I guess the internet does this to people, or maybe it's just having people who will understand what you're saying listening to what you say. I believe Steve had something to say about this right at the beginning of The Body.
Me? I go on and on in here, but am much more difficult to engage in "real life."
I suppose it's because there's far less chance of an adverse reaction in a place like this.
The worst I've gotten since I came back here is "You know what they say about opinions . . . "
Which is kind of funny, if you take a minute to consider what a forum without opinions would look like.
What makes you feel like you are difficult to engage in real life? I love meeting people who build walls around themselves... seriously. I carry a little gem pick and pick away at the wall.. because what you find behind the wall is usually so interesting and wonderful to know.I guess the internet does this to people, or maybe it's just having people who will understand what you're saying listening to what you say.

Yo Leif, if the wifey keeps bugging you about all the time you spend here, lend her one of your SK novels to help her understand. Problem solved, everyone's happy. You can thank me later. 
Ok, I thought there was more but here's the list. Funny stuff. Thanks again for the warm welcome. Looking forward to participating further.

This is actually kind of funny. I caught a nasty bug from some kid at the library last week and spent all weekend stuffed up like a mushroom cap. Sunday morning I specifically remember thinking:
If feels like Red snuck in a bunch of rock hammers and the people who live inside my head have finally started tunneling out.
I find your post very perceptive, Audra, because what it boils down to is that -- like most people -- I have something of an ego. Without getting too specific, I am arrogant enough to believe that the unfortunate things that seem to keep happening to some of the people who dare to stand near me actually has something to do with me.
So, yes . . . I build walls. I tell myself that they are there to protect you from me, but that's beyond silly.
It's to keep you from hurting me.
The joke, of course, being that I've reached a point in my life where a little bit of pain would feel mighty fine . . . if there were anybody left with the time and the desire to inflict it.
This is what I will mean if you ever catch me talking about god's sense of humor.
You intrigue me. I admittedly pay attention to your conversations, with pick in hand of course!
I've been told I inspire a lot of people.
Although I'm not sure inspiring people to take a wide berth is necessarily a good thing.
