Go, you, msbelle!
Wow, 1997! I haven't had the privilege for that long, but that is amazing. I wish I knew what year I started lurking. And how I got here. I think there was a link in some article or blog or something, but I just can't remember specifics. I know I started posting during the Quote-off. Man, that was fun!
Allergy ~ma to meara and configuration ~ma to ND.

Ahhh, the quote deathmatch! I used to put a lot of energy into doing those.
We even had a phrase for when a quote lost because I ran a match during some time zone's lunch lull. I think we used Principle Snyder's "spazzed."
Like, "That quote got spazzed because Halifax was all out to lunch!"
We made our own fun.
I am supposed to present an award in a few hours so I'm trying to jot down some notes. I'm hoping some loose bullet points will give me a coherent enough through-line without resorting to reading a speech. Public speaking is very much not my wheelhouse.
"Be sincere. Be brief. Be seated."
I forget the source.
I’m so sorry to hear about Todd.
I wish I knew what year I started lurking.
LA F2F although I don't recall the year. Well, I never really lurked. I *think* I found Buff Diving and then finding the Board that night or the next day.
Yeah, I found the board a little bit before the LA F2F
I stumbled onto TT sometime in 2000 - I was just out of college and working as a temp, mostly on receptionist gigs that left me with a LOT of time to waste online in-between answering phones.
I came here after the board address was on the last aired episode of Firefly which I think was around the LA F2F. I certainly saw pics from that during my fairly long lurk before posting. Took me a looong time to work up the nerve to post in Natter! Though I was in the show threads and even Bitches before that.
Spent the last two days lying down in a darkened room with a headache (not, I think, a migraine but persistent and wobbly-making) and today I am reporting for jury duty. Called in Friday to be told to call in again on Monday to be told to come to the courthouse, we’ll see what happens next.
Administer justice!
