I don't really know what to put down for this journal. Most of what runs through my mind is fairly prosaic. I guess I should introduce myself.
Some Basic (Random) Facts:
-I am a 29 years old woman, but I still live with my parents (although not for long).
-I currently work as an administrative assistant, although I am working towards my masters in public health and one day hope to be an Epidemiologist (the study of how diseases spread).
-I'm in love with my boyfriend, who makes me feel like the most important thing in the world.
-I like LARPing (live action role play) and TableToping, though I've never tried online roleplaying. For me its more social, something to do while you're with your friends.
-I've never been able to make real friends easily, but I prefer true friends to the friendly acquaintances that most people call friends. A true friend is someone you want to be with outside of gaming, someone whose happiness matters to you, who you worry about and care for. A friendly acquaintance is someone who you hang with right now, but if they left you would feel no more than a passing regret, if that. You might occasionally wonder what happened to them, but you wouldn't make any real effort to find out.
-I don't deal well with emotional situations unless I feel comfortable with the people involved. Sadly, but not surprisingly, I don't feel comfortable with most people. I guess I'm just too sensitive, I empathize too much with others and feeling what they feel isn't comfortable.
-As you may have guessed, I like being comfortable. I don't wear tight or scratchy cloths. I don't wear high heels. I don't go out and do things that make me sweat. I like to just sit down and be with my friends.
-I guess the only thing that can really get me fired up is when someone else takes away a person's choice. Be it whom they want to sleep with, what they want to do to their body, how they want to live. I believe that everyone should be able to do whatever they want, as long as no one else gets hurt and everyone is capable of giving consent (and does).
Hummm...I think I'll end here for now. I have to get back to work (sorta).
