Have been told I'm a fun person - have an engaging personality and witty sense of humor. We don't have enought laughter and free time in our Lives these days so I do my utmost to get as much enjoyment out of Life as possible - attitude helps a lot! Work hard but I play hard, too and at this point I know just how much fun the Law will allow you to have ;-) Have pretty diverse interests, an inquisitive mind, and have enjoyed learning new things since early childhood so you won't want for (hopefully) intelligent conversation when in the mood...

Am ready to find that special someone for a long-term relationship and possibly long-term commitment if things go in that direction. Unfortunately, I'm finding that it's nearly impossible to find someone who's past child-rearing and all it's demands. Was a single parent to two boys myself and know how it can consume ALL of your time and then some. Sure hope there really is someone at that point in Life out there. If this is you, I'd love to hear from you~!!

Lastly, the pic was taken when I was visiting my son in Australia - that's the reason for the Koala and the Auzzie hat. :-)

Very important to have some common interests to talk about - particularly on a first date... Very much like exploring new restaurants and cuisines - particularly fond of Northern Italian and Vietnamese and a host of others so dinner or lunch are usually a good idea. Important for the first date to be long enough to get to know the other person and have a good time but generally speaking first dates shouldn't last all day unless that works out better. OTOH, just coffee is fine too if that's your preference...
