Lavendergirl, 62

I'm funny, intelligent, educated, original, progressive, laid back and supportive. I get along with all people in all situations, really just your average girl. Nothing fancy or high maintenance here. I don't mind getting dirty and I'm not afraid of bugs.

Malls and bars aren't my thing. I love playing cards, shooting pool, bowling and darts. I have a whole closet full of board games and no one to play with!

I am all about animals. They are my life and my work. I have lots of pets and I do rescue work.

I strive for a stress-free life and there's no place like home! I like decorating and gardening. I can be quiet, but I'm never shy. I prefer intellectual stimulation to physical activity.

I LOVE good TV, movies (action, crime, horror, sci fi, mysteries, comedy - no chick flicks), going for walks, and anything to do with water (especially swimming and water parks.) I love dining out and road trips.

I'm passionate about Star Trek and think DS9 was, without question, the best of the series. I'm a huge fan of Farscape and the new Battlestar Gallactica. I'm also a big fan of fantasy, such as Harry Potter and LOTR.

I like intelligent debate and you don't have to agree with me. I can talk about nearly anything except cars and sports. I am progressively political.

I'm marriage-minded. I'm looking for the right guy, not just any guy. Are you smart, funny, open-minded and laid back? Do you accept people for who they are and love animals?

No hunters, bigots, trill seekers or rage-aholics, please.
