I'd like to meet:
Someone who is adventurous and creative. This doesn't mean you need to be a skydiving performance artist. It just means that you need to know how to have a good time when it's there in front of you and know how to make a good time when it isn't.
---
Someone who can take me where I've never been.
---
Someone who can have fun doing silly things as well as deeper things. If you liked the film 'Ghandi' but can still check out what's new at Toys'R'Us, then you have the range I'm looking for.
---
Someone who will push me to be more than I am at all times and never rest on being 'good enough'
---
A fellow troublemaker
A hyperactive firebrand
A goddess in the rough
An insomniac
A Fury, Valkyrie, or Siren
Someone who catches my seemingly random headlines
