Date women from United States / California / Huntington Park, 36 year old

Date a woman from United States. Hi There,
Okay, here goes a very enthusiastic outlook on dating and meeting that special someone. I am a hopeless romantic...stop reading if you are not. Also, stop reading if you are not digging tattoos, or if a woman with a child is not for you.
Okay, let me continue, don't want to waste people's time. :) I love to do the simple things that will make me say "aahhh, he is so sweet/cute/funny!!" Simple things like holding hands late at night (day, or evening too), going for a movie even if it is the last show of the night. Spur of the moment things...apple pie and ice cream late at night, hike first thing in the morning, a show somewhere in the city. Disclaimer: I do enjoy dancing, but usually find that guys dont. Do not despair, i have 4 sisters and am set for a girl's night out. If you want to tag along, even better. :)
I am looking for a guy that is looking for something serious. I am not here to date and date and date in hopes of finding the next best thing. If i find the one that clicks (and its mutual)....yay! hunting days are over, and if it turns to something....even better!! Meeting new people is a-okay, but know that I am avoiding serial daters.
I can't start a list of things that i am looking for in a man. The basics should be there: job/career, non smoker, smart, funny, and caring. All the extra bonuses will be gladly accepted. I can create a checklist of things, but you know, in the end the most unexpected person is the one we fall for.
;)
