ok, so I'm new and talking to all of you wonderful people...  but don't know a thing about you!  (Except for a couple)....

so maybe if y'all could tell me who you are, where you're from, single/married, age, employment??

I'm 25...from Pennsylvania.  I go to school for Criminal Justice and do nursing in a private home.  I'm single and, some of the time, lovin' it.  Nothing much else i can think of....if ya have a question, just ask! :-)

I'm 27 from Pennsylvania about 2 hours outside of Pittsburgh.  Right now I am between jobs.  May be moving to California soon. Oh, I am in a long term relationship.

That's about it, I'm pretty boring.

A pleasure to meet you.

16, and living in a very cold Igloo. The thermostat is sacred (Canada).

I like to smile at the wrong times (it gives people the wrong impression), and bury myself in subtle details (like the way silence falls before glass breaks).

I like cookies.  

Single, but not communicating with my soul at the moment. It made me mad (insane? Yes).

Employed in a learning facility where fragments are taught and whole pictures are assumed, not the other way around.

I hate warm pens.

What people like about me: I'm nice.
What I don't like about myself: I'm too nice.
What I can do to fix this: Share less.

i'm an old gal... with silver hair, blue eyes, and a silly sense of humor.  i live in michigan, am the city assessor in our small town, live with my adult daughter who just graduated from college and is getting on her feet... and am thankful for all the good things and people in my life.

Opeth, I live near Allentown

Cool replies all :-) This isn't half bad....

Cpat....LOLOLOL  I spend $125 towing fee, $120 mechanics fee.....  the mechanic called me yesterday and told me my car was done.  I drove it 1/2 mile and took it back to him and told him to try again.  HE called my back today and told me he couldn't find anything wrong with it.  My dad suggested that it might be water in my gas.  I bought some dry gas and it seems to be a LITTLE better.  I'm going to add another container tomorrow....

so, I paid $225 for $1.77 bottle of dry gas

*shoots self* LOLOLOL

I'm 19, from Calgary, Alberta (Canada), and am freezing to death as I write this.

I am opinionated, moody, counter-culture, and in love with some dude who lives in Cali. The idjit. I am also up about five hours past my bedtime here, and have to work tomorrow...

I work at a Value Village. Yeeha. The customer base is the exact same as when I worked graveyard shifts at the Tim Horton's; drunk, broke, dirty, and rude. I liked it better at the Timmy's, where I got 20 a night, not hundreds... *sigh*

I'm at the U of C taking web design courses, but really, I couldn't care less. I want to be a published author, and will probably die broke on a street corner some day with my poet hubby. (Just you wait, Mikhail! It'll be a street corner in Seattle, I promise!)

remember the sound
that could wake the dead
but nobody woke up at all

Work, hmmmm well technically I am Computer Operations and Access Administration Supervisor for a fair sized mortgage Co./bank. Translated... I am a computer nerd and only actually spend about 5 of my 8 hours a day at work really working.

one of the fossils of Passions earliest days but I just recently rose from the dirt and rejoined the herd so it's good to see who is here. yup yup good idea this is Kristie.

As to who I am if you read my stuff you may know me as well as I know myself.Of course you will hafta dig even deeper into the archives than to read Rebel's stuff and an awful lot of it is in Poetry for adults (cuz like most computer geeks I spent alot of time fantasizing growing up since teenage girls don't care much for geekiness)

Oh yeah. Very pleased to meetcha. I'd kiss yer hand as is proper if'n I could.

I am 17, born and raised in and around Chicago. I'm graduating highschool this year, but my dad is giving me a headstart on adulthood by throwing me out on the street when I turn 18 (the very moment I'm no longer his legal responsibility). Ummm... probably shouldn't burden you with that, though.
I am not technically in a relationship at the moment. I just ended one and am in the process of establishing another.

Any other questions?
