Gotta have fun right?

I'm not really sure if you really need a "buddy"

Seriously everyone on here could be your buddy!

I think tho that if you make a post looking for a buddy then I'm sure you'll get one (or more) very quickly.

I've seen posts where it asks for "looking for a buddy that is having surgery ____"

(For ex: same day as you)

Or

"Looking for a buddy that is also having surgery at such and such hospital"

Good luck!

Oh and keep fiddle farting around the forums!!!
