Let's jump right into this surreal world with a few things those who know me best have said about me: smart, funny (though a wee bit dry and sarcastic), creative, passionate, kind of a Super-Dad!, confident, artistic, a stunning conversationalist [ok i may have added the "stunning" part], definitely not afraid to be affectionate, a study in dichotomy (which I'll take as: Don't put me in a box and file under any one heading!) erudite, perceptive, eclectic, inquisitive, hopelessly(full) romantic w/o being quixotic, and born in the wrong era.
A man who means what he says, a music loving/wine enthusiast/ex-punk rocker/super-dad, equally at home sipping Prosecco at a Polo match (which if you haven't been - let's GO!) or a Corona at the beach.
True story: I am a die-hard romantic and still believe that an intelligent, strong, independent woman wouldn’t mind a little 1940's (Bogart and Bacall) style chivalry and romance w/more than a bit of fun mixed in!
I am blessed with four absolutely amazing children (yes, I know, I know, a one-man Brady Bunch or perchance a reality show in the making ...The Bachelor plus 4?!), and, I look forward to meeting you, if you're still reading this!!

I truly believe that more importantly than what interests we share in common or what location we first meet, is the connection itself that we have as if two old friends are meeting again after a long time apart, talking, laughing, and getting lost in each others eyes.
Love discovering great little out of the way places, funky little bistros that serve tapas and make an amazing martini or a cool snuggery for killer coffee and dessert, old bookstores, live music, wine tastings, the theater, reading, foreign films, Polo, museums and galleries.

I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No, not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening, but love that... overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable - like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love - like there has never been in any play.
~ Shakespeare in Love

I LOVE great conversation, music (my tastes range from jazz to reggae, classical to The Clash), reading, the arts, NPR, good wine and food, the ocean and that's more than six but I'm a non-conformist... sue me!
