Hi -- beth b here. No caps because i am a lazy typist. Until seconds ago I thought I was the last buffista Elizabeth in the east bay , but I guess not.
ok I work as a librarian , ( one of the chosen buffista line of work) and I was late to fandom -- BTVS was my fist. I joined TT when the second thread was in progress-- being a completest I had to read all the posts before I could join in. Natter, bitches , Literary, and random tv threads -- it depends how far behind I am .
Currently I am the person of an orange/butterscotch fluff ball disaster cat named Andy. Who is annoyed at me because I put flea stuff on him today.
I live with my DH who is a lurker, but a better buffista fit than I am when it comes to grammar.
I moved from Ct to Ca shortly after Buffy started. My sister is in the area , but not near by. I wasn't working. I think Buffy was my first anchor because my mom and my sisters ( and DH and BIL) all watched. Something with some substance to talk about-- really hours of conversation. Finding the Buffistas -- I found a daily social release that wasn't scary. I've met bunch of the buffistas face to face. I hope I never have to leave where I live, ( um I really love my house and the district I lve in . No really I talk about my house, my DH , my cat, and my town), knowing I can take my Buffy people with me anywhere is very cool.
Guess how I feel about the serial comma.
ps I can not spell or type
Okay, I actually forgot beth. That's pretty sad since I just saw you. Sorry!
Anyway, that makes 5 Elizabeths that I know of.
SailAweigh, I emailed EllenBS and told her to come over and represent! We'll see if she does...
much in line with nora emailing ellenbs, I was thinking of emailing some lapsed buffistas and encourage them to come post a hello and update. Sort of an ollie ollie in come free detour to the thread.
Hee. We've got all month!
Welcome, ehab! (In my head it sounds a lot like Ahab, which gives you this whole grim-faced-obsessive-captain-staring-at-the-horizon-whilst-searching-for-an-amusingly-named-white-whale vibe.)
Hi SLNRLBF here. I was introduced to B.org looking over Askye's shoulder while kissing her neck lovingly . Not a bad way to be introduced to the hive. She shared with me her love and long standing friendship with her fellow buffistas and I was hooked. In addition to being a professional lurker I live in Vermont on lake Champlain. I spend my days working for John Deere and my evenings lurking from my dairy farm. My life has led me to dabble in politics, public office, international agriculture, advocating for family farms, and conservation.
My sweet Askye has taken it upon herself to guide me on my journey of Buffy and my personal favorite Firefly.
After having the pleasure of meeting Nora and Tom I look forward to meeting more wonderful Buffistas. If any of you visit Vermont please let me know I'm always up for buying you a pint at the alchemist.
My current project is working to changing my tag to SLNRLH.
Cheers
SLNRLBF aka Will or Wilson
Wow five Elizabeths! Hopefully that means I can blend into the crowd. Thank you all for the friendly welcome. Fay, I've had a similar reaction seeing my online name as well. I think my first order of business may be changing my name just to confound you all. While I have been known to have the ribald laugh of a sea captain, I can't claim to really ever be grim faced, though a wee bit obsessive perhaps.
Hi SLNRLBF! Now that's a mouthful.
Keep delurking everyone. This is fun!
P.S. Thanks Scrappy for making an effort not to startle me.
