If age is merely a state of mind then I'm 35 and holding. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. No, I'm not actually 35. But if you need to know, I'm old enough to know better and young enough not to care. My motto is work hard but play harder. My philosophy about life is from a quote attributed to William Purkey,

Dance like no one is watching,
love like you'll never be hurt,
sing like no one is listening,
and live like it's heaven on earth.

If you are into playing games or looking for a one-night stand, please don't waste my time. I have neither the desire, patience, nor time to deal with you. I am an intelligent, articulate, and independent lady looking for a gentleman who can appreciate me for who I am. I have a great life and am not desperate. I'm just looking for someone to share it.

I love to dance, dance, and dance some more. I adore the feel of the sun on my back and the wind in my face whether I am riding the back of a horse, a motorcycle, in my convertible or on a boat. I have an eclectic taste in music. My favorite is "belly-rubbin” music, classic soul or R&B. I find the music and the words reach deep inside of me and touch my inner soul. My other favorites are oldies, classic rock, southern rock, country, classic or easy jazz, christian rock and some classical. I do not like hip-hop, rap, funk or heavy metal or anything else where foul-language or gestures predominate. I am comfortable wherever I am, whether it is at a 4-star restaurant or drinking beer at a fish fry. I am a self-confessed flirt with a dry sense of humor. I am a good cook and I enjoy cooking occasionally, especially when cooking with that special someone; but I am not your housekeeper, private chef or mother. I will be your friend, lover and partner in adventure. I would like nothing better than to spend the evening cuddling up on the sofa on a long winter's night before a roaring fire staring into my lover's eyes. I love to travel and have lived in or seen most of the United States, including Alaska, and the Caribbean.

I love to laugh and the sexiest thing to me about a man is his sense of humor, a genuine smile with a twinkle in his eye that says he loves life and is not content to let it pass him by. I'm hoping to find a playmate who loves life and is not content watching it go by the kitchen window. A man who believes in romance and public displays of affection and man who is willing to start with friendship and see where it goes from there. I'm looking for a man who can say more than um, yeah and nope. Two-way communication is the foundation of any relationship. I don't lie, cheat, or steal and do not play games. I am not interested in control freaks, game players, users or liars. I like drama on TV but not in my life, life is to short. I am not looking for an one-night-stand or casual relationship. To be sure, I am definitely not perfect. No one is and I'm not looking for that in a man. I am looking for a man who wants a monogamous relationship, a friend, and a partner. I adore dancing and my heart's desire is to find a man who will foxtrot with me around the world. If you are a man who has a zeal for life and is interested in someone to share it, then we have something in common.

NOTE: As I said I am not into games, so I feel I owe an explanation. I have listed my status as divorced. I am divorced from my ex in all ways except for that little piece of paper. We have had the court hearing and all I am doing is waiting for the mail. If that is a problem for you, so be it.

I would love to take a salsa lesson or go out to eat in formal attire then go bowling (did that once in Las Vegas and it was a hoot). How about we go horseback riding or go for a ride on a motorcycle? We can always take a midnight swim and enjoy a moonlight walk on the beach. If we are really adventurous, how about para-sailing or taking a parachuting lesson. Or we can have a quiet cup of coffee, talk, and learn what we have in common.
