I'm just gonna try this. I've put up a few CL ads, with varying responses, but nothing lasting. We shall see what kind of riff-raff this cat will drag in... :)



Here's what I want:

I want a relationship. I'm not saying I'm rushing to the altar, I'm not. I've made it 28 years without being anyone's Mrs., and I'm not on a deadline here, but I want someone who is capable and willing to call me his girlfriend, at least eventually after we've been dating a few months.



I want someone who is extremely intelligent, slightly nerdy/dorky (I hear there's some real debate about those terms amongst the truly nerdy/dorky, but I couldn't care less), and cute. I'm talking genuinely cute, good looking, great smile, thin-to-fit nice body. I think Adrien Brody's pretty hot if that tells you anything. I also want someone who is extremely creative, yet ambitous. Artist types who are successful rock!



I can match all of these: I'm extremely intelligent, slightly dorky, very cute, fit body (more curvy than thin, but NOT fat), blonde, blue-eyed, tall, very creative, ambitious, and relatively successful.



Educated would be great, but sheer intelligence overshadows education any day.



Wishlist.. Taller than 5'10?? Please? Not b/c short men are any less attractive, but because I have a closet full of heels, and we all know Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise didn't last...



If you want to send me hate mail right now, or to tell me off, or tell me I'm unrealistic, materialistic, or even ballistic, please stop yourself before your self-righteous behavior irritates me and wastes your precious soap-box time.



If you want to send me a picture of your penis, consider that I sometimes open email at work and I work with children. You don't want to be a pedophile, do you?



Here's to eternal optimism.
