6/24/03 12:46 am...feature silence in large doses, the gifts of the mind in smaller amounts, and sometimes wish that they had more courage.
I was thinking about BBS's a moment ago. They weren't my very first introduction to the concept of being online (America Online at thirteen popped that cherry, I'm afraid), but they were the first place I started having a concept of 'online friends'. Most of those were people I went to school with and practiced flirting with online because I wasn't brave enough to do it offline. I only had in-person meetings with a couple of the people I first met online in those days, and neither of them amounted to anything in the long run. I don't even remember their names.
I'm not entirely certain what brought that out of my mind, other than my usage of the word 'silence' in the first sentence. Silence, you see, was one of my major monikers for my stint on the BBS's I frequented. The other was Tylanna, if you happened to be curious.
Mmnmnnneeeh. I am now going to go do a variety of things related to going to sleep. Perhaps I will post more tomorrow. Perhaps I will not. We shall, as they say, see.
(Incidentally, I drank a shooter today that had the taste and consistency of extremely combustible chocolate pudding. It was, shall we say, an intriguing experience. Shortly after consuming that mysterious concoction I got into a punwarwordwar revolving around the word 'dill'. I think I won, because my opponent eventually defaulted and started using many fishy words. ;} ...Perhaps it is one of those things where you just sort of 'had to be there.')
And I'm not actually infuriated about anything. Mostly just drowsy.
