About Me
If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it is yours. If it doesn't, it never was. There is someone out there who set me free in 1993 and 2007. Last April or so, she pointed out that we need to break up again sometime in the twenty-teens. We need to be together before that ...
OK, ignore the silly humour. I've been fully "taken" since October or so of 2008. I'll continue to come to the brunches and occasional other events.
The rest of this entry is for "historical interest" only. Much of it doesn't apply to me in my current status.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Repeat: This profile may be sitting on a dating site, but I'm not looking|
|for a partner. I've got one. Thanks. |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PoF now insists that I must specify my "intent" before I can read my mail, and gives me a number of choices. None of them match my situation. I was here "looking" in 2006 to 2008, but since October of 2008 I'm just here to keep in touch with friends from that era. My intent is therefore to find a serious relationship. I didn't find one here, so I went back to an old girlfriend from before I met my late wife. I'm not in the dating market.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm a shy one, but willing to be drawn out. 2.5 years widowed after ten years. I come with baggage. I'm keeping my baggage, and I want to hear about your baggage, too. Someone in her thirties or forties with no baggage is stepping too lightly through life.
Looking for a "reader". If you don't think a bookcase belongs in a living room or have to stop to think to remember the last couple of books that you've read, then you're probably a mismatch.
I was looking for someone who is open to having kids. My late wife couldn't have kids after the first round of cancer. Now that I was looking again, I didn't think that I was ready yet to give up the dream. "Accroches-toi a ton rêve."
I play up to the Taurus stereotype. Blunt and direct. I take a head-on power-run at problems until they're either solved or lying in pieces. Even if I weren't an information person (thus offended by any untruths), I still wouldn't see the point of lying. Ask a question -- I'll answer. Approach TMI at your own risk.
I used to be a programmer on either antique mainframes or in SAP/ABAP. That resume grew stale while we were chasing my late wife's career all over the country, and I ended up with a blue-collar job for a year or two. I'm back at college rebooting the career.
I'll try to point you to my livejournal, where I'll expect you to wade through nerd jokes, political rants, and career angst. You're allowed to ignore it.
I'm quite shy. Any hints about stepping things up to a "next level" had to be delivered with a club. But that's cool. Friends are great, too, if you're not into wielding the club. Potential friends who aren't into "the kid thing" are also welcome to contact me for friendship.
Height is not an issue. I'm very tall, but I've dated someone under 5 feet, at one point in the deep past.
The name's a pun. Several layers. Taurus -- I don't really believe in horoscopes, but I play the bull stereotype to the fullest. Toroid -- Ich bin ein donut (a mistaken version of a historical quote. But you are what you eat.). Torrid -- well, we're all allowed one extravagant claim. (I was Hermit-G previously)
Preference is for someone who pushes brains (humour, discovery, wonder) in her profile over someone who pushes brawn (doing sports, dancing, etc). Geek shibboleths are ideal: Who really shot first? What happened to Inigo's father? What WAS the question? The enemy gate is down. War does not make one great. What do you get when you multiply six by nine. Taco.

First Date
Coffee, followed by a long walk. I like to talk, I like to listen. I'm not a dancer.
I like movies, but not for a first date. At a movie we shouldn't be talking, and first date is too early for cuddling in the dark, unless we meet a few hours earlier first, and you brought along the cluebat.
Doing something that takes little attention (mini-golf etc.) or watching something technical where we're allowed to talk about it (sports? I'm not a sports fiend, but I'll listen to you tell me which side of the puck goes down. Rodeo? Tell me how it's fair that a wagon driver wins or loses based on his outriders if those are assigned by the Stampede. Even watching a movie shoot or beavers building a dam (beavers go faster)).
(I've since been informed that outriders are hired by the team. :) At least I can claim it was next to "which side of the puck goes down" and claim it as a deliberate absurdity, can't I?)
