you'll hit the deck, you'll get found out; anybody know that great song from the 80's? I have always been a rocker and love music, mainly rock, metal, alternative. Anything but country or jazz. I grew up on the best and am open to many great artists out there today.

I'm very energetic and game for most anything, except going out on your boat as a first date! Not into couch potatoes. I find laziness and not taking care of yourself to be a turn off. Attracted to men that I can still see the kid in them.

I love to exercise and do some form of it daily. I love to be outside. I have a hard head, big heart and am told that I have a gentle spirit with a fiery temper. The "fiery" part can be an attribute in certain situations. ;) I do tend to sweat the small stuff but am a trooper when it comes to the difficult matters in life.

Been through some lessons and one of them is to trust that intuition. It's always right. Self depracation can be a disguise for conceit. Ugly. And I really like a fellow fish's take on that glass half full "rule". It DOES depend on if you are pouring or drinking, and ummm, what's in the glass. I like that! Those eternal optimists floating along with few problems in life tend to freak and lose it the most, when their world (glass) LOL gets rocked by something so minor.

Having worked many years in construction really came back to bite me so I am actively pursuing a career move into a different industry. I possess great passion for certain areas, industries and interests and will never give up trying. If you only feel this rediculous economy when you go to pay for something, be blessed. Be very glad that you don't have to be out in the job market. What job market?!

I am so ready for a significant change, like moving to a smaller beach town. Been in Tampa all of my life and it was a great place to grow up. MY how it has changed.

Dry sense of humour. The Office is my great escape. Enjoy shopping, what woman doesn't? Love nice things, into fashion and bling, but jeans and a sexy top does the trick, too.

Big animal lover. Of all kinds. They are so innocent and only know love.

I am really looking for email and chat and only then go from there. I have had several profiles (oh there's a reason) but only been on less than a handful of dates, by choice. It is not easy to find that right one that you connect with on all of the right levels. So you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.....the subtle difference between holding a hand or chaining a soul.....to plant your own garden, decorate your own soul.....instead of waiting.....for someone to bring you flowers (Pieces from a great inspirational chick poem)

Somewhere outside, with atmosphere, like an outdoor cafe'. Or there's always good ole Starbucks. Save that long walk on the beach until you get to know someone. And going out on your boat. Do women really fall for that?
