I am American born (was )living in Israel for almost 16 years ... whew thats a long freakin time! I loved it there, but priorities in life change with the years, and it was time to go home- I missed my family and old friends...besides I need to finally see the gators be a top 5 team- guess i missed that one this year!

Sorry guys off the market (married with kid)... but Id love to use this portal for meeting old friends...and maybe some new ones as well as to help set up my still single friends. I have been fairly successful as a match maker, my first one being in Jr high school and they are married with 2 kids. I have a few single friends left that I would love to help meeting people on the net- they are either not believing in the media or arent too tech savy. I also love networking and have found this to be a wonderful and fun way to go about it. We are new to the area and would love to meet like minded friends, couples, single or not to hang with or set up with single friends... and no no kinky group sex stuff ;P..

I find chats to be pretty invasive cause they just pop up without your permission.. so if you want to get to know me, my husband, or some of my friends... try messages first instead.

Again- if i wink at you, write you, or give you some stars- most likely I see something in you that I think would mesh well with one of my single friends.

Unfortunately my attempts at talking to girls has led to a few uncomfortable conversations with me trying to convince them that yes i am here just looking for gal pals.

I am outgoing, sensitive, and independent

Raising our toddler enjoying life

Computers- finding things on the net, putting together a pc, art, getting animals to trust me, kissing, giving advice, giving massages, seeing the beauty in something that might be ordinarily overlooked, figuring out plots to movies or tv shows, remembering random quotes from movies, songs and tv- im like a walking imdb, and well, you know....

My smile, my accent- for some strange reason some people mention that I have one (must be from too many years living abroad), my longish blond hair (now dyed redish- now back to blondish), my smile, the fact that I own a ton of Gator apparel and usually have a 6 ft 4 guy by my side.- and occasionally the big air cast boot i have on my healing foot from an old tae kwon do injury that resurfaced. And now I get noticed by my gorgeous son that makes every head turn his way.

lots of things..then i tend to get a headache.....

Wouldn't you like to know.... ah nothing that great.. probably catching up on my dvr from the week- that and trying to "indoctrinate" my husband to become more American by showing him old 80s and 90s movies esp John Hughes (RIP). In the fall traveling Gainesville to see Gator games :). Lately finding a new project to fix up our house.

Im afraid that I have lived abroad too long that my English is stuck at a high school level. I also wonder if it was the right move coming back. America isnt the same as I left it. Also we are kind of stuck between two worlds- more American? more Israeli?? still yet to be determined.

im a bit lonely socially- for girlfriends since mine are scattered all over. We also havent found that really great couple to hang out with.

You think we might know each other or you think we might share similar interests and hopefully an open minded maybe even world traveler......OR even better.....
you work in IT in the central Florida area or Media- would love to network.
