Live a rich full life. That is my goal, always. I like live music and travel. I enjoy my life and unlike many folks I know, I love my job. I am happily married with a daughter in college. Yes my wife knows I am on here. Yes, you can talk to her. AppleMc No we are not a package deal. I love strong, independent women.
I have a great social life and still have friends that I had when I was 15. I am a big fan of eating out but I also like just going to coffee.
If you have not clicked away yet, then the situation may not be entirely untenable for you. I believe that one can have a serious meaningful relationship even within the context of my situation.

I have the best work/life balance of anyone I know. For the most part, I am very satisfied with my job and I have a decent amount of time off. I reached my educational goals and so now learning can be simply for fun. I love taking roadtrips across three states just to see something that has caught my interest in a book or article.

Preparing for the zombie apocalypse. Teaching. Bartending.

The hair I think is what most people see first. It is nice because it tends to throw people off a little. They assume things based on the way I look and not through talking to me.

I dearly love food and I will try just about anything. I cannot think of a type of food that does not interest me. My favorites are Hot Pot, Greek, seafood, and Italian. I like the books of Christopher Moore and Chuck Palahniuk. I love music and finding new music is always fun to me. Right now I am listening to lots of Lucero, The Hold Steady, and Trampled by Turtles. I have season tickets to the opera as well. I love the classics. I am a big fan of Shakespeare in both the written form and in performance. I go to the Houston Shakespeare Festival every year.

Music-People have a soundtrack.
Travel-Its about being able to experience something else and then being able to come home.
Work- I love my time off but I get antsy when I don't have something to do. See remedy above.
Friends- I make time for friends frequently and I consider that part of a great life.
Showers- I do not camp. I feel like I should, but if it is more that one night...I really want to be clean.
Coffee- I not only like it but also view it as a social opportunity.

My next travel adventure. I have traveled all over the world and I like to think about where to go next. If you have suggestions, let me know.

Out to eat. Maybe either some live music or just an evening on the couch. Probably coffee of drinks with folks at some point in the evening.

I am scared of three things. Rats, flying, and speaking in public. And two of the three I deal with on a regular basis.

You should message me if you are interested. I enjoy smart independent women. It might be a little different but it could be fun.
