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.

This is Salon boards and I still have magic in my heart.

I'm doing this legal secretary thing until I get enough acting work to quit my day job. It pays REALLY well and the benefits are outstanding. And surely this is as fat as I'll ever be.

I'm sitting in a sleeping bag in my drafty and underheated house in Connecticut. I'm supposed to be working on my dissertation! I'm actually volunteering at the public library a couple of mornings a week and talking my husband down from the crazy that is his job we moved here for. Plus sleeping a lot, because, depressed. On the plus side, we have an adorable new kitten!

(Who is now 14.)

I'm living by myself for the first time in Durham, NC, and spending a lot of time on lj. I love my job if not my contractor, I'm deeply in debt, and I've been hitting the Buffista Quote Generator daily, so I figure I should check out the source.

Aw, you guys. I love this idea!

I just turned 21 and am in my last year of college (sorta). I took all last year off from school and had some friendships go down in flames before I left, so this is kind of a lonely year for me, but also freeing. I watch Buffy a LOT and am super excited to meet some interesting, accepting, like-minded people. I just hope you all don't forget me when I go off to South Africa next year and won't be around to post as much.

I've been living in the States (Philly, to be specific) for about eighteen months. I turned up on TT as a Time Online refugee, posting on religion and spirituality. (I'd been working through my issues from losing my religion, by way of a semester at Melbourne University on moral philosophy.)

I found the Buffistas during a couple of exploratory sorties around the site, Buffy being one of my favourite shows and lacking any other real outlet to discuss it. I think my first post was on Anselm's Ontological Proof. Expect such posts to be far outweighed in the future by postings on the mating habits of a wide array of wildlife (including, but not limited to, my siblings).

Damn, this feels weird. So much of my life was very different back then. This place has been one of the biggest constants in my life for the last twelve years.
