@Lore: That chair sounds downright annoying. There's no table or couch you could go to?

Vix Viral:

No, if I want to be able to be online. The wireless signal isn't all that great in the house. I have pretty limited options. As long as I keep adjusting and readjusting it's not too bad.

Vix: I'm actually right in the middle of a major depressive episode and haven't been doing well for the past few days. I am going to be calling for therapy as of tomorrow, but who knows when they'll be able to get me in. In the mean time, I might be starting a job. Having money will be a welcome change.

Sorry to hear about the effects of the drunken shenanigans. Hope it was worth it. ^^;

Scribbled: I would really like to see such a hangout and wouldn't mind posting regularly there. My concern is that the feedback would be primarily negative and narrow minded. I don't look forward to that part.

@Lore: I just hope you don't hurt your back.

Vix Viral:

It's far too late to be worrying about my back. :XD It was compromised years ago and I'm more concerned about being comfortable to really care about the long term effects.

Corporate Zombie:

Yeah.. but it's going to happen eventually. I mean, you can't run from it for forever. I'm hoping one of the two budding friendships I have on OKC develop into something more, if given enough time and effort.

@Zombie: I'm sorry to hear that, love. One of my best friends has been going through a tough time herself lately - I actually had to keep her on the phone while she drove home today to make sure she didn't act on her urges to plow the truck into a tree. Life is just a shitstorm from time to time, you know? I'm glad you've got a job on the way, with the economy the way it is, that's no easy feat!

As for my ridiculous night, it absolutely was. Another one of my best friends finally turned 21 on Thursday so we threw a party for him and basically went insane. I haven't had that much to drink in a good six months.

----------

@Lore: Haha, that sounds like something I'd say.

Good luck with the prospective love interests! :)

Vix Viral:

Aw, thanks. :) I'm glad to hear the party was worth it! What's your favorite drink? I have a soft spot for Kahlua and milk with chocolate chip cookies.

Corporate Zombie:

If we did start such a hangout what kind of information do you think we should include?

Scribbled: I'm not sure. Do we want it to be a hangout for poly people or an educational thread for non poly people?

Vix: I appreciate your input. Unfortunately, there is relatively little going wrong in my life. (It sounds funny, I know, but I would feel a lot better if I had reason to be breaking down every day.) It appears to all be in my head.

Crap, that sounded bad. :sweat:

Thanks for the donation outfit. I apreciate it. I finally got tired of my nakedness, and when i found the sack, and it was only 40G, I was like "eff it" and shelved my vanity. lol.

Why can't you make a thread for both. If there were a bunch of newbs at a poly hangout, I assume it would get a bit annoying for the people who want a place to chill and not explain their life (again). BUT the Newbs need a place to ask their questions, ya know?

@Lore: Whatever tastes yummy mainly, though I have a soft spot for fruity drinks.

@Zombie: Well depression is generally linked to chemical imbalances in the brain so you can't help feeling that way and you definitely shouldn't ever feel guilty about feeling the way that you do.

I'm one of those people that just dislikes dating/relationships in general. Is there a term for that?

Corporate Zombie:

It is all in your head but in a valid and real way. In that sense your MDD is no different from my bipolar disorder.

A little bit of both? I mean, we could at least cover the 101 level information and provide links.

I see an Amaya! w00t! Look at my gold count - I am way closer to buying you a new outfit. I'm, like, halfway there now. This is exciting. *loves giving things away to people online*

The little one took forever to get to sleep tonight. I hate missing the magic sleepy time window. *looks at gold count* Stop spending gold on me! (continue to spend gold on me. I like having a sugar mama. lol)

Amaya Kumiko:

Oh, you're right - I have attained sugar mama status. :shock:

Vix Viral:

You know, I don't know. I was going to say "asexual" but I know there are asexual people who have romantic relationships without sex being involved.

----------

Brb, everyone, I need to go feed Spawn.

Vix: I am well aware of that. I just feel better if I have a reason to be upset. XD

You and Scribbled are a lot alike. She won't drink if she can taste the alcohol. Which means she is most definitely not the cheap kind of date (not that we've ever been on any dates).

I'm not sure what you would call that. I almost said asexual, too, but those are not the same. I am stumped!

Amaya: Yay, you're online! We were wondering when you would pop up.

@CZ:I'm going to pop out in an hour or so. Today was a long one for some reason.

@Vix lets call it vix-sexual. That works. :)

Amaya: Oh noes! Scribbled will be greatly distressed by this. Here, we have been pining after your company all day.

@Lore: Oh it's not that, I don't have a problem with sexual activity so long as I'm comfortable with a person which rarely happens but that's due to trust issues which is another story. I just have a hard time handling commitment. I like to be able to do what I want, when I want, how I want, with whoever I want without having someone trying to keep tabs on me or insisting that they need to see me every day. My last boyfriend dumped me because he felt that he didn't see me enough despite knowing that I worked and had eight classes but apparently me visiting him at his college a few times a week wasn't good enough. Boy's lucky I never complained about him coming to see me or all the money I spent bringing him his favorite coffee every time I was going over.

@Zombie: Well, you do have a reason, it's just a mystery! :)

Well, I don't mind tasting a little alcohol so long as it's not gross. I mean, I do shots and junk, I just chase them with soda afterward so I don't have a disgusting taste left in my mouth haha.

@Amaya: I like the way that sounds :lol:

@CZ I'm felling better after drinking 2 glasses of water. I have been having headaches all day. Since I'm still a chrysalis for a little person, I only allowed myself two Tylenol. Apparently I was just dehydrated. >_<

@Vix Glad i could be of some service.

Brb walking Tucker

Vix Viral:

It seems like you'd be a good candidate for some form of non-monogamy. *shrugs* What you described as your ideal is very close to what CZ and I have going on. I guess I'd just suggest reading a book or two by Dossie Eaton, particularly The Ethical Slut, if you haven't already.

Amaya Kumiko

Today was kind of long for us too. Spawn's two top front teeth almost broke through his gums today and he was really distressed by the whole ordeal. He was a very unhappy baby.

@ Scrib Awww poor bubby. If he's still distressed tomorrow, give him a flavor ice. You know, the ice'd tubes of koolaid? Mine liked to knaw on the outside of one. I hope tomorrow is better.

Amaya Kumiko:

That is a capital idea! We'll have to ask for some of those on Spawn's behalf.

Scribbled: We already have some popsicles in the clear plastic tubes. They're in the freezer outside. Do you think those would work?

Vix: I think you may be right. Although, when it was explained to me by a therapist, the chemical imbalance issues of depression and bipolar disorder seemed really simple. Not simple to fix, but simple to understand. No, definitely not simple to fix. XD

Amaya Kumiko:

Can I get an honest opinion? I'd like to know how intimidating/scary my OKC profile is.

Corporate Zombie:

We do? Huh, I don't know. I'll check later - don't let me forget.

Edit: I just realized that I don't know if you can see OKC profiles without being logged in. If you can't let me know, Amaya.

CZ: Dude. these things. whatever you have that is the equivalent should work.
