COMING UP: Alcohol poisoning!
XD
My way of dealing with shyness is obviously humungously healthy.
It's very strange meeting so many new people. The fact that I've been talking to most of them for over a year is at war with the fact that I've never met them face to face, so my mood and confidence levels are fluctuating like mad. And there are people I want to hole up in a corner with and converse with, but we'll be at a con (a proper CON! With SCEDULED ACTIVITIES! Which, okay, holy crap...) and that's antisocial and rude. There're people I already have to talk to more on AIM though, and I think I'm gonna have to make a list since I'm incapable of remembering things like a normal person.
Thing about me: my memory is actually horrific. I lose things regularly, I forget (mid-AIM conversation) who I'm talking to and accidentally wander off, I never remember to finish memes or when I'm supposed to RP things, and even if I wanted to I am incapable of holding a grudge since I can never remember what they did until I think about it. And I don't want to think about it, mostly. The point? Please don't be offended if I forget your name/who you play. :D?
Thank all that's vaguely sanctified for namebadges, that's all I can say.
Anyway, HUGE amounts of luck and love to
indy_go and
chaos_pockets, for very different reasons.
*hugs carefully*

So go with the flow, and I'll see you on Thursday. And now I can get all Daniel Day-Lewis in Last of the Mohicans: "I WILL FIND YOU!" And I'm very looking forward to meeting you. In a nice, flowing, mellow way, because that's kind of what I'm like.
