I work in IT after years working in banking...I love to read but it comes in waves - novels, historical fiction, non-fiction, politcal and science...I am fluent in Italian and lived in Italy for 5 years...I love words and I an always saying "Ooo.. good word!" when I hear one. I really love to dance and have been trying many different types - belly, ballroom, salsa, swing, argentine tango as well as plain social dancing. I like all sorts of music and I am spending more and more time listening to a radio or a CD/IPOD rather than the TV - I hate all the commercials. I watch a lot of PBS...love reruns of Seinfeld, West Wing, House...can't think of others now but I have started watching Fringe, Numbers Big Bang Theory when I do watch - I DVR so I don't limit or define my life with TV. I can go for long stretches without watching the boob tube! I love old movies especially those with dancing. Anything well written is great, I love going to small indy theaters.

First dates...I am shy at first even if I had spoken on the phone many times so something that would allow for "FaceTime" coffee, dinner, a walk, a museum. I want to get to know the person I am meeting.
