Did you edit your profile and put in Florida, Laura?
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Our wings are not tired.
I had in the past, but for some reason my location had my name there. Huh, fixed.

And she's gone from the middle of the Pacific, leaving Australia and Thailand just a little bit lonelier.
So many people there I don't know.
We should have a get-on-the-map-and-say-hello-day thread thingie. Just to see how many of our 2163 current registered users stop by in a given week or month.
Let me check and see how many locations we have on the map. 256. I figure we have about 100 posters, 200 readers in a week, but those are off the top of my head numbers.

Okay. I'm going to make an official proposal.
I want to make a month-long thread to encourage people to delurk, even if it's only the once, and to encourage people to put their locations in their profiles so that our map is nice and peopled. Just to get people to raise their hands.
Can I get official seconds?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Seconded.
Though I would like us to make it clear that people shouldn't be pressured to put in their locations, and that they can be as general as they're comfortable with.
Which I know we will.
