationship. I want to find a guy to be my best friend, to get to know. I love a guy who likes to wrestle/horse around, stops to pet a dog, wave at a baby with a smile, pillow talk and who will be a best friend who "gets" me. If you are emotionally a cold person it might not work between us. I'm looking for a guy who's confident, takes pride in himself, is responsible, (but still knows how to have a good time), and can make me smile and laugh. I have a weakness for a guy that smells good, has a great smile, is affectionate, who enjoys football or can tolerate my love for it, who can have fun staying in or going out for a night on the town. A guy that doesn't play head games and can actually say what it is he wants or how he feels. What I don't want is drama, friends with benefits, one night stands, fake people, guys in relationships or married men. I dont want a guy telling me what he thinks I want to hear. Im not into games or the guy thats into dating 5 women at once because he's always looking for the next best thing or doesnt really know what he wants.If you want to know about me just ask.PRIVACY NOTICE: Warning--any person and/or *** this website or any of its associated websites, you do NOT have my permission to utilize any of my profile information nor any of the content contained herein including but not limited to my photos.
