Music is my first love. Visual art is my second. A perfect afternoon might be spent staring at clouds or treetops or staring into space. If this interests you then good. I am socially awkward and I'm finally learning to enjoy that about myself. I spend most of my free time creating music, going on walks, hikes, visiting with friends, playing in my band, and sometimes drawing or painting. I am a cook in a local restaurant, but that is small potatoes.... I am also co-owner of a local recording studio. Beyond having a place to live, food to eat, and frequent vacations, I could care less about money. I do not spend my time thinking about or obsessing about money. I seem to always have everything I need, I travel frequently, and have plenty of time to do the things I love to do . I am not someone who believes that a persons success can be quantified in dollars. If you meditate and focus on "manifesting abundance" meaning a huge house, new car etc, then we might not gel so well. I'm not a political person either but if you feel you need to categorize my leanings they would probably be far left and in accordance with much of the LGBT community. So far this probably says little about me, but after all this is only an online virtual community so I strongly doubt we would have much of anything resembling a real idea of who we are until we actually meet. Hmm, so what else. I do meditate, though not as often as I'd like. I not only hug trees but I also talk to them and save pieces of bark from ones I really hit it off with. If you feel compelled to label me as a hippie because of this, well that is lame, in fact I would prefer to forgo the labeling entirely if we could but just for fun you could call me a: dorkish, post-punkish, hippie-ish, hipster-ish, wannabe-ish mystical freak. Thats all for now. Stay tuned for more

Dumb stuff to write on my OkCupid profile

Ok cupid is kinda Ok stupid

You are someone who transcends the popular conventional persona of cool cynical snarky facetious wit and instead are not afraid to express the awe & amazement you feel in the vast subtle beauty of life in all things great and small.

You dont think true masculinity is expressed by being musclebound, wearing cologne and hanging out at maloney's with your bro's.

You're silly, weird and baffled by the passage of time and the age you've reached.
