I'm a new golfer but love to play; I enjoy watching football- especially Bret Farve--because he so enjoys the game; when I'm not teaching, I enjoy reading mysteries, walking, movies, travel.... My late husband used to say, "You're the original cheap date!" (It was meant to be a compliment.) It's important to me to do what I think is right; I will speak up when I think something's not right-- I'm no saint; I just have little tolerance for favoritism or prejudice. I enjoy a wide variety of music--Usher, Streisand, Urban, Keys, Beatles.... I've developed a hearing loss that's hampered my life in a number of ways, but I still love to go to concerts! Movies are fun & so are museums; the conversation just needs to be real.

A first date? Holy crap. Maybe a football or basketball game? How about the zoo or Crocker Art Gallery? Maybe we should meet at Borders in the mystery section & see what happens?? Going wine tasting might be fun, but one of us needs to be able to drive. I also think a 'group' gathering would be less pressure; I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable---
