Hey.
I wish I could say he had me at "take" -- but we're huge West Wing and 24 fans and at the time didn't have TiVO (slap forehead). It seemed as if every week we'd flip to AI just in time to see Ryan chatting up Clay after his song. By the finale, we'd gotten TiVO and I think I wore it out watching BOTW. When it was over, I couldn't believe that was the last time I would see him and, like billions of others, I Googled him and voila! A world such as I never knew existed opened up and swallowed me whole.
There was the good -- so many choices! So much fun!
There was the bad -- WTF are those people talking about? And who has that much time on their hands to discuss such stoopid stuff?
There was the ugly -- weeks on end of staying up till 4 am clacking, going to work on 2 -3 hours of sleep, ignoring the spouse, having an intervention staged (I kid you not).
Now, I mainly hang out on one thread at the Clayboard -- safely hidden from all the madness, and I lurk religiously at the CH. Now that Jemock has a blog at the Oh-ffical Fansite, I visit daily. My threadmates at CB are dear friends and we are all meeting for a Dotapalooza in Cary in August. EEEEEE!
My interests are varied -- love to read, write and play outside. I live in paradise (San Diego) and right now am retired and laying around healing from foot and shoulder surgery (at the same time). At some point I will have to go back to making money. My hubby is in Iraq -- has been for a year, will be for another year -- so my clacking time is unlimited right now. I'll deal with the withdrawal when he gets home.
My passion is public speaking and teaching and I'm working on finding a way to do that full time on subjects that I find interesting. I also like to talk (can you tell?!)
Thanks CT for making this space and for FCA. I love it here.
