Prairie Fire museum nerd wants intellectual match

The Nelson-Atkins is my favorite place in the entire city and the shuttlecocks on the lawn make me unreasonably happy. I'm forty, professor of history at UMKC, and I can talk about the Civil War's impact on Missouri for longer than you'd like. I'm looking for someone who finds intelligence attractive, who reads nonfiction for pleasure, and who won't glaze over when I get excited about a museum exhibit. I know I'm a lot. My friends say I intimidate men and I'm trying to see that as a filter rather than a flaw. Bring your curiosity and we'll be fine.
