The main photograph is a homage to a photographer friend, Henry Minski, who died too young. My mom died this year, cancer sucks as do most siblings. That said:

My Christmas tree has been up since before Halloween. :) I do believe in Santa :) it's the spirit of giving year round...IS too. I'm tall but small, slender & since we LA'ers live in our cars, meeting quality and/or real people is - difficult.

Have laptop, will travel. Friendship is a lost art form. How about--I want to meet & greet new friends to expand, enlarge & enrich my circle of friends in life both personally and professionally?

I am open to a long term relationship. I have much to share & that would be - ME. I don't fall in love easily but when I do? My heart opens slowly and with depth. No room for the shallow. Wide open waters? Yes!

Dreams are the gifts we're born to share, never let another deter you from them. If someone cares, they'll help, if not? Get rid of 'em. Like people who hate garlic. :)

No desire to be perfect & not a princess... but, I could be swept off my feet. I don't do instant messages. I think prison personals does...time & all that.. OMG she wants me to read? Yup. :)

I raised a boy, (dbocanegra.deviantart.com) as a SOLO--not single--parent from 4 months old (his father died--) Hands down one of the best people I've met on this planet. (ô¿ô) I skip/dance canyons or waves of the sea.

There is no wrong side of the pond... Don't be shy to say "Hi" shoot a mail.

I'm an oxymoron--beats being a moron. I view the world through the eyes of a childlike wonder yet have experienced much. Admission: I flunked mind-reading school. Please TELL me what you mean.

I love to walk, backwards in the rain with my mouth open. Your hand at the small of my back would be greatly appreciated.

I'm more European raised than American so my humor is a bit different as is my outlook. @(Ô*Ô)@

"The Promise" by Tracy Chapman..yeah.

I laugh as easily as I cry, tears make rainbows of the soul. Ever held someone's face in your hands & truly looked deeply into their eyes? The hidden smiles, giggles, fears & the beauty of being human reside there. Divine :)

Friendship is a must, it's much deeper than lust. (o¿o) I tend to confuse, amuse but not here to abuse. I've taken a long time off from dating & have I online dated before? Yes, but I'm here aren't I? And... so are you. Aren't we all 29? What'd ya set your range at? Mine are open.

I've got your back if you've got mine. Please have an understanding of artistic people sans the "type" judgment. Golf is NOT a sport. (It's ok, don't get your knickers in a knot :)

I've ridden an Orca, touched the whale's tail in Magdalena Bay and called one enormous gray 40 footer that eye-hopped beside my panga.

To those who want no drama? Jump into an Orca tank... dramatic! DARE to risk, romance and take a chance!

If you go to the sea that I love and laid your head upon my chest, the only waves you'll hear are out there... but you'd hear my heartbeat. ha :) Nope, not expanding my chest for anyone. Wouldn't ask you to enlarge your... :X

Ever lean against a person's back and inhale their essence? My house is not my home, my heart is.

Laughter and kindness are as important as animals & kids loving you... cause if they don't? Chances are... neither will I.. :)

Surprise me :) NOT the walk on the beach thing--sandcastle maybe.. and.. Coffee meets are--BOWSER checks. When the rubber meets the road? Yup, are too.

TRAVEL..Not afraid to jump, wanna fly! Not be grounded, bore-ing. I'm shyer than ya think, we're all scared in this sea of life... so dive in.

Distance deters only those w/no imagination...

I found this on a man's profile, smart man.
