How many toads does one have to kiss? Now granted, there have been many cute and charming toads but, nonetheless, still toads.

With being in my 40's has come self-confidence, authenticity, passion, and an understanding of where it is I am, where I want to be and who I want to go there with. My view of on-line dating is you never know who may come across your screen ... and I can meet a weirdo just as easily in line at the grocery store, haha.

Born and raised in Michigan ... a what-you-see-is-what-you-get kinda girl. In L.A. since January 1990. I enjoy the farmers market; amusement parks; playing Scrabble with a challenging partner; going to upscale restaurants as well as dive bars; comedy clubs; concerts; professional sporting events; the driving range; and pilates. I also like relaxing at home, reading or watching T.V.

On the outside I am totally a girly girl ... but being a Michigan girl I grew up riding minibikes, snowmobiles, cross country skiing, playing on my grandmother's farm, climbing trees and riding three wheelers. It is relatively easy to make me happy: little unexpected, inexpensive "just because" gestures will instantly put a smile on my face!

I am looking for an intelligent, motivated, funny, thoughtful and well-groomed man who enjoys exploring and experiencing new places. Looks-wise, I do not have a "type" ... it's just that feeling you get when that unexplainable something catches your attention.

First Meeting: Typically a quick meeting to see if there is any in-person chemistry.
