Intelligent, overworked professionally, underwhelmed personally... looking for somebody in SE Mass/greater Providence for nights at the Philharmonic... or Trinity Rep... or Al Forno... or bowling... or staying home and making soup... or golf... or weekends on Block Island... you get the idea...

Working... trying to break 80... occasionally wondering if I'm going to be bagging groceries when I'm 70...

cooking. Really. I can cook. "Sardonic witticisms" iaren't necessarily a skill, I guess...
