| What do you think would make for a good match? Or a date? Posted: 4/14/2008 9:29:38 AM | Just finished a(nother) rewrite. oSeeking feedback-- Thanks!
Msg needs 200 letters, so here's a funny sentiment (response to secret single behavior I'd have to give up if I found a special other): It would probably end my organization method of punctuated randomness. | |

| What do you think would make for a good match? Or a date? Posted: 4/14/2008 9:16:43 PM | Just noticed no one else has responded to your request, so I'll give it a shot.
Pics: Very pretty woman. You remind me of the actress who plays the heroine's mother in the series "Dead Like Me." Very sort of cool and elegant-looking.
Your "about me" is well written and thorough. It's clear you have a fine mind and a good education going for you. I have no idea what your profession entails but it sounds complex.
My only thought is your profile seems a little *too* thorough. As though perhaps you have answered every question upfront. You even cover saying "I love you" and your thoughts on intimacy. Might be a little heavy for a "dating" profile.
Other than that, I can't imagine why you're not deluged with daily emails from men promising undying love and affection. Maybe you are. | |

| What do you think would make for a good match? Or a date? Posted: 4/14/2008 10:17:28 PM | Wow, you have just taken me back to my childhood...'Little House on the Prairie' - you remind me of Caroline, the mother - so classy and ladylike.
Anyhow, enough of that. If you are a Tax Inspector, better to just say now.
Great list of interests! I have visions of you yodelling graciously over the Alps, with some guy chasing after you singing 'Ring of Fire', with the intention of gaining a little 'exertion' in maybe...um, trying for children.
You should be clearer about wanting children...I'm just saying.
Your last paragraph is very 'deep'; there's enough legato but no crescendo. | |

| What do you think would make for a good match? Or a date? Posted: 4/14/2008 10:40:14 PM | Iditerod--how'd you do that?! Yodeling over the Alps...is EXACTLY what I did for 2 years--and brought it all back home with me to Seattle, where I sang and yodeled and danced for a decade. Guess I did this to bide my time until I found my mate. As for trying for children--well, I'm very good at trying but child rearing would take an act of God, a la blessings He gave Abraham and Sarah-- looking for a man who'd sing Glocamora and put down roots with me before chasing me over hill and dale--exertion is divine sport! Though a comfy nest to come home to and share is important, too--the rest after the quest seems to be the greater purpose. | |

| What do you think would make for a good match? Or a date? Posted: 4/14/2008 10:51:58 PM | Shirley, Thank you much for very kind and positive words! But I'm not inundated with much in the way of dating. A typical email is this: ...if you want "friends first"...don't respond ...Take care...
...so "dating" um...this "dating" site is starting to feel like an interview I went on when I was about 25. It was an escort service. And "dating" meant...something else.
Gads, I'm the one who pulls guys to the dance floor, drives them to the ski lift, turns the soil in their garden in the spring. What is the secret of reciprocation? | |

Anyhow great profile and brilliant sense of humour, it will definitely weed out the undesirables...hope you find your Don Giovanni. | |

Stevenson--and there IS a resemblance. Using your feedback as a baseline, because I have had so few "hits," I rewrote the profile to something less thorough. Is this better? | |
