Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

For fun, I like exploring San Francisco, beachcombing, car washes that become water fights, wordplay battles that make people say “You must be related!” white water rafting, fishing, and snorkeling.

Some of my favorite things are driving & singing at the top of my lungs, people who understand Starbucks (real men grind their own beans), This Old House, fireplaces, falling asleep with purring cats, garnets, opals, making my nephews giggle.

Some of my favorite places are Bristol, New York City, London, Key West, San Francisco, and anywhere I'm with friends. I'd love to add to that list, but that will have to wait until my next vacation.

What am I looking for in a partner? Simple really. In the movie ‘Sabrina’ they go out to dinner intending to go to a Broadway show afterward. However, they sit in the restaurant talking and laughing for so long they completely miss the show. It’s that rare level of connection with someone. You don’t find it with the average person you meet on the street. That degree of connection with someone is so precious that when you do find it, you have to hold onto it because it’s just so incredible. We’d get home way later than planned, apologize profusely to the babysitter, look in on our sleeping little darlings, and then…well, you can imagine the good bits. Except I want flowers too. Hey a girl has to have some standards, right?

I’m looking for someone who understands friendship. “Why are you doing this?” “Because she’s my friend and she needs me,” should say everything to you. Obviously, friends are very important to me and they should be to you as well. You should want to know that your friends think well of me and care about their good opinion. Friends are the family you get to choose. How’s this sound? White picket fence, 3-4 kids (yours, mine, ours, foster) running around, lotsa pets, lives outside of work, friends/family over all the time, life enjoyed! I want a life with someone that has ties to somewhere, yet still wants to travel, see, do, and enjoy the lot of it – with me.
