If you are MARRIED or SEPARATED...I AM NOT INTERESTED!!! I don't like cheaters and will not help you cheat on someone. Fix what you got!!

***********************************************************************************
I took the time to include pictures and write more than a couple lines about me and what I am looking for....hopefully you have put some equal effort into what I have to see and read about you on your profile.

Looking for a LTR relationship in the long run and some intelligent respectful man who has a brain and is not afraid to use it...LOL Is that too much to ask for?? But you have to start somewhere and a good date for starters to get to know each other is always a good start and see if proceeding is feasible.

I was raised Catholic but don't remember the last time I went to a service.

I am a licensed Cosmetologist since 1983 and have my own business and very much enjoy doing hair but am diverse enough to do office work as well. (currently looking for a nice office job .....office management or finance related) Modeled for about 12 years or so. I also have worked 17 yrs for AT&T until I took the voluntary termination package due to the down sizing that is. Bristol Renaissance Faire...I am a former employee (about 5 years I worked there for MetalMorphysis that made metal masks, dragons and sun catchers, then the rock climbing wall then a custome leather shoppe) and regular attendee 16 + years now of the BRISTOL RENAISSANCE FAIRE in WI. I am also part of a Viking clan at the faire...and beyond where fitting at faire related events. I was a rock climbing instructor for about 4 years working at two indoor gyms and also at the climbing wall at the Bristol Renaissance Faire. Also I am admin for a gaming clan online FPS game.....Unreal Tournament. Ever play?? It is my stress relief....everyone needs a stress outlet. Love chess too!! Wanna play??

Unreal Tournament (as I said above I am part of an admin team for two servers and gaming clan). UT is my stress reliever so I can be a happy human being on crappy days...LOL

Chess, Scrabble, Cosmetology/Beauty related fields of interest, modeled for an agency out of Chicago and NY and did a bit of petite runway modeling as well and work for private photographers for better part of 12 years. I have a very creative streak I love to feed into and that is what always has interested about being a Cosmetologist. Currently I am helping out a girlfriend and we are making leather and fur and feather crafts for sale on our new web site. She has sold these items for over 15 years and just recently dropped her partners she had been working with because they were not helping make inventory and just there with there hands out on pay days. So she has been trying for a bit to have me help out and I have recently started making things with her for sale online and at faires. check us out....http://www.thenakedparrot.com/index.html (the site is under construction still by us and we are frantically working on new inventory since the old partners killed most of the old stuff from lack of care or caring)

Love hiking, rock climbing and camping, the smell of a good campfire and almost anything in the great outdoors!! My favorite camping is now in the fall...the leaves are beautiful and you can separate the wimps from the real outdoorsy people...LOL Renaissance time period related things including the BRISTOL RENAISSANCE FAIRE. Movies.....nothing like a good movie and even better yet snuggling up to someone watching a good movie!! I love to redo furniture and do decorative painting treatments on walls and furniture. Gardening....love to create and watch your creations come to life. At my condo I had forever I won a gardening competition. Cooking is a passion of mine....although cooking for only one is not as much fun and you have lots of left overs. I love things that personally challenge me as far as what I like and dislike and always enjoy broadening those horizons. Beer and Wine tastings are fun....I enjoy both in the right atmosphere. There are tons of things I enjoy doing and tons I love to check out still and would love to find someone who shares some of my interests and passions and wants a friendship so that we find out where it may lead.

Seeking ultimately a long term relationship with a man who has a brain and not afraid to use it...LOL I am a worthy woman to have......are you a worthy man??

I have a ton of interests too many to list here...lets chat...and get to know me other than what I have written here...there is sooooo much more to me than what can be expressed on a sampling of my interests here. Just looking for someone normal to date for starters...is that too much to ask for?? LOL

Here are some of my favorite sayings:
'you can't always judge a book by it's cover you have to read the pages'
'age is just a number and if you don't mind it doesn't matter'.
'We don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing!!!'

Well now were talking first date......ooooo

So at this point we must have exchanged a number of messages back and forth and talked on the phone...and liked each other enough at this point to meet.

Meeting face to face for a first date is important.....puts a face and a person to the messages and voice from the phone. You can always tell pretty quick by meeting if someone is for you or not. But there are instances we could be wrong too...but we will never know until we get face to face.

A first date should be a mutually agreed upon destination that both parties can have fun at and also talk and get to know each other.
