Date men and women from United States / Alabama / Irvington, 69 year old

Date men and women from Irvington, United States. I called a friend and asked her to describe me...she laughed! Not to be deterred, I pressed the issue. These are the words she chose: intelligent, direct, funny, well-rounded personality, zany and nature and animal lover. Well, who would want to argue with that?
I try each day not to take myself too seriously and to laugh at myself when I do.
I enjoy people, and enjoy doing a variety of things with people. Since I have lived alone, however, I value my solo time too, and think that each one of us needs space. I would like to find a man who would be my friend, someone that I could laugh with. It would be nice to find someone who shared some of my interests and would have some interests that he could share with me. I am pretty flexible. I like doing home projects and have always wanted to learn simple carpentry skills.
Oh, this part of this application is getting on my last flexible nerve, so if you are interested, let's talk or meet and see what happens.
