Do you think we should mention it in Press?
Delurking 1: Because we don't always check our e-mail.
Heh. I think we should delurk as the people we were when we joined the board.
Hi, I’m a 20-something who’s desperately pretending to not be miserable. I have not yet learned how to play politics even a little bit, which makes work challenging at time. I really REALLY like you people.
Ha!
I am 27 and work for KU. I just started to officially be diagnosed with chronic depression and chronic insomnia, and I hadn't gotten laid in 7 years. I watch Buffy every Tuesday night, record it with a VCR when I can't be home, and I rush to the other room where my desktop lives to post quickly on Salon.com before Buffy comes back on.
I was 2/3's through a novel about a succubus before the market got flooded with them. (Still bitter, and pissed at myself about THAT one.)
Back when I delurked I had recently gotten married and started working at USC, my mother was suffering from dementia, DH & I were helping my father and brother out with caregiving duties, and we were trying to conceive.

Oh, man. That person was still in college, could and would eat an entire large pizza from Papa John's without gaining weight, owned vinyl pants, and listened to a lot of nu metal.
Hmm, I was newly moved to California and underemployed, waiting for my bar results, and living in my sister's basement.
Hi, I found this thread through a sidebar on salon.com. I think it was by someone called Agnes Bertiz? I just graduated from law school and am working for a judge in DC.
I delurked on salon.com because of Vortex and our friend Jack! I'm living in a weird apartment with a friend of a friend's friend, who needed someone until the end of her lease, in the DC suburbs, temping at a company randomly and still trying to figure out what I want to do and applying for all sorts of weird jobs. I just came out as gay a couple months ago to myself and to anyone else!
I live in NYC with my BF, teach screenwriting part-time and work as a copy editor at a legal publisher.
Hi! I live in Arizona. Askye from The Hellmouth Cafe BTVS chatroom convinced me to give this place a look. With encouragement from a friend from my old Star Trek chatroom, I started flirting with a really nice guy at THC named Daniel, and he's here too. We may or may not have already begun joking about me moving to Minnesota. Let's see, I live in the desert (or is that dessert, I often get mixed up). I have two cats who are mine but I let them come in and out as they please (actually, it's pretty much impossible to keep them inside that old trailer, they'd tear up the walls to get out) and they have all sorts of social contacts among the feral/barn cat population who come around. It's very interesting to observe feline behavior in this extended way. I'd already been working with adults with developmental disabilities for a few years, and I'd had to find ways to fight burn out.
