But the kids these days...
...don't recognize Usenet.
dogai made an emo journal and I linked him an old thread [1][2] in an attempt to cheer him up.
>> I'm confused
>> What about?
>> what is it exactly? is it a blog or something?
I look at the timestamp and see that when I posted the thing, he was ten years old.
And I realize I've been on the Internet longer than some of you guys watching me have been able to read.
I didn't grow up in the same world most of you did, which is fantastic. Though I haven't really tried to keep up. I don't want to watch your youtube videos. Not really a fan of web forums, unless I can get them in RSS for my mail/newsreader. Don't really need a cell phone. I still have to scroll down through pages of comments on your pictures to find out if anyone said which digimon you drew.
In about six months the odometer'll be flipping over another decade for me. Won't that be fun. ;)
Okay, enough of me being an old fogey. (I was ranting a bit because sometimes I feel so different from everyone else, which doesn't inspire optimism in my search for a life partner. I'm not lonely yet, but...)
I start my "new" job tomorrow. Won't have as much time for my projects and stuff—at least, the ones I have to work on at home.
Here's a sort of reward for those of you who managed to read through all this (or had the common sense to skip to the end) — you can ask me or any of my characters a question, and get an answer... absolutely free.
I love you all.

Other than English and Latin, which other languages do you know?
Also, "The Pit" was the best door game ever.
Most of my elementary and middle school years were C-64 though.
One of our science teachers had a bank of IIgs's in one of his classrooms, and I remember spending many lunch breaks playing Zork Zero...
