What a nice evening. Made up for work completely. Finally met AutumnGray, got to congratulate Riff/DJRetcon on his new job, even though it may be two offers, talked with revseandoe, Jason and Gary when they arrived, Sara and Chris, and later in the evening did a little talking and a little flirting with Sheannine. Spent most of the evening in one of a few different conversations. So it's taken five or six years of being in the Seattle area to get social. I'm now at a place where i think i can do a reasonably credible job at it.

<<I don't think you'd have anything to worry about, at least in the Seattle community- you're *cute.*>>

Thanks. I know I don't have many "goth" pictures on there. I don't really dress that way often. I have nowhere to go (as we've already established).

<< After all, we're the people who are usually too smart and inquisitive for our own good, and it'd follow logically that our tastes and interests are similarly varied.>>

^_^ Yeah. Unfortunately, I am usually very curious. Although not curious enough to do something about my curiosity. Just dream and think about it until I eventually find out. If that made any sense. :)

<<Wear what you want among 'family.'>>

*sniffles and wipes tear*

<< but you're not too likely to find many in the community who are going to be rude enough to comment negatively- after all, we're the people that *they* (the so-called 'normal' people) don't understand>>

See, I was hoping this. And I totally understand this. But, there's always the asshole, you know? I mean.. I guess as far as I know, there's an asshole in every group. Someone who will always go above and beyond to make your life a living hell.

<< and accordingly most of us have been abused by mundane, small-minded people before.>>

My entire life from when I first started going to school to now and most likely beyond. Even by my parents. My parents have done and said some really really rotten things to me for no reason. Sadly, my home life isn't the best.

<<If i were you, i'd wear the boots. They're something that's going to make you distinctive, and may attract people to you>>

^_~ Yeeeah! You bet it is. ;o Did I just say that? I mean, this is all hoping, anyway. ;)

<<(see the thread on the seagoth boards under General Discussion about elitism for some really valuable insight for outsiders).>>

Oki. Yeah, I went there and I wasn't sure which topic to click. But, meanwhile, I can't subscribe to the ezboards b/c it doesn't support my webtv. And as far as I see, there is no midwest or michigan goth board! lol.

<<Hopefully you'll find a Detroit equivalent, and the community there will be as good as the one here.>>

Awwh! Thank you! You're so nice.. !

Don't know if you've checked any of these, but they might be worth a peek if you haven't already:

It's a shame you can't get to ezboard. :-(

More in response shortly.

Here's the direct link to the discussion threat i'd mentioned earlier. It's probably worth reading through all of it, just for the varying perspectives, if nothing else.

DOH!

Would help if i'd have included the link, wouldn't it?
