Hey! Name's Adam. I'm lookin' to see if I can find a friend or two here.

I've had 3 best friends so far in life. The first was my HS buddy Tom. You know how that sometimes goes. Life happened. Girlfriends, jobs, families and all that. We started hanging out less and less prioritizing other parts of our lives, but anytime I've asked for his help over the years the man turned up and worked hard. And no matter how long it's been it's just right back to the same old routine of jokes and goofin' off.

The second was also a HS buddy who just never left me alone... and I was perfectly fine with that. After ten long years I asked her if she'd spend the rest of her life with me and I'm happy to say that she's still here 8 years later. We practice polyamory together and are quite enmeshed in each others lives. Obviously, this will limit my availability a bit.

The third was a guy that I was introduced to by another buddy when he took me to buy pot off of him. When we walked in he had a blunt in his ear and was strumming on his guitar. I said: "Nice guitar". He didn't say anything or stop playing, just nodded in the direction of the couch to which another guitar was leaning. I picked it up, got my bearings about me, and started jammin'. We fell so naturally into a groove and took turns being the lead or rhythm. Little did I know that that would be the beginning to a beautiful friendship. To be honest, it was tough being his friend sometimes. Sometimes he got into a bad mood and would be insufferable. We'd still hang out. We just wouldn't talk to each other. It was weird. Most of the time dude was based af. Just livin' life and enjoying it. One day about 4 years in he tells me that he's dying from a liver disease. He'd known since before we even met and just never said anything. He died a month later. Fuck. That explains so much.

Anyway, one move and one covid later this introverted person finds himself lacking friends to hang out with irl (short a 3000 mile round trip) and he would like to change that fact.

Self-taught guitarist. I play simply because I like to play which ends up being damn-near every day. My overall skill level and habits may reflect that. That said, I've been playing for about 18 years. Whatever bad habits I have are surely ingrained by now. Lol. I'm probably better than I think I am and worse than you think I should be after 18 years. Classic rock is probably the genre I gravitate towards the most, but good vibrations transcend genres.

Self-taught gamer. Lol. Been playing for 30 years. I'm still terrible, but I enjoy games like Rocket League, League of Legends, RDR2, The Last of Us, Battlefield (4, 5, 1, 2042).

Nature enthusiast! Road trip to some place in the mountains or on the beach and have a picnic. Hiking (I'm fat, but working on it). Camping. Let's do it. I love cooking on an open fire with a cast iron skillet. Just uh. If you know you know.

420: I've uh, "self-medicated" using cannabis for a long time even when and where it was illegal. I do not drink alcohol.

Hippie. 'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner I play my music in the sun

I'm a joker, I'm a smoker, I'm a midnight toker I sure don't want to hurt no one

Peace and love y'all. Peace and love. For real, I wish there were more compassion and understanding in this world. I believe that a person is the culmination of all prior experiences. You and I. Our lives. No matter how similar they may seem on the surface they are completely different experiences. As a result we may come to completely different conclusions. The important thing is communication and sharing that experiential knowledge. I take this to heart and try to be mindful of this fact with every interaction.

Politics matter. Let's talk about them. I'm pretty liberal and totally support socialistic ideals. Ranked Choice Voting anybody? The thought of heavily taxing the rich and funding robust social help programs gives me the warm and fuzzies.

I'm a simple guy. I have things which I like, but I am not a materialist. I'm not particularly spiritual. I have no aspirations of becoming rich or forwarding my career beyond what I need to live somewhat comfortably. All I truly want out of life is happiness and good company. That's where you readers come in. Please, don't hesitate to make the connection.

Thanks for reading. Sorry for the wall of text. I hope to hear from some of you. Have a wonderful day!
