I got involved initially by taking a theatre course at the community college. I happened to catch the eye of someone that was involved in a local Improv group and he invited me down for auditions. I have never had an easier time integrating with a group and don't expect it to ever be that easy...

It's also much easier to declare something a failure without trying than it is to actually try and (maybe) succeed. I've failed at a lot of things that I've tried, but I've failed at ALL of the things that I haven't.

Only if you let it be. :)

:) No problem, I totally get it. The proverbial "Jack of all trades, master of none" sort of thing...but I'm getting a little better :) Most of what's listed above are either past interests or things that are indefinitely on the back burner...I was just giving you some ideas of what has/hasn't...

Since I'm between jobs right now I actually have more going on than usual...all the extra time/energy etc. I'm relearning programming (C++ to start, probably QT to follow) Learning Spanish (Duolingo is phenomenal, decent community) If I manage to learn it, I'll certainly move onto others. I...

I think that's more or less the case everywhere, and honestly I think it's because everyone is afraid of being alone. The world is a big scary place and for most people, having someone to share the misery with is the only thing that makes life bearable. I never bought into that crap, even as a...

I'm a little different, but not by a lot. I'm married, for one, so not "alone" in that sense, although in the sense of relatability or "being alone with other people" she definitely fits the bill. I'm also prone to distance myself from the people involved in the same...

I wouldn't go with any of the Stable Debian branches for anything on your PC - you'll find that there are an awful lot of updated packages that aren't available for Debian and you'll get yourself stuck in dependency hell pretty quickly. The *buntu flavors are usually considerably more current...

I hadn't intended to reply to this, but I saw your pic and I wanted to say: You're a beautiful woman. From what I've gleaned from your posts though I do have a few suggestions. "Clean your own house first". You said that you know that you have a drinking problem. If you really have a...

Right now, my husky Aspen. Should "Same Question" really be considered a valid question? :D

This morning When was the last time you smiled because someone else was happy?

Yes, a few. Won anything?

Steak. Walk or drive?

Yes. Have you ever met a "Brent" or "Brand" that wasn't a complete tool?

There's no doubt that they will go in that direction in the states as well...at which point I'll make the same decision I made re: the cable companies - I'll close my account and find another hobby :p

Yeah, I don't usually get too hung up about my age. My wife used to throw a fit EVERY BIRTHDAY like it was a crisis that she could do something about. My efforts to convince her age didn't really matter more or less convinced me nice and early :p

40 in about 20 days...that counts, right?

No, a Malwarebytes scan will not "harm" your computer, but there is a very small grain of truth to what he said. It's ridiculous, but it's there. When you run a full scan you are causing your hardware to work harder, which has an extremely nominal effect on how long your hardware will last...

This is precisely the reason I started doing "other things". If I'm not interested in pubs, what am I interested in? I didn't know. I'd spent about 30 years trying to avoid doing anything...so I started doing stuff. So far, I thoroughly enjoy camping and traveling abroad. I enjoy walking...

...but despite all that, I consider myself pretty successful in the "friends" department. Let's back up a bit so you can catch up - may as well want to grab yourself a cuppa and settle in, because I have a tendency to be long-winded (although (hopefully) entertaining) and, well, you started...
