****PLEASE NOTE: I will not accept incoming ims from ANYONE that hasn't messaged me before--I don't want to waste either your time or mine.****

I am very easygoing but I have a tendency to feed off the energy of those I am with. I LOVE LOVE LOVE to travel, try new things, and have as many adventures as possible. I am usually up for anything...from white water rafting, hiking, museums, theatre, a cozy dive bar with friends, or sometimes just cuddling on the couch with a good movie. I also like learning new things--so i read voraciously and love deep discussions with controversial topics. I have a strong appreciation for the arts. I run when I get the chance(right now about 20-25 miles a week) and I enjoy eating organic/natural foods. My toddler son is my pride and joy and I love being a mom and hope to have more in the future. I am a very motivated, independent person and I have my own house. I work for the government and I am currently working on my Masters in Social Work because I get great satisfaction from helping others. I appreciate people that don't dwell on their problems, but try to find the positive in every situation. Attitude is everything!

I am looking for someone who is open-minded, intelligent, sensitive, strong, secure, trustworthy, has a sense of humor, active, playful, supportive, has strong beliefs but isn't afraid to test them, and driven. Also, MUST not be right-wing, conservative, narrow-minded, angry, chronically depressed, needy or racist.

I consider myself a "lady" so although I am by no means prude, if you are just looking to "hook up"--I am not your girl.

Something simple---meet for drinks, coffee or lunch? 2nd date we can branch out--im up for anything!
