Date women from United States / Alabama / Mentone, 27 year old

Date someone special from Mentone, United States. Update: June 5, 2012: I'm headed to camp for almost the whole summer! I'll have sporadic internet access only, so I won't be on here so often- but send me a message anyway, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
In all honesty- I'm making a profile for myself because I was afraid either my best friend or my sister would make one for me!
I'm just a straightforward, what you see is what you get kind of girl. I'm honest, but maybe not to a fault. I'm the oldest of 4 kids, and my sibs would probably say I'm a bit bossy, but hopefully only when necessary. I like to laugh, but not so much at movies as at random funnies that happen in real life. I am a Christ-follower, but not always a very good one.
I'm an RN who works part time in a hospital setting most of the year, but in the summer I'm Camp Nurse Extraordinaire at a girls camp. I recently adopted 3 puppies, bringing my dog total to 5, which makes me feel a little like a hoarder... :-D I love to travel; last year I went on a 2 week road trip and flew across the Atlantic for the first time! I've recently started running, albeit slowly, but I enjoy it- and I'm training to run a half-marathon in May!
I would love to meet you! If, that is, you're a nice, respectable guy who shares my faith, who is honest and trustworthy, who appreciates his family as much as I appreciate mine, who enjoys not only going & doing new things, but also just hanging out by a fire or on the couch watching a movie. More than that, though, you'll have to be man enough to be okay with me *not* being a weak, delicate flower; I'm a strong, capable girl who wants to be appreciated for being who she is. If that sounds like a job description you can handle, let's talk!
