Two posts for the price of one!

I'm recycling a response I gave to AimeeAnne here. The prompt was the question "What are the 5 things most important in a woman to you?" My answer is reproduced below.

1. She should be someone who chases the horizon. Not in the sense of being "a dreamer" or impractical, but someone who's always pushing to become more than they already are. Of a piece with this, she should be resilient, determined, not easily hurt or dissuaded. This pretty much encompasses a lot of what comes next.

2. She should be highly intelligent, instinctively curious, eager to study new ideas and assimilate new information.

3. She should be reasonably athletic. I use the term "athletic" loosely here, mostly to mean someone capable of enjoying physical exertion, in good condition. I'm certainly not much in the hand-eye co-ordination or team sports department, but I engage in fairly high-intensity physical activity on a regular basis (daily, when I can), usually running or martial arts.

4. She should have a good sense of humor. Dry irony is particularly sexy.

5. She should be reasonably attractive. If she fulfills number three, this probably wouldn't be much of a stretch.

Fine list. I'd say the same myself but with a guy in mind. Wait! I have one of those already who fits the bill just nicely.

RYC: My Boy Jack was a fascinating film. Hope you get the chance to watch it...really a heartbreaking look at the cost of war and the pain of loss, and a fascinating glimpse into Kipling's home life.

I think your list is by far better than the one I posted.

Trip ends end of June. Racing? What sort of race? *Gets crazed someone-brought-up-running-i-think look that generally makes those who aren't also runners change the subject* :D
