addendum, 04-11-08: text is a horrible medium for meeting people unless you happen to be very much alike to begin with… seeing as i am already admitting to my alien nature (heh) you can imagine the outcomes are often quite confusing for me. suffice to say contact continues and i remain a kitten with a string. we’ll how or if it unfolds… in other news…
