'Bushwhacked'
Delurking 1: Because we don't always check our e-mail.
I post sometimes; other times I lurk. Often I feel like I have nothing to say.
I rarely post weird links to Natter anymore, as I'm more likely to post them to FB.
Hi to all the lurkers!
here for the annual de-lurking ritual...
Let's see - still living in Ottawa, being a civil servant. VERY VERY VERY happy with the outcome of this election and very hopeful it will mean real change. And not just because the PM-designate is super hot. (his wife is also ridiculously attractive).
In the last few years I've started playing around with writing fiction, finished a couple of short stories which haven't found any "official" homes, kept playing with it until I finished a first draft of a novel. Oops. So that's a work in progress. I'm always thrilled to read about Buffista writers and Sox, I have a copy of Updraft waiting for me to get around to it...it's battling for priority with the research and writing of my own, I'm sure you know how that goes :)
A while back I decided I needed some comfort TV and began a re-watch of Buffy. Somewhat selective re-watch. A few season 1 eps, all of 2 and 3 and 4, pretty much. One of my very favourite moments in the whole series is when Willow comes out to Buffy about Tara, I've decided. I am now in the heavy-duty slogging of Season 5. After some hesitation, yes I watched The Body, just this morning. Still one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful eps of TV, ever.
AND - the real reason I am posting - you know that conversation in Infinite Chrises, and Kid von Strucker, and what else he's been in? I'm 99% sure he is Gavin in The Body - the boy that Dawn talks to in her art class. (he's not credited on IMDB, but I'm sure it's him).
You folks are the only people I can say "hey! That guy! Look!" to about that. So there you go.
Also, realizing that was Amy Adams playing Tara's cousin Beth. Cool.
Emily - good to see your fonts. I know you haven't been a New England-ista for ages, but where did you end up?
Hi, friends! Sometimes lurker here. We moved to NC in January and love it here. My oldest started ,kindergarten and will be 6 (!!!!) in Dec. Youngest is very much 2.5. DW is still a sahm. All 3 are adorable
Happy Fall!
Hey GC, it's so fun to see the pics of your lovely family
Detour to California, Rip-Van-Winkle-like visit to Virginia, and just now have ended up BACK in Massachusetts.
Hello pretty people. Not here much as the job just doesn't allow it. But I see many of you on fb and love keeping up with all your doings.

Where? I've been longing for a meeting up of locaistas even if I haven't been very proactive on it.
I haven't been lurking this year. In fact, I've been forcing everyone in Natter to participate in my major life decisions. Of which there have been many.
