In response to:
Abra,
Okay, Okay, I will be more specific.
Not a party animal at all. But don't sit in front of the Tube all day either. I love the simple things in life the most. Sitting by the ocean and watching the waves roll in. Take the time to smell a flower once in a while. Might even stop the car and get out to look at a beautiful rainbow.
Was married to a man that felt "living life to the fullest" was being in front of the TV with the remote in one hand and a sandwich in the other. Just want someone that will at least take a walk with me.
Have a great day and thanks for the comments.
Ok, that makes sense. I don't watch TV at all. I mean, I have a TV but I don't have cable or antenna. I only use it to watch selected videos. Usually, documentaries, human interest stories and other good movies. But it's definitely very selective and not all the time.
I'm totally the kind of man who would stop to appreciate a rainbow. I don't like running around all the time, but when I do go, look out! I live in a rural area, so going out for supplies means a 'trip'. I usually hit a lot of different places when I make that trip, which may include spontaneous stops at interesting places along the way as well as eating out.
To me that's not "partying" but it's very enjoyable none-the-less.
I like to spend most of my time at home, but doing constructive projects. NOT sitting on the couch. I'm definitely NOT a couch potato. I love working in the garden, the woodshop, the lawn, the house, you name it, I'm a workaholic and I love to accomplish things. It feels so much better than having just partied to wake up the next day with a hangover or with a big tummy from all the cheese curls I had the night before.
Actually I don't drink anyway. I mean, I can enjoy a beer or wine with a meal, but I don't like to drink alcohol to be "sociable". I'd rather get the family together and play music sitting around the fire. That kind of "party" would be acceptable.
I also enjoy motorcycle trips, overnight camping (not into hunting or fishing though, I'd rather just take a camera), sailing, horseback riding, and other things like that. But I'd only want to do these things like maybe once a week, not every frigg'in night! And maybe not even every week. I'm very much into gardening and other projects that usually end up being more important. But we can always take that hour long bike ride as a break.
I just don't want a woman who totally baulks when I want to do constructive projects at home instead of playing at non-productive things all the time. I want a little workaholic like myself. Not a playaholic!
