| About Me |
Very outgoing, socially and politically and religiously liberal, but in some ways conservative because I am Catholic. I love to go out and do interesting things, whether it's walking through a park, going skiing/swimming/hiking/ice skating, or doing something inside, such as seeing a live musical performance or a play, going to a museum (WARNING: I READ *ALL* OF THE SIGNS), or sitting in a coffee shop with a good latte and a book.
I am looking for someone who is certainly a lot more like me than different from me, in terms of religion, political . That being said, I do enjoy talking with people who are different, because that is interesting to me. I lived in England for two years, so I got to meet people from all over the world. I LOVED that! I love foreign languages; I speak French, Italian, and Spanish. I would love to learn Arabic next, because I love the Arabic script. I love Islamic art and architecture, and I would love to be able to read the inscriptions.
I am originally from Delaware, and have been going back home quite a bit lately. I love D.C., and if I could get a job there, I'd move in a heart beat. I have lived in St. Louis for 12 years now, and it has gotten old. The St. Louisans just can't handle me--because I am BLUNT and I CUT TO THE CHASE! I have a fabulous sarcastic sense of humor, and most of the folks out here really don't know what to do with me. They think I am rude and insensitive and lacking in tact. Yeah? Well, "Tact is for people who aren't witty enough to be sarcastic." Ha ha! Wish I could say I made that up, but I didn't. I saw it on a pin, and I bought it!! I want to wear it every day here, but since I am looking for a new job, I figure I better not.
My original career is in archaeology. I have my master's and my bachelor's in archaeology. But I did a career change to social work/employment counseling. I loved being an employment counselor and job developer--and it turns out I am REALLY GOOD at that! But I got burned out by social work--and I never intended to be a social worker. It is an honorable profession, but it is thankless. As much as you want to give of yourself, they'll take it from you, but then they'll kick you to the curb as soon as they are finished with you (I know from personal experience).
Anyway, I am currently looking for a new full-time job as either an archaeologist or an employment counselor/job developer. I have an interest in the medical field, so I think I would like to work in a hospital. I actually love being in hospitals, because a lot of really smart people work there, and there is a lot of fantastic stuff going on there. I also like the idea of working at a hospital or a university because of the diversity of the workforce. I am definitely not interested in surrounding myself with any one type of person--that includes people too much like me!
By the way, I'm certainly not perfect, but I definitely am "a catch." I say this because people have told me that I am looking for someone who is "perfect," when I am not perfect myself. That is because people misunderstand me.
Seeing as I know what I want, and I am not afraid to go for it, I get told very often that I am "too demanding" and "too picky." But when you know what you want, why apologize for that? If what I want isn't what you want, or what you are, I don't think either one of us needs to apologize. I think that just means that we say, "Nice to meet you, but we are not a match."
I would love to tell you how fabulous I am, but hopefully you'll get some idea after reading my profile, and after we e-mail/talk/meet in person.
Namaste,
Barbara
