Hello, hello.

[itsedward]

Name: Edward


Age:51


I mostly post about: Work and daily musings. My relationship with my partner.  I'll post about everything and anything under the moon. I don't want to restrict myself, as I believe this kind of outlet will let me vent and rant. I had an LJ (and I still do technically) and I held that closely. Being without any friends, or family, this could help me in many ways. Sorry if it's TMI.


My hobbies are: Bicycles, my fascination with hand tools, and all things technical/mechanical. I'm a nerd at heart. Sorry it's in my blood to tinker and fix things. I also take a lot of pictures that never make it off my phone. Perhaps this is the place to post them now. 


My fandoms are: The Office and The Office: Superfan episodes.


I'm looking to meet people who: Are mature and understanding. Who won't judge me, as I won't judge you. Progressive in thinking and welcoming of others. 

My posting schedule tends to be: Hopefully weekly. It wouldn't be surprising if I can post once every two weeks. My entries can be long winded.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: I'm Asian (not that it matters), but I've encountered my fair share of racism. I cannot tolerate racists, bigots and people who want to suppress others. I can't tolerate right wing nutjobs. 


Before adding me, you should know: I'm a leftist, a parent, and I'm pretty blunt and direct when I voice myself. I may post really stupid photos of encounters in my everyday life, but it's a trait of being on Instagram. It's also the only social platform I still have besides LJ. Be kind to one another, and please be kind to me.

Hi there! Happy to connect if interested - my public posting is sporadic but i'm trying to get better about it. i journal compulsively but most of what i write is too personal to share with more than a very few highly trusted folks (4 people have access to my entries currently i think). i'd love to have more connections, and am especially interested in past LJers closer to my age (I'm about to turn 49) :)

[itsedward]

Hi! Yes, totally interested. It's really difficult to find other Gen Xers around. I'm glad to meet you!!

Hello there!
My name is Tina, I turn 36 this year (hopefully not too young for you?) and live in Germany.
I am also a leftist and love posting and looking at other people's photos, and I would consider myself a pretty kind person - or at least try my best ;)

Also, I don't mind long-winded entries as I can get pretty long-winded myself. In fact, I just came back from a longer hiatus so I am in the process of writing an update that's probably gonna be long ;)

Would you like to give it a try? I think my interests in my userinfo give a good impression of what I'm like but if you have any questions, just ask :)

[itsedward]

I'm totally down for more friends, especially other journals to read. It's kinda ironic, I've always wanted to visit Germany, and I have hopes that I can visit Germany soon. My employer may or may not send me to training in Munich this year, so we shall see. So very glad to meet you Tina!

[einhornmaedchen]

Great, I've added you back :) I am happy to meet you too :)
Munich is a beautiful city, I've visited there once a couple years ago. I hope you get to go there!

[itsedward]

Hello Anne! It's nice to meet you.

[einhornmaedchen]

Hallo Anne! Mir geht es gut, und dir?
Das ist ja cool, dass du Deutsche und Kanadierin gleichzeitig bist - ich finde Kanada ein sehr schönes und interessantes Land :)

Ich wünsche dir noch einen schönen Tag
Tina

Hey, I'd love to be friends. I just made a post myself if you'd like to check it out and see if that works for you!

[springheel_jack]

Sure

[lilla_vey]

Hi, I will add you, if that’s OK.
Like you, I’ve just started journaling here and would like to build a diverse circle of friends.

I am GenX 48 years old, female, living in the UK.

[itsedward]

Yes to GenX. We freaking rule. I keep making a mistake to separate the X. But yes, totally ok. I'm adding now too.

[cdayzee]

Hello!

GenX ftw! lol I have 3 adult children & 5 grandkids. I mainly rant about my life lol. Currently, it's been pretty health-centric.

I also formerly journaled on LJ for many years.

Would love to get to know you! Add?

[itsedward]

Of course! I'm seeing a lot of us LJers here. New friends are always welcomed!

[flirtable]

Hi! Seens like we have a bit in common. May I add you?
