I'm new, thought this would be a good way to introduce myself. Here we go:

1. I'm 22, newly married.

2. My house is overrun with Transformers that belong to my husband. Sometimes this annoys me, other times I just think it's cute.

3. I love my evil little cat. She's endearing at times, endangering at others.

4. I'm a year away from finishing college, and still have no idea what I want to do with my life.

5. I'm addicted to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It calls to me even now.

6. My husband is the only other atheist I know in my part of the country, and it scares me. <img src="graemlins/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" />

7. I have a burning desire to collect Jesus fish from other people's cars.

8. I hate Wal-Mart, but there's really nowhere else to shop here.

9. I like to paint, and I would really like to learn how to use oilpaint correctly.

10. I read these forums for almost a year before I registered. So, hi.

I hate that place too! WalMart

However I absolutely love that store Target and I could stay there all day, I buy tons of stuff at Target. Target truly is a fashion leader...

I like wordplays and puns that (in my experience) seem to go over the heads of most listeners -- maybe because they aren't expecting me to make a joke, and/or because I tend to do it with a straight face then sit back to see how long it takes for the listener(s) to "get it".

That sounds like the story of my life. For some reason, I'm always surprised, too, when people call me serious. I joke all the time.

It should tip me off that only a handfull of people ever 'get' my jokes, alas...

On a semi-relate note: It's nice to hear that so many people here like to be alone. I was starting to think there was something wrong with me for finding so few people with whom I enjoy spending time. I have no idea why i live in the city ... I should go live alone in the woods. Ahh... where I will likely slowly go insane.

This thread is great. Most of you seem like some really great people (ha) who've led much more interesting lives than i have (at least so far).

When are you moving to San Francisco?

Thanks, Bubba. However, unless you want me to leave again straightaway, you may want to refrain from mentioning me and Douglas in the same post...

I forgot to put this on my list, so now I suppose it will be a bonus...

Hell, Amy I'm a guy and even I like to shop for clothes at Target. They do a really nice Job and their staff people are always really helpful. Besides, Target sponsers Indy car racing.

Ju'iblex I think your website is cool. Also glad at your age you feel open to talking about your sexual orientation.

Well, I was recently nominated for "most deceptively funny" poster at ARN. An honor I will cherish for as long as I remember having it.

In Christ,

Douglas
