I tend to be vivacious, bold, strong, quick, funny, open, and bright with a big heart.

I can also be very independent and aloof (and maybe stubborn)

, but it is never my intention. I have a very diverse sense of humor. My family, friends, and dog mean the world to me. For fun, please see my interests above, and know that I would much rather go to a concert or BBQ with friends than dress up for a limo ride and go dancing. I am a bit of a hippie at heart, although I wear too much black. I am aroused by an array of styles and types of people (I have dated my share of both computer geeks and musicians). I tend to like cute geeks. I am somewhat natural, yet somewhat girly, and NOT interested in brand names or being a follower. The perfect night to me is dinner and game night with friends, and so much laughter that tears stream down our faces, and someone pees their pants, and that is usually how it is.
Some wonderful qualities in men...FUNNY, smart, witty, attractive, honest, interesting, responsible, respectful, down-to-earth, outgoing, and charismatic. If you only have one picture, or if I somehow conclude that your pictures are really old, I will not respond (that's false advertising and nobody has time for that). Good luck to you on this site!
If meeting someone for the first time, coffee is fine. For a first real date, a simple dinner or drinks works well (but no place too loud so that you can talk and actually hear each other speak).
