I've been here for about six months now and this is the first online community I've ever been involved with. When I first joined I submitted a couple of stories and dove in here without any understanding of online etiquette. I posted some, started some silly threads and some more thoughtful threads, managing to avoid the dreaded "How until long..." question along the way. Since I've been here I've noticed a number of people formally introducing themselves. So...

I'd like to be as open as many of you, but because of my job I just don't feel I can be (though clues get dropped unless we're hermits, eh?). Having said that, I'm East coast, have recently been receiving AARP mailings (old fart club for those of you not familiar) but look and feel younger than I am (really!). Been married many good years, have a son in his first year of high school and a daughter in her first year of college. And a dog that's getting visibly older as the days go by.

As I said, I just dove in and have met and talked to many wonderful people in my short time here. So, this is my formal "Hello." I try to be respectful and I thank you all for for your kindness and acceptance. I certainly look forward to more fun here.

No pressure to respond; this is my thanks to all of you. Many of you have been here long enough so there is no need, but for some, if you never introduced yourself feel free to do so - if you want.

ooh, salsa! Any guacamole?

Right next to the salsa. And ignore the kids running around yelling, "Looks like guacamole but it's not." ;)
 
We joined up around the same time...hey that means I've been here 6 months too :eek:
I really need to get a life.

:kiss: I did just about the same thing, this is the second forum I've ever been involved in. Didn't really introduce myself here either. Good to formally meet you. :rose:

I have been here less time than you, jomar. I didn't come to the AH until My first story was out, which was less than 3 months ago.
((Sad to say, I too know about those nasty AARP mailings. ;) :rose: ))

So here is a "Hello" to you from Me. :)
 
Howdy jomar.

A belated welcome from me to the AH.

And welcome to the 'Old Fart Club' too. :D
 
I can't welcome you because you were here first, but I will say hello and send you a hug. :catroar:

moon, drksideof.... :D

Come to think of it, I never introduced myself either...
And most of us were grateful. :)

But seriously folks, it's a new trend. One of those touchy-feel-good deals. Kind of like holding hands in church with a total stranger.

Bayou Bill :cool:
