Isolated Blurt Thread

[scheherazade_79]

So I'm browsing through an online dating site, and I get really excited. There's a chick with "TV" in front of her name, and I start wondering whether she's a presenter, or a camerawoman, or an actress, or a director, or even a weathergirl.

Except it wasn't that kind of TV

Jesus, Zade. Leave the big city women alone until you're more clued up on this...

I know what a bunnyboiler is now, too. I thought it was someone in their 40s who exercised a lot in tracksuits, but it's more sinister than that.

It's a minefield.

My needs are simple, and you are simply all I need.

My heart hurts. The sadness is too big to swallow. It's sitting right there. And I can't breathe properly.

June. *faint*

That's for sure.

If it is an Irish folk song and it mentions love, it doesn't end well.

Sure and I'm no expert, but that sounds right.

Just when I imagine myself as being a little bit "cool" I'm brought down to earth my new things I can't even imagine.

"TV?" Typhoid vector? Trite and vacuous? Presumably neither, unless the personals have gotten a lot more honest since "likes to walk in the rain." (Hey Zade - you really do like that - how 'bout a date? )

I feel invisible in a crowded world.

I'd guess on something else. But that's just cause I remember Dr. Frank'n'furter in the Rocky Horror Picture Show

I want to be in Alaska.

 

[JagFarlane]

I want to be in Alaska.

Awwww -hugs-

 

[Tarakin]

I want to be in Alaska.

* Hugs *

That would be even further away from me!

 

[Katyusha]

Awwww -hugs-

*hugs* Thank you. I miss seeing the solstice up there.

* Hugs *

That would be even further away from me!

*hugs*

Actually I wouldn't be...there are direct flights from Germany to Fairbanks once a week, and they're six and a half hours long. If I were in Alaska, Fairbanks is where I'd be.

But it would still be the wrong continent

What is it that drives you into the cold? Can I help you in any way?

Fairbanks is beautiful at this time of year. Not cold at all. We spent four months there in the summer of '05 and fell in love with the place...it's beautiful and the people are amazingly open and friendly. The 22 hours of sunlight at the solstice is interesting...they have the midnight sun festival at the solstice every year. And then when it gets late enough in the summer for the place to actually start having night again, when there's decent solar activity you can see the northern lights. Get away from town and you can HEAR the northern lights.

Head south down the Richardson Highway towards Anchorage or Valdez and you see the mountains and some glaciers, and some beautiful rivers and waterfalls. Head north toward the Circle on the Steese Highway and you see the gold dredges and their tailings piles, and hills and itty bitty provinicial towns that haven't been touched by anybody but their inhabitants and the occasional traveler in decades. On both highways you travel along the pipeline; you can stop at parking pullouts and walk over to the service road, and walk along the pipeline to your heart's content.

In short, I want to be there because I miss the place. If there was any place we ever visited during those eighteen months on the road that we'd want to move to, it's Fairbanks. Cost of living is ridiculously expensive up there though (except for gasoline), and while we're sure we could deal with the cold of the winter we aren't sure we could deal with the 3 hour days between November and January. So we stay put.
