In Her Own Words
About her
Hmm. Here goes...
This glorious job has had me for a good twenty-odd years now and I have been privileged? sidetracked perhaps? enough to not have had to put down roots (2017 edit : I am now based in muggy, tropical southeast Asia, and occasionally find myself wishing for mosquito -free bracing cold days!)
I am fluent in Franglais - mistakenly, I'm told ; which inevitably gets me lost in Paris.
My taste in music? All over the map, to say the least : 60's doowops (they make me smile), obscure one-hit wonders (just because), a smidgen of country (blame it on the shirtless Mr. Urban), cello concertos, opera arias... but If you think Ella, ole blue eyes & Mozart are true geniuses, we're off to a promising start.
I'm relatively self-sufficient, screw-top jars are not a thing to be feared, although I could still use the occasional hand with "guy stuff".
Whipping up a complete meal? Still a work in progress (2017 edit : the repertoire grows ; death by starvation it will not be!
You can occasionally catch me warbling away behind the wheel ; I've been known to attempt Beethoven's Ninth in German, or Hey Jude (both equally rousing, I say)
I enjoy football - we're talking the Yankee variety, mind you... the 'offside rule' in soccer is quite beyond me
I love... discovering my inner street-salsera ; finger-thin cucumber sandwiches ; Wodehouse ; that indefinable scent - acid rain? ozone? - after a thunderstorm ; cats ; BOXES!
If you've no objections to :
Space 1999 re-runs (and anything sci-fi)...
Still here?!!
...freshly laundered, high threadcount cotton sheets
caffeine fixes and/or ozzy plonk
reverse parking
lists
At Last sung by Etta James....
write me - I miss the good old days of real letters...
About her ideal match
Do you see yourself in the role of a partner? loyal friend? Significant Other? jigsaw puzzle piece that fits just so?
You don't mind that I am wordy for the sake of it, and that god invented laundries for a reason
You'd rather be on your own than in the wrong relationship
You've lived. And how you've learned.
You may, or may not, have mini-you's, but you're kind to kids, moggies and strays.
You've got baggage and it's well-packed
You have good friends, new friends and old friends
It would be even lovelier if you were ....
Taller
Humorous
Patient [although forbearance might work better in the face of this serial procrastinator!)
Faithful
A pair of feet (rather than two lefties) would be nice, she adds, wistfully...
An occasional people-person
Non-dope smoker
Passionate
Honest
Fair
Intelligent (rocket scientists with detailed knowledge of warp speed are welcome too)
At home living out of a Samsonite
A bit of a reader
Receptive to the occasional 'Essex Girl' streak
Loving
Self-aware
Happy, yet admit to missing someone too
Have a passport ....
Come say hello.
I may also have sneaked a peek at you, simply because your words had somewhat of a pull .....
