Going to dive bars and listening to Blue grass bands (Dulonos anyone?) or Irish bands or any live music really, singing karaoke at the VFW, traveling, doing activities outdoors- swimming, canoeing, riding my little red bike, skiing, etc..., showing sheep, painting, drawing, reading, watching good romantic movies, drinking wine, eating new delicious foods, talking, and singing in my car. Oh, and of course John Cusack.
"Tell me, from a girl's point of view, what do you want from a guy?" "Well, when I first moved out here from Tucson, I wanted a guy with looks, security, caring. Someone with their own place. Someone who said 'bless you' or 'gesundheit' when I sneezed. Someone who liked the same things as me, but not exactly. And someone who loves me.""Tall order.""Yeah, I scaled it down a little.""What is it now?" "Someone who says 'gesundheit,' although I prefer 'bless you.' It's nicer."....Okay, so maybe I'd like to meet someone who loves the movie "Singles" as much as I do.

I have a weird thing for superheroes. Maybe it's the outfits. I secretly wish I had my own superhero costume. Then, I can order galactic pizza and when they come to my door in their capes, I will also be wearing a cape.
