I'm taking a break - I'll message back but unless you live close by
and are a good match, it'll probably be a no thanks.
In real life, I'm always laughing, I'm thin-skinned, I work too
hard and take it seriously (I refuse to admit to too seriously), I
try to find the balance between work and play, I like going outside
and smacking the hell out of my field hockey ball, long walks
ground me, I take myself to my local bar to listen to the bands and
I'm getting really good at entertaining myself on Saturday nights.
I do lots of crafts - I think better when I do something creative.
I read too much and most of it would never be considered
literature. I like listening to others' life stories and I almost
never give up mine.
I'm straight-forward and enigmatic, warm-hearted and reserved,
athletic and perfectly happy curled up on my couch with a good
book. Guess I'm a girl.
Oh and according to one of my friends, I'm a pagan goddess, seducer
of men (edited because he told me I had it not quite right). Not
quite sure how to prove or disprove that...

My Notes edit
My self-summary
What I'm doing with my life
Working (and I love my job so if you don't think women should work,
move on), hanging out with my daughter when she'll grace me with
her presence, doing all the stuff I already mentioned.
I'm really good at
Taking care of myself. That's not to say I don't want to share my
life with someone, but I DON'T need rescuing.
The first thing(s) people usually notice about me
that my eyes really
are that green - enough for my eye doctor to notice.
Oh - I've gone back to my glasses. Contacts are a pain and before you ask, I'm not a candidate for surgery.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I'll admit to bad sci-fi (movies and books - but I find more movies
that are bad than books). Is there something wrong with finding
Tremors funny and being fascinated still by Jurassic Park even
though you know the dinosaurs are fake? I love the movies from the
40's - Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant, Spencer Tracy. They all talk
faster than me!
I read Milton (please don't ask me if I understand it yet), love Stephen King, don't like most Koontz, recently discovered Jim Butcher, occasionally read chick-lit (but no romance novels), poke holes in Dan Brown novels and refuse to read Harry Potter (the first three paragraphs were enough).
I love Better Off Dead, Young Frankenstein, the Hope-Crosby Road movies. Still can't stand Gone With the Wind - I want those 4 hours back! And somehow I forgot Juno - Dream big! I cry when watching What Dreams May Come and I love Sleeping Beauty.
Music - there isn't a genre I can't find something to like. My iPod has everything from bagpipes to Seether with tons of 80's New Wave (my age is showing). Oh and get over the fact I have an iPod - Apple isn't more evil than Microsoft! It's far easier than carting hundreds of CDs around.
Unlike others, I'm not a TV snob. I like TV - Boston Legal, Project Runway, Top Chef, Lost, X-Files (I know it's not on - do I look stupid), Gilmore Girls.

The six things I could never do without
my daughter
books/library/internet - heck, anything I can read!
my toothbrush
my friends
My camouflage Keds
the sixth? don't know yet

I spend a lot of time thinking about
if I'll ever finish the book I started to write
On a typical Friday night I am
hanging with friends, at happy hour, at home - who knows, I take it
as it comes - sometimes plan, usually don't (I don't like over
planning)
How about my typical Saturday? I like me, I really do, but there's only so many topics I can discuss by myself (yes, I'm an amazing conversationalist and I do listen rather well but well, I've heard all the stories and not to insult the teller, but they are getting stale).

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here
Why?
You should message me if
Yes, Tim, I'm editing this again.
OK, here are the basic standards (and I'll own up to that they are all shallow).
1. You are around my age. If you don't know who Echo and the Bunnymen are, you think either the Police are for law enforcement or an oldies band, we aren't right for each.
2. You are taller than me - yes, this is my hang-up but it's mine.
3. You weigh more than me. I'm a girl. I feel fat as it is. I don't need that image re-enforced.
4. You like more than just watching football and you don't mind that I can't stand it. I like ice hockey and golf. I'm open to other sports but not football or baseball. Oh, I do understand them. I don't like them. You don't have to like classical music - it goes both ways.
5. I go back and forth on smoking. When I'm ready to quit, I do. If you bug me about it, I'll dig in my heels. Not mature but I know that.
6. I color my hair for ME. I don't care if you like it or not. That's your standard. Oh and I shave everything - again, for ME.
7. In the DC/Baltimore area, driving can be long and painful. Live within 20 miles. Dating won't work otherwise.
8. You DO NOT live with your parents (unless they need you there).
