My self-summary
I am a practical person who also happens to be an optimist. I have a quick wit and am not afraid to use it but only in good fun.
I have come to the conclusion that I'm a philosophical romantic.   So I'm currently trying to make that sound like a good thing and not a character flaw...so if you feel you have a grasp on how that could be a good trait, please do let me know.  
I'm looking to have someone to share my life with.

I have one adult son so I don't have to get home to a sitter...although I do have a cute little dog that needs to be walked.
What I’m doing with my life
I work hard managing a family business but still feel like I don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
I like to keep busy doing things that make me happy or reach my next goal.

Yes the box about body type says overweight...no not by 5 pounds...I'm a plus sized woman but I do have a shape.
I’m really good at
Figuring stuff out (whether it's what's happening in a movie or book or what's going on around me). This comes in handy when playing games with friends where I have to guess...whether they are acting something out or drawing...I'm a great guesser.

I am practicing....most things. I am learning to live in every moment and appreciate that.

I enjoy setting the tone for whatever is going on. People often tell me they feel so "at home" in my home. Yes it has comfy furniture but I think it's more about how I make people feel welcome.
The first things people usually notice about me
That I'm confident and easy to be around.
Physical traits would be- My curly hair, blue eyes and curves.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Shows...any cop show, medical drama...love that stuff..and of course a well written comedy. Currently love Game of Thrones, Dexter, Homeland and new favorite The Newsroom. Just started watching The Walking Dead. The Big Bang Theory is brilliant and always makes me laugh.

Movies...love suspense thrillers... Memento, Seven, Inception, The Bourne collection, Usual Suspects, Shawshank Redemption (I realize not a suspense thriller but I do like it...it's one of those that if it's on I will watch it again) etc.

Music is a very long list... U2 is my favorite band, love lots of different music though. I do love music and will often be found singing along.
I especially enjoy seeing music live....new local bands, established, doesn't matter...love it all.

Books...I always have at least 3 going at once...and they typically sit on the bedside table (fiction).
The six things I could never do without
coffee
music
iphone
car
my favorite pillow
current book of choice
I spend a lot of time thinking about
*How to be present in whatever I'm doing so the answer is always changing... I like the idea of spending time thinking.

*The moments in life that pass us by without any recognition.

*People are essentially simple technology in a complicated package.

*That the last sentence is total crap.

*That bullet points make my brain happy!
On a typical Friday night I am
Either relaxing at home after work or hanging out with friends.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I have a fantasy of selling everything and travelling the world. I do believe at some point in my life I will pursue this.
I’m looking for
  • Guys who like girls
  • Ages 36–51
  • Near me
  • Who are single
  • For long-term dating
You should message me if
You must be willing to meet...**not interested in long distance romance.** So let's grab a cup of coffee/drink and see if we click.
