From Northern NY state
Moved here: 8 years ago
Other places I have lived: DE, MD, CA and NE
Where I live now: close to uptown Charlotte, in my house with a roommate and 3 dogs (2 mine, 1 his).
Most of my pics are from the last 1-3 months.

I am: Independent, driven and confident, yet can be a total push over at times, loving, funny, sarcastic, loyal, affectionate... a loving person who loves quality together time and also a woman who values time to herself...

What I am looking for:
a long term relationship
someone who "gets" me.
someone not to "complete me", but someone who knows the 2 of us together are better than we are apart
someone who values my opinion and my independence, BUT who is the one at the end of the day, that takes charge in the relationship.

If you've ever seen "Flipping out", that's basically what I do (without all of the drama). I do well for myself, business is good.. :) I work in a man's world, hold my own and do it in a skirt as easy as in jeans and cowboy boots, lol :-p.

There is a lot, but even more that I am not good at. :) there is still so much to learn in this world and I am open!

My dimples... my smile in general. =)

I like a WIDE variety of things... Music: from Hip-Hop&Top 40 to Jazz and Hard rock. I literally have Kenny G to 2pac to Nine Inch Nails. Food: Hole in the walls to fine dining... nothing like a great steak and a fabulous glass of wine though. Movies: Cheezy fun movies to Action or Drama... I am up for seeing it, I will think twice before committing to seeing a horror flick though. =) Books: Anything that can keep my attention in the first chapter or some kind of DIY or design magazine.

besides your given: food, shelter, water, I would have to say the following:

spell check, I am an awful typer, I always put at least one letter in a sentence out of order.

my dogs, LOVE them, so stinkin cute.

Caffeine of somesort...coffee, tea, shot in a smoothie, gurana something, I love a little kick start in the AM (don't NEED it, but I sure do like it).

rainy days, the feeling you get when something just "feels" right, music that makes me wanna sing and rock out in the car (which is a lot).

how to stop procrastinating so much and just get back to work...lol... I work all of the time, BUT I work best under pressure, so sometimes, I sit on OK Cupid (or do some other random fun thing)and allow for the pressure to build, so I can hammer out the task at hand with even more focus afterward. haha!

home watching a movie or 20/20, out with a girlfriend for drinks, going to an art show, hockey game... maybe on a date (if you ask me nicely, I may accept). =)

Hmmmmm, I am pretty open, so ask when we are out and I may share something fun with you.

you actually read my profile and think I am cute.

Have a lead for me for a house to flip.

Even if you aren't interested in seeing what we could have together, maybe you have a friend you'd like to introduce me to! haha!

You are looking for more than a "good time", with someone who is always a good time. =)
