Posted in Bucket List Posted 4 years ago

My list is long and mostly incomplete. I don't doubt that much of it will probably never get done, but there's hope for at least some.
-Have an article of clothing custom made for me: Done
-See Ozzy live: Not done, most recent tour got postponed until next year, making for two failed attempts so far. Still holding out hope for the new date.
-Have my own home: Not done. Tried, failed, repeat. Still trying.
-Go to Las Vegas: Done
-Go to Disney: Done
-Visit the Black Forest: Not done, will take a lot of time and money and planning.
-Get my name changed: Not done, will have to work on it when I have more time and money and actually decide on a middle name.
-Take my SO to the fair: Not done, will probably have to wait until next year or later due to time constraints and location.
-Get a tattoo: Done, but will require more.
-Try clown makeup: Not done, maybe next Halloween
-Get a didgeridoo: Not done, but easy enough to do when I have more money and space
-Visit the Australia Zoo: Not done, will take a lot of time and money and planning.
-Learn to play the banjo: Not done, but (slowly) working on it
-Work in a haunted attraction: Not done, maybe someday
-Get married: Done. Now waiting for the chance to get divorced.
-Own my own business: Not done, will have to wait until I get on my feet.
-Adopt a kid: Not done, will have to wait until I get on my feet.
-Tell my family what I think of them and hold them responsible for their actions for the whole extended family to see: Not done, will have to wait until I get on my feet.

and I'm gonna stop there before I make myself more depressed. :^)

Posted in Topics of interest Posted 4 years ago

@Wildfire: The easiest for me are questions that can be answered by pretty much anyone, like "What kind of ____ do you like best" or "what do you think about X situation". I like to come into an open discussion, leave my personal experiences, and let anyone who shares or has interest in those experiences say so for themselves. Likewise, if I see someone else's post that I can relate to or have a question about, I will respond to that and hopefully initiate a conversation within the topic. The more specific a thread's topic is, the less likely I am to respond because the less likely it will be to apply to me. My personal interests don't seem to align with those of most people I come across, so ymmv on that one.

But to be more specific, topics that usually catch my interest (in no particular order) are:
-gender and/or sexuality
-original characters
-writing and/or role-playing
-healthy/natural living
-animals (reptiles, invertebrates, cats, and pigs are my favorites)
-plants and mushrooms
-experiences with religion or religious groups/people
-experiences working in retail
-horror
-halloween
-magic
-food
-and pretty much any experience or interest that I find I can relate to, as there are many



My online presence varies a lot, as my work and other real-life commitments may change from day to day. Usually, though, I'm only online at night when no one else seems to be on, or very briefly in the morning when I don't really have time to contribute and just want to browse. And I can never seem to keep up a conversation for more than a few responses before either losing track of it or running out of meaningful things to say... but I try to be active when and where I can.

All the things you listed are good topics. I hate mindless "how r u/good/good/how r u" but I'll talk about anything as long as it interests me or I have something relevant to say.

@Deaa: we need a magic spell to make it disappear.
@Totalanimefan: your well wishes are most appreciated in these trying times.

@koneko: I don't know that I've ever actually used it. Would it be a good idea or a bad idea if I'm gonna be out and about all day tomorrow? The point is not to be coughing and nose running all over the place, or at least as little as possible.
