A true renaissance woman, I have delved into painting, writing, sculpting, music and photography. I champion great artists and musicians and don't like it when the house is too quiet unless I'm focusing on thinking.

I'm not afraid to admit that Disco still works for me when I'm on the stairmaster at the gym. I have lived circa de aqua for most of my life and can't imagine being too far from the water. My neighbors used to call me "Nature Girl" because you can't keep me inside during the summer.

Have never lived anywhere above the mason dixon line because snow is too cold. I sew quilttops in the winter and entertain myself with sudoku or LSAT logic games.

I read inspirational literature daily because I want to best control what I put into my mind, hence, I don't watch scary movies. In with the good, out with the bad.

I listen to all kinds of music but disdain RAP. Big band, opera, symphonic, jazz, blues, rock n roll, rockabilly, some country, and funk are my favorites. I especially require the masters (Bach, Handel, etc) while reading scientific literature & technology materials).

I know only how to say I Love you in sign language, but some day I'd like to learn a lot more. My family tells me I ought to find a way to publish my missives because they are funny and worth reading over and over.

I adore my good friends and am lucky to have a few I've known for 30 years or more.

I am known best for my homemade macaroni and cheese, my curry chicken and my meatloaf (with or without turkey).

I laugh easily except when I don't get the joke.

In others I value quick wittedness and a contagious laugh, gifted intelligence, physical fitness and above all kindness and compassion. I love roadtrips, and going to the zoo or the museums.

I'm easy to get along with and plants grow for me. I sure would like to find an agreeable partner with whom I feel some sparks.

Place not as important as what we make of it. Once had a first date at a hockey game on the glass. That was so exciting! Other fun first dates involved a ferris wheel ride after a meal on the boardwalk.
