especially if the funny thing is one of my foibles
I do have a few things I take very (sometimes too) seriously
I garden seriously - sort of evangelical with friends trying to get them to plant trees & put in raised beds & other obsessions since childhoood
read Johny Appleseed at influence-able age
love my figs & grapes & chestnuts & berries - trying to create a urban garden for food, privacy & air conditioning by grape & other overhead plant - peas, beans, tomatoes on trelises
my ideal world future has many dinner parties in a beautiful backyard with lotsa healthy food
COHOST would be great - but so would a good friend who would invite me to her dinner parties & events & I can invite her to mine.
many amusing friends from MTSU area - especially ultimate frisbee friends & profs
I like things that make me happy especially conversations with interesting amusing people
have historically developed crushes on women who compete in some way
first crush little girl in 6th grade who spun me down to floor while square dancing - she knew I was trying to throw her down
totally smitten
frequent crushes also from passionate talking
someone with a passion for some book or natural history or art or music or philoso ....
maybe share gardening? cooking? playing?
nice if my partner's mind & body look like they've has some enjoyable exercise lately
want to travel more with good company
plenty of resources for a few foreign foray's a year
I do garden a lot love my urban greenery
meet me for coffee come over to pick from a tsunami of snow peas? free food possibly amusing talk
need to find a garden-sitter for the travel events
progressive politically - occasionally teach history at MTSU
I'm sure I laugh much more than average
ideal life would include eating with an amusing group a few times a week
MY PERFECT match would be a morning person who enjoys the sunrise & browsing in the garden & play in the wood heated greenhouse in cold weather
I love cold winter mornings in my wood-stove heated greenhouse love lots of sun in the winter
If you just like to cook veggies I'll provide lots of beautiful raw materials
If romance strikes you may not want to move in - at least at first
my interior decorating more "bachelor farmer" than Martha Stewart
but I'm creating quite a cool urban garden
20 raised beds, grape air conditioning, figs Chinese Chestnuts
I'm right up your alley if you like to talk history or politics or art or books or what that crazy movie meant
I have wonderful woman friends but really need a partner who wants to spend a lot of her time with me – both exciting or goofy just cooking eating gardening together
I want ONE romance in my life
I don't think you can have too many friends ; I hope my romantic interest won't ask me not to continue to be a loyal friend
people with large communities of friends live longer
my favorite grandmother could wear me out when she was 70 lived to 108 - funny witty to the end
hope to live up to her example
If you read this far you're a tenacious reader & if we meet & we'll probably like each other & you get at least free veggies & hopefully invitations to dinner parties
