Hello, thanks for reading.

I believe people come and go throughout our lives, therefore, not everyone can and will be my best friend. So, I try to enjoy moments as they happen, and for me, life is way more beautiful this way.

I've been around many different areas of the country and know many types of people. I'm not outwardly quirky, somewhat reserved, goofy, and easy to relax around. I have a very small family.

I sometimes go out for snacks and a drink and sometimes invite friends over. You might find me cooking all afternoon or taking a drive to see something new. I'm definitely going to be calling you to do something spontaneous and enjoyable.

I'm entirely thorough with important tasks. I tend to check and recheck. Actually, once in a while I feel like giving a shit is a disadvantage in life. =o)

I put my sincere people person to work as often as I have the energy for. I connect well with warm-hearted, deep souls that carry a responsibility to do right by others.

Things I pay close attention to
- Reading people: facial expressions, body language, intentions.
- Details within stories
- The weather, I guess you'd call it an interest?
- Driving
- Beautiful people

People enjoy being around my smile. It's come up several times in my life. =o) I'm grateful for that.

Things I appreciate in a person.
Play and work hard. Get dirty.
Tell the truth, ill find out anyway
Don't keep a sloppy body for more than a few months.
Floss your teeth
Eat healthier than fast food.
Share a love of food and cooking for others
Appreciate veterans
Pay your own way
Stand up for yourself
Be kind
Religion doesn't alter your personal schedule

You keep it real

Public service was important to me for a long time. Now I understand the value of doing what makes me happy. I make sure I enjoy the little things and if it stresses me out more than I like, or if my heart isn't into it....I put it down and walk away.

What are you doing with your time?

Taking care of others, cooking, writing, shooting, driving, staying calm, companionship, connecting with others, hugging (fact), day dreaming, describing food, problem solving, thinking ahead then procrastinating because something else more interesting came up.

Kind eyes, warm smile. Genuine, confident, courteous.

Chapstick, sunglasses,

I haven't been without a cellphone for several years now so I wonder about that.

Several good slices of pizza.

Reflecting on my thoughts and interactions
Daydreaming about being a kid again
Food cravings, cravings in general
What I would do with a bunch of free money
What rice crispies are really chatting about....no but I do think about how the universe is tugging on me. I am learning how to tune in.
What my body wants

I'd stay home as quickly as Id go out.

A good time out for me could be an outdoor fire pit and beers.
A good time out for me could be something in the city.
A good time could be home in the kitchen with my new squeeze.

I sometimes wake up in the night craving candy or chocolate. I have a sweet tooth that goes into remission but I'm a total fat kid sometimes. I'm the guy that's gonna eat all the cookies and then have ice cream and chocolate.

You want to go hiking like as soon as it gets warm out!
You appreciate genuine people
Have that little something sexy about you
Like to ponder the world
Enjoy companionship
You make really good pancakes
Don't like to trample on anything.

I'm looking for someone who wants to build a friendship so we can make life more enjoyable with things like food, outdoors, companionship, romance, conversation and knowing that someone has your back when you need it.
