Hec, how did your map marker end up southwest of New Iberia, Louisiana? Planning a trip?

Bad aim? I don't know. Maybe my mind is drifting in the general direction of New Orleans.

Aww, delurkers, I love you all. So good to see folks like Rayne and Dawn again.

I'll note that, even though my Amarna is not an orange one, she is a gorgeous all-black cat (with one white hair--not a white patch, one single hair!). Also, I've been here long enough to have attended the first national F2F in Evanston (JZ was my roomie--hi, roomie!!) and hosted my first localista F2F when Angel had its finale.

Also, I met one of my RL friends here--after posting here for at least a year, if not longer, ChiKat and I discovered we lived only a mile or two apart and decided to hang out.

So, delurk, everyone! You never know who you'll meet.

Maybe my mind is drifting in the general direction of New Orleans.

So you DO know what it means to miss New Orleans!

tiggy here! i'm from nashville, tn.

How did I not know this?? I just moved to Nashville! We'll have to meet up!

In other news: Hi, I'm Kate, and I am pro-serial comma, -olives, and -cilantro. I used to live in Massachusetts, but now I live in Tennessee with my boyfriend and my cat (also orange!). I'm a librarian by training, currently working as an editor at a book review publication. I found the board in fall 2001, delurked right around the first airing of "Once More With Feeling," have attended (*counts*) four F2Fs, and love you people like crazy, even if I don't get as much time to post as I used to.

Wow, such a cool new thread! Welcome to the lurkers!

I'm PixKristin, originally known on the board as KristinT (and briefly known as Kristin before deciding that was way too easy to confuse with The Kristen). I found the board and delurked on an epically Buffistatastic night in March of 2004 when this lovely group of people raised over $2000 in 24 hours to bring Nilly from Israel to the US. My delurking night is immortalized in Allyson's book.

I'm originally from Connecticut but moved to the LA area (Pasadena, in fact--Solange, we should do coffee sometime!) four years ago. I'm getting married to my partner in crime NoiseDesign (who yes, I met via b.org) in January. I hold the unique distinction of being the only person ever to be proposed to via B'Craxy. Not sure if that's a source of pride or chagrin, but it was pretty awesome.

I'm a high school English teacher and a sometimes writer. I'm passionate about teaching, traveling, scuba diving, and laughing until I can barely breathe.

You can find me in Bitches, Natter, Literary, Minearverse, Jossverse, F2F, and the right-hand threads. I lurk in a few of the TV threads when I'm caught up and GWW when I'm not drowning in school stuff.

I love this board and the people on it. I've met most of the regular posters in person at one point or another and consider the people here family.

How did I not know this?? I just moved to Nashville! We'll have to meet up!

probably the same way i didn't know you'd moved here! meet up would be fab! whereabouts are you living?

Woohoo! I'm in the 12South area and work in Hillsboro Village, but could do pretty much anywhere in town (or elsewhere -- I need to do more exploring!). I'm going to be out of town this weekend and probably won't have much access to email, but if you send me a note at my profile address we can make plans!

And in other Nerd City news, I now think of Victor Infante as Zathras and wonder if he too is trained in crisis management.

Trust me on this: Every day's a crisis in Nerd City.

Wow, loving the delurkers! And such low usernumbers, you've clearly been lurking a long long time!!

I'm meara. Which is not my name in real life, but is my name all over the whole internet. And which I very much answer to in real life, and encourage people to do.

I was initially brought to TableTalk in late '99 by Vortex, and was quickly hooked. I'm a verb around here, cause my addiction got me in trouble at work and I started only reading in the evenings, not at work, and then responding in big catch-up posts. :) These days I don't have to do that, because I work from home...

I used to be a DCista, but a couple years ago moved to Seattle. I travel like mad for work, and am as likely to be found on a plane or away from home as at home (but it means I get to visit other buffistas in person a lot!)

I can be found in Bitches, Natter, Reality, Lit, Tech...so, um, not the show threads, or movies, or anything to do with Supernatural...

Hi all, and a hearty welcome to all the lurkers and semi-lurkers.

Here I am Burrell, named after my cat, in most other arenas I go by Norah. I would say I delurked back on TT, but that would imply I lurked before. What really happened is I saw a bunch of funny, charming people posting about Buffy and promptly introduced myself. And then got grilled by msbelle, good naturedly of course.

I live in LA, in the house where I grew up, with my husband and our two kids, a 6 yo girl and a 4 1/2 yo boy. I teach writing at USC, I even sometimes try to write myself. I post in a whole bunch of threads, mostly Natter and Bitches.
