Date men and women from United States / California / Sausalito, 56 year old

Date someone special from California, United States. White male. Charming, goofy writer-boy (published songwriter, a novelist and screenwriter), highly unconventional in a most subversive way. More stats: 5’8” 171 lbs., great butt, broad shoulders, bats left, throws right. All my own hair (SP) on top. Make a mean cobbler baked ziti. Excellent trivia partner. Will take you to quirky, out-of-the-way dive bars, introduce you to new cocktails, and even let you wear my coat if you get cold. Dogs (I love labs) absolutely love me. So do infants and little kids I don’t know why, maybe �cause I’ve had so many already…very divorced, very available. I brush my teeth. A lot. I adore intimacy, kissing, and physical contact. I wish I could go and fetch you a nice glass of wine or a cocktail while you browse…like a gallery opening, or a Harry Potter party…wouldn’t that be civilized? Yes. Then you could meander about at your leisure, sipping your drink as you took in all these ridiculously insane oversized canvasses of me rendered in pseudo Third World dictator fashion with curious titles such as “Whoops!” and “Wow!” and the very popular “boom-shacka-lacka-BOOM!” I am all about the mishpooka. Especially in the bedroom. There’s nothing hotter than a woman in the shivering, stiffening, toe-curling throes of La Petite Mort…crying out at the top of her lungs “OHHHH B*A*B*Y!”
Here are a few of my favorite things (in no particular orde, feel free to skim if you like):
Wonderwall, Lucian Freud, baseball games, my garden, anywhere in Italy, my city my home, cooking, laughing, public fornication in front of a peace officer…not!, making love in the morning with the window open so we can hear the birds chirping, reading voraciously, writing like nobody’s business, reading in bed, The King's Speech, Italian food, the English language, Tennessee Williams, David Lindley and his cool compadre Tommy Fitzgerro, Coco Chanel, Seinfeld, the sunrise, tantric/yoni massage, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, holding hands, more kissing, more laughing, figs, intelligent and inspiring women, Shania’s “In your eyes”, Brazenhead, Joe Capp, The Pretender, Phillip Roth, damn I love tennis and I could never beat bjk, King of the guitar, sweet Anne in Carroll Gardens, The Pierre and The Carlsyle, Balthazar in Soho, Tahiti Nui, my blackberry cobbler, women in hats, Cafe' Habana on Elizabeth and Linda, E-man, Wendell Berry, my three wondrous kids and my first who didn’t make it but still exists where it counts, Ulysses...the greatest book of all time, Gibson’s in Chicago, kissing is the new black, hints, Coco Chanel again, anywhere in Italy, Peter Lugar’s steakhouse in Brooklyn, PILOT P-700 PENS (0.7 black)…A MUST ALWAYS, the back of a woman's neck, blue water, 8 rue du Mont Cenis Paris-France, Dostoevsky, Parker Posey, faith, King Cuisine, the light of being, Hanalei Bay, PBS, Palace of Fine Arts, Dean DeLuca, Elaine’s, E-Man, Caveass, Laird, 38th and Madison, the late great Duva, Boulder, Co., phrases that find you, Cartell, the lovely Lena from London, Wendell Berry, Moleskine ruled notepads, NPR, Caveass, Billy DuSheki, Friday Harbor, the soul of a woman...applause! Ketel One gimlets straight up--occasionally, Conti’s pizza in Princeton, NJ, my songs, la Guria bakery, Delfina’s Pizzeria on 18th St., Johnny boy at the piano, the angel from Park high school in Baltimore, the old Neal, high thread count white shirts, all things Godzilla, being bombarded with kisses when I wake up, Laudee,
Curb Your Enthusiasm, the tooth ferry, purple green, humility.

Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I am an extrovert who is always enjoying life, but miss the contact with a significant other. I am self-sufficient so am not looking for someone to depend on for financial help or security but rather to share life's adventures. I have a lot to offer someone. I am a happy person with a great sense of humor and would love to laugh with someone and love someone for who they are.
I am attracted to outgoing men who are healthy and happy and enjoy an active life-style. I value a good communicator who is not afraid to call a woman and say "I just wanted to hear your voice..." A man who takes the initiative to plan and be romantic. A man who stays in touch.
I am looking for a strong man who believes in himself and is aware of how he moves through his life. Someone confident and true to himself and to me.
I have 2 grown sons with whom I am close and many friends. I enjoy staying active, traveling and experiencing new situations.
I run a Sports Medicine clinic in a hospital and feel at ease in most situations. My job allows me plenty of time off, so vacations and travel with someone special is a joy. Weekends playing golf, hiking, movies, plays, quick trips, etc. are fabulous. I keep telling myself it's time to write "that book" but only have a few pages so far. I figure I have at least two good books on tap...
Let me know if you want to have great conversations, fun, AND an affectionate and meaningful relationship. Then, I am your girl!
PS My pictures are all recent except the 2 from Italy. They are 4 years old and tell me it's time to go back!
