Not got your reading glasses on, Mickey? Pep (Try post #30) PS Since you are complaining I never correct your posts - it is "weighing up" not "weighing in"; boxers and jockeys do the latter. I don't need glasses. I do however, need an Alt Detector. See you later tonight....Loverboy  |

I second that. (Being a loner has nothing to do with my depression. Just means I don't prefer large crowds and am perfectly happy being alone or with my partner) Benski I so relate to you buddy!! Being a loner, and dealing with depression ARE two different things. I'm a loner by nature......people actually worried about me when I was little cause I'd disappear (even as a small child I hated crowds and having to be 'on' all the time, I preferred hanging out in the woods or making up stories and writing them) Anyway.....I relate. I deal with depression too.....but, I've been alone and totally happy often enough in my life to be fiercely protective of my loner status.  And I LOVE people....but I'm a lot better at one on one or in small intimate groups so I can give 100% to one person at time which to me is much more satisfying._____________________

1. I'm having a wide variety of medical issues stemming from an automobile accident that happened close to two years ago. I rarely feel well. 2. I'm sort of a frumpy dresser. I wear distresses huggers(winter), or shorts(summer), with a tank top or tee, just about all the time. 3. I'm very quite ... a lot of people think I'm aloof. Second Life 1. I like it far better here on Second Life. 2. I'm one of Second Life's dedicated Barbie Dolls ... 3. I would like to see Pep come to Houston and start correcting people's spelling. |

What a strange impulse, to answer this one!
SL: I own more female outfits and parts than male ones, but walk around male. SL: I bought land thinking building would be fun, because I used to lay out underground nightclubs for maximum party effect. Some weird inhibition has stopped me doing a damn thing with it though. RL: My transport totals 24 wheels and 1,017 horsepower. RL: I have been on TV six times, always dressed in black rubber. |

1) I'm pretty normal and healthy in RL, though I've probably put on 10 pounds since my SL addiction started.
2) I went streaking through my neighborhood (in RL) last winter. 3) I'm an alt-turned-main. My old account is now defunct. |

And I LOVE people....but I'm a lot better at one on one or in small intimate groups so I can give 100% to one person at time which to me is much more satisfying. People do seem to mistake 'introvert' for 'anti social' or 'misanthropic'. Not the same things although one can be any or all of those things. Simplest definition of extrovert vs. introvert: Extrovert - batteries recharged by other people; comes to life around people; often the more people around the happier/more energised they are or feel. Introvert - batteries recharged by time to themselves; feels slowly drained after a bit, around other people; often the more people around, the quicker they feel drained and/or overwhelmed. Has nothing to do with whether one 'likes' people - there can be misanthropes among either type. But a lot of people peg an introvert as 'loner headed for the clock tower.'  |

3. I would like to see Pep come to Houston and start correcting people's spelling. More rl confessions? 1. When I worked for Andersens, for a month one year in Chicago I taught a dozen Houston staff (all but one female) a lot more than how to spell.  2. They inducted me as an honorary Texan since I outdrank and outpartied them by a country mile. 3. As a result I may even have several children born in Houston. If you are about 30 you may be one of them.  Pep (Well, since you asked )PS If you are about 50, female, good loking, intelligent and used to work for Andersen's . . . nah, don't bother! _____________________

... I taught a dozen Houston staff (all but one female) ... I think this is an example of amphiboly. Does it mean that all employees were female except for one, who was a man OR that you taught all the employees (male and female), except for one, who was female ? . _____________________

does that mean that all were women except one, who was a man OR that you taught all, except for one, who was female ? . Both as it happened, in different contexts. Pep (It doesn't make much sense the second way though - in the way *you* mean it. )_____________________

Pep (It doesn't make much sense the second way though - in the way *you* mean it. )Not to pick at nits, but if there were 6 men and 6 women, and you taught 11 of them to spell better, then you taught all but one female. (At this point my mother would clutch her head and ask me to keep quiet.) I just re-read your rejoinder, and I will have to think a while to see what *you* mean. . _____________________

He taught them work related things. He taught them non work related things. In each group there was one he did not teach.
I think that's what he meant...Lol. |

All in all, it sounds as if Houston might have had a problem.

I read that he taught them "a lot more about spelling." It makes more sense now. A LOT more sense now. (That wink mystified me.) . _____________________

Ok, here's my 2 cents:
RL: I've gopher-plinked for a friend who owns a farm not far from where I live; I enjoy target practice, but have mixed feelings when said targets are small fuzzy rodents. RL: I like flight and driving simulators SL: Primarily, I'm a builder and texturemaker, but I work as a dancer for fun. |

RL 1: I took leasons and officially learned to swim at age 3 because I was constantly heading for water as fast as my toddler legs could carry me. My parents were afraid if I didn't know how to swim I would drown.
RL 2: I am somewhat dissillusioned, scarred, broken down emotionally and physically; but still looking for the moments of joy. RL 3: My Real Life is mostly about others, kids, family, sweetheart. I am trying to learn to keep a bit more for me. SL 1: Early on I did the work thing and almost got burned out. Now SL is mostly about fun. SL 2: I have alts to explore different aspects of myself. They are mostly cross referenced on my picks page for anyone to see and not a secret. SL 3: My SL is mostly about ME! Exploring myself, doing what I want. I let myself be selfish in SL. Which doesn't mean I can't care and be generous with friends also, but it is about me. |
