Date women from United States / California / Temple City, 55 year old

Date someone special from Temple City, United States. My friends would tell you I'm very attractive, intelligent and challenging at times. One of the most mysterious case I came across as a journalist quite a while ago was a mysterious death of a very intelligent man. It involves cross-cultural relationship and several very lucrative biotech patents and infidelity. The cause of death was never determined. ... Bonus if you can write this story.
ABOUT ME
The perpetual issue of that infamous half glass of water - why does it have to be "half full" or "half empty"? Can we take it as what it is - without opinion, illusion, or wishful thinking. Maybe our perpetual quest for the meaning of life make us complex and at times sad. (OK, just to test if you are still reading. Hope you are laughing now.).
NO, i'm not sentimental. I'm very playful, sometimes act like a clown for the friends around me when I put my mind to it, but don't think you would mind. I used to work in San Jose as journalist for a long time before returning to Asia in 1995. It was a boom time for telecom industry. I worked for a well known telecom companies there as executive at a time female executives were rare. (Almost became a geek.) Returned to US in 2002, only to Southern Cal. At the moment I've taken up a new job in a small company.
ENOUGH CV. If you know the job of a strategist you know a small part about me. Best feature? ...ummm, can't tell you here. Things I can't tell on the first date? ....DEFINITELY cant' tell you here. BTW, taught "Simultaneous Interpretation" - much more difficult than taking ballet - in a very prestigious university in Asia during my stay there. Also did couple sessions for the President of the country amid a missile crises. Ask me if you want to know what this is.
(Should STOP BLUSHING!)
If I blush and want to run away when you meet me, you already know I like you more than I should. I don't take picture much of myself since I don't believe a 2-dimensional image would reflect the complex appearance of a natural person, but I'm very willing to be conventional this time.
There's no particular "kind" of people I'm looking for. It's difficult to ask too much from anybody, so it'd be good to start from just being friends and see what happens. I don't believe any one would fall into a particular type of personality or traits, so we can all just be our own natural selves. If I blush when we meet, you know I already like you too much.
