I guess you might want to know a bit about me. I am a 50-something male who has been married, is no longer, and who is building a modest, if boring life for myself. I am educated and well-read, but I know book smarts are only a small part of the game. I am an adult Catholic convert, but not yet a saint.

I have had mixed luck with roommates, so I am going to be straight forward in the things I cannot tolerate. I cannot abide by smoke or vaping. I hate the smell of cannabis, and do not want it in my home. Period. I have a couple of food smells that really irk me. Sardines and other pungent fish linger for some time and are icky. Sauerkraut and kimchee are not welcome, so if you need to eat them, it’s best you eat that cuisine elsewhere. Curry while enjoyable, is not likeable enough for me to want to live in a home that reeks of it all the time like some cheap curry joint in Manchester, England. So if you eat a lot of curry, this ain’t the right place for you.

I am a big believer in temperance. If a typical night for you is to put down six cans of beer, a few shots, or a couple of bottles of wine, look elsewhere for a place to live. If you like to get wrecked on the weekends or get stoned stupid on ingestibles, keep looking chum. I’ve lived with alcoholics in the past and I’ve decided to draw a line.
