Hopefully. I've been dealing with Video and nothing else for days now, she's been doing all the audio work.

I thought that you were only doing minor video trouble-shooting. Interesting.

---

I thought a lot of things. I've stopped thinking, it's much easier this way.

---

I so need to get my own apartment so that I can do this: [link]

---

ooh I want one too! I was surprised how expensive it is.

OMG. I've been on the computer all day, and not stepped foot in B.org, and there were a TON of responses. I gotta "Meara" me related things. Very eerie.

Omnis, fwiw, I would tell her directly pre-date, because if she is the type of person to cut and run for that reason, I would want to know before I showed up. But I'm a big coward who is very afraid of rejection, so YDateMV.

Ya KT, you just reproduced my brain. Should be forward & honest, but hates rejection...

I am of two minds about this. On the one hand, you should tell her because you don't want to get to like her and have that be an issue. On the other hand, maybe she will get to know you on that date and decide that it doesn't matter. Urgh. I suppose that I lean toward disclosure. Better to be disappointed now than later after you've invested something.

yup, those are my two hands.

I'm ignorant about the "sticks" status. Are they permanent? Sorry if I am being intrusive. I just had a lot of "experience" with dating sites and would love to chip in but I don't know the circumstances.

Java, not intrusive at all. Yup, baring some miracle of Stem Cell Research, its very much permanent.

omnis, I usually like to tell people ahead of time because I am a coward about having to deal with it in person, but then again I never really dated before TCG, and with him I let my friend that set us up tell him before we met.

:: sings "Matchmaker Matchmaker make me a Match... ::

You could send her one of those pictures, in which you are very cute.

:: blush :: Aw shucks. She saw a bunch of pics I posted to Match.com. But none of them highlighted me on the sticks. I recently posted one of me on the beach which shows the sticks real good, but not sure if she saw it or not.

I'm for telling in advance, too. Even the nicest person may be thrown by new information that they would have to process on top of the normal in-person-meeting jitters.

Ya, that's what's been gnawing in my head.

omnis, I think you have to do what makes you comfortable. Just as you are not AllAboutTheSticks, it's unlikely she is AllAboutTheHiking. Both of you have found something else interesting to recommend yourselves to the other, so you'll talk about those things ...

Sparky, I hope you don't tire of this... but SPARKY IS WISE! I sure hope this is the case.

now for non-me Meara:

I'm having a dark day. I hate dark days.

Yikes! Worst reason for me not being on all day. KT, if this happens again, don't hesitate to call me. If I'm in tech, I can text or IM ya, and if not (like today) we can talk, or come up and visit. {{{HUGS}}}

I'm ready to throw a computer overboard, but other than that things are peachy.

If it's one of yours that you are renting for the show, it will mean a service call and MORE time on the boat. IJS.

I thought a lot of things. I've stopped thinking, it's much easier this way.

BWAH! OMG, that made me laugh way too much. I think that works for SCR too.

as if the last post wasn't long enough...in case your curious.

Her profile: [link]

and my profile: [link]

omnis if it was me it'd be a kindness to let me know first because I'd probably overcompensate trying to show you how cool I am and end up making an utter ass of myself.

Inkittykittynews she just spent more time playing with me than she has since we brought her home and check out this breakthrough.

edit: Omnis she sounds great!

re-edit: "Heron Indian" is this a typo? The only google hits I'm getting are for birds.

---

He might mean Huron Indian.

---

dang typo's. Thanks. Amazing thats the only one.
