Reunion time

JOANNE HI JOANNE

I'm living in Urbana (university town 3 hours south of Chicago) with the boy I've been dating for almost two years now (hay guyz wanna know a secret i'm ttly gonna marry him if he asks me). I have two jobs, one as a teacher's assistant in the Special Ed department at the high school, the other as the kindergarten activity leader for an elementary after-school program. I sing in a lesbian/feminist choir and I just took up aikido. In the next year I'm probably going to relocate back north of Chicago (the boy already commutes there every weekend) and get my certification to teach French while I'm waiting for a good time to get my Ph.D. in Linguistics. (PS. Cass we should hang out and talk about Old French if I ever get back there.)

Still in Seattle. Working for a good company that runs several click to give websites with associated webstores. Saving all my pennies to go on EPIC travel next year that will take me across the US and to Europe and then Africa, and will likely last 2 years or more. That is all.

Well, gees, last night, I had a foursome.

In the morning, all the girls talked smack on all the idiot drunks guys that hit on them at the bars last night. I was going to tell them that most guys don't give a shit, but why ruin their fun?

I am content and utterly sick of being in the presence of females.

I cannot even imagine how horrible that was.

"Oh good morning. Thank you for the most uncomfortable sexual experience of my life let's never do this again bye."

HI QUSIE SUE HI HI HI

Amongst unfortunatly far too many of those experiences, I most recently had one with a friend who I had known for yeaaaaars. I woke up and was all 'Oh good lord how much did i manage to drink, why why why, ok please get up, get out and go to work now' And the weather was terrible and he was all "Oh hey, maybe WE'LL get lucky and i won't have to go to work" And in my head i begged for him to have to go to work. He did... Then his car had trouble starting and I got nervous again... Then it worked. And he left. And never again kthnxbyeeee

hello. i'm in college now, and have been for a couple of years (what? you thought i was in college or older way back in 2004? forgiven). i actually recognize most of the names in this thread, which is shocking/frightening/refreshing. some things never change.

Oh hey I even remember you from your infrequent drop-ins.

Hi. I'm not taking classes or working, but instead depending on Pike for a while. I would feel bad about this, but he depended on me and our other roommates for a few months four years ago. I guess I'll pay him back eventually.

My free time is squandered on sleep, internet, guitar, listening to music, singing, and reading. Wish I could say I had a girlfriend, but all the women I'm interested in are taken, recently broken-up, or don't know who the hell I am.

Hooray!

Hi...

so... I'm in a very different place and situation to the place and situation that I was in when last I frequented the internets.

here follows the story:

I recieved a little diamond dove as a gift, I then purchased a second dove to befriend the first. I then killed them a few months later with doom. When I had finished my weeping and mourning, which lasted a few hours, I decided to aquire a new pet. I now have a naughty little cockateal which I raised from a 3 week old screaming bundle of pinning feathers and green crap to a 9 week old bigger, squaking, bundle of propper feathers and even greener yet less frequent crap.

I love him.

Also, it should be noted that I had no intention to kill my doves. it was an accident, an idiotic accident that was caused by the presence of a crane-fly and my inability to squash icky insects with a shoe or rolled up piece of newsprint. It just seems so inhumane... so I spray them with insecticide and watch as they die slowly in a writhing mass of spastic leg-jerks and feeble wing-beats.

Ah the circle of life.

So I also have this beautiful car right. Yea I'm the rich spoilt friggen kid who's parents gave her a 2 litre, supercharged, automatic german car. I won't lie, I love my machine but I've been in two accidents with the thing. Thus I conclude that a Mercedes-Benz is not a good first car because you either skip a red light and end up with a bent fender that costs more to replace than the cost of the entire Toyota Corola that rightfully assaulted your left side OR a certain person driving an Opal Corsa expects you to skip a red on a rainy night with low visibility and a slippery road, because you drive a German car and that's what they were made for. His expectation is then met by disappointment as his radiator meets with the beautiful large, white hind quarters of my Eva. Thankfully, in the latter event there was absolutely no damage to the Benz but the other car was kaput.

Still... She's smoother than taunt latex, she sounds like a mini jet engine when she accelerates and once you take her past 200km/h you sweat like a poedofile in a nursary.

Then my mother files for divorce... which is funny because my step-father recently aquired a licence to be a mariage officer and was planning on giving couples counselling in his spare time. While this was going on my 21-year-old brother married a woman 2 years younger than mother dearest so that he could stay in the US. He can't stand her though so he lives with his girlfriend who is 3 years my mother's senior.

My mother is 50

To my discredit I:

Dropped out of uni
Pissed off the landlady
Put on weight
Found out that I was supposed to be adopted (Honestly, no lies)
Developed daddy issues (about the guy who only contributed sperm to my life and nothing else)
Aquired a phobia of traffic lights

And way more happy stuff like:

I made new way cool, awesome friends
Got absolutely mothered on tequila and lived
Stole an assortment of roadsigns that now deccorate my flat
Ate truckloads of sushi
Decided to move to England next year which is now finalised
Kept up my long distance relationship for another year with a trully remarkable young gentleman
Played soooo much squash
Drank barrels of really good local wine
And I did it all to the tune of great music.

My parents are still married though.
And my cockateal's name is Balthazaar

I moved to Russia on the 2nd of September, for the third year of my degree. I live in St. Petersburg with a totally mad woman called Rosa who goes through our bins and accuses us of throwing up on the walls. She also keeps saying how impressive it is that we speak English so well. Crazy, I know... it's almost like we were born there or something!

I am dating a guy whom I've been talking to for ages, without ever really thinking of him that way. Even though I won't be in England for more than two months between now and the end of August 2010, he says it's worth it and we're going to try it. I am bewildered by all this niceness and honesty and such.

Otherwise nothing interesting or new has really happened to me.

Ditto. Short term, it works, as long as there's a point in the future when it won't have to be long-distance any more.

I suppose I'll put two cents, and two cents only tonight:

- I'm at law school now, departing my work in Washington for the ivory tower/barn silo.

- I was in Kazakhstan in May, which was pretty excellent.

Cheers.

Well now, it has been some time. I am currently working at a mate's company, but I'm currently preparing to go off to South Korea for a year and teach English. I dunno if I'll like it or be any good at it, but it sounded like something I should do before I try for PhD funding again. But pretty much everything else is the same as it was. Which is a bit dull when I think about it.

I have a friend who's in SK doing that very same thing. I think he's liking it alright. Let me know if you meet him.

This is all sorts of neat. We're adults.

I've been married to a giant named Luke for four years. We have two beautiful boys Evan and Kyle. I spend my days with them.
