age...is it just a number?

speaking of age, i just saw on my blogger profile here that i describe myself as being in my early thirties...according to my age-logic, i'm really in my mid-thirties at this point...

but that's beside the point. the reason for this post -- other than the fact that i haven't written in ages and that i may have a few new readers (km and js, greetings if you are out there!) -- is that i just had a 45 minute long conversation with a smart, interesting and tall gentleman named B. who is...50.

i've had my eye on his profile for a while. he appears to be attractive, active, liberal-minded, educated, and fun. enjoys music, plays music, loves animals, has a dog, enjoys travel, has travelled...

as always, it comes down to chemistry. i've been traveling quite a bit lately but once i return home later this week, i'm in SD for almost a month so at least i'll have a little time to meet this fellow. and we shall see. i've met people my age who feel old to me and then there are people like my dad who seem quite young, so who knows? my mind is open and my sense of optimism is returning (after a long time away) so i'll keep you posted...

p.s. Go Barack!
