I suppose, people often seem to notice my genuine caring, presence, grace, sweetness, attentiveness, joie de vivre, femininity, intelligence, forthrightness..., or perhaps is it my hands, my lips, my eyes, my hair, my legs, my ...?

My interests are quite varied. I'm a fit, creative, capable, interested, smart, feminine, gentle and passionate person. I try to find enjoyment, elegance and connection in all I do.
A few of my favorites however are eating a just picked tomato, swimming in warm, calm ocean water, dancing, cooking, attending cultural events ... whatever involves the senses, learning, inspiring, sharing, exploring, creating.... ie. opera, eating, hiking, diving, cooking, dancing, reading, entertaining, laughing, loving....
Just before writing this, I read today's Wall Street Journal and NY Times. I read fiction, non-fiction, email, websites, magazines, instructions.... One of my favorite books that come to mind however is "Stranger in a Strange Land" by Robert Heinlein, but that was a very long time ago.
Through the years, I've certainly had numerous "favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food(s)".
I am self-employed and my time is my own to spend in any way I choose. NYC is my city and I love it here.

loved ones, passion, food, water, contentment, creativity, culture, joy, organization, honesty, sweetness, intelligence, wisdom, spontaneity, elegance, eloquence and being still. Even though there are more than six here, I can't find any that I could do without.

a lot.

involved in that specific, unique Friday night.

In order to remain visible during searches by age range, I've understated my age and I'm actually 63. The pictures, however are all of me and are current, except the "leg" picture. The legs are also mine but this picture was taken a couple years ago - legs, including mine, don't change. I also had a curly haired permanent in that picture which I don't have anymore. In response to my "Personality" bars on another page here, I easily live within my means, I'm not a spendthrift, I'm less old fashioned in some ways and more old fashioned in others, and I am extremely well organized; indeed. The "most" private thing I'm willing to admit? Well, perhaps you'll find out.

I fit your fancy and you think you would enjoy being in an exciting, enchanting relationship that is emotionally safe and empowering; hot, sensual, stimulating, cultured and elegant; happy, satisfying, interesting and fun.
