2. Online IS
real life.

It's the same as watching TV, or reading a book, listening to music or talking on the telephone.

All part of real life.

4. In order to have a fiancee, you would have to be either lovable or rich.
There is no future Mrs. CStheT.

14. I have real friends, but they are all out of town
Edited on Tue Aug-10-04 11:37 PM by tigereye
or shlepping their kids to different camps than the ones my kid goes to. I think you can still have your "real" life. I think DU enhances my real life. Like me telling my husband about Byron and Al's quickly annulled marriage - or your impending marriage.( Hopefully not to Al.) Maybe you guys need a special night out. My sweetie and I try to have those periodically. C'mon now, go out dancing or to see some of that great jazz she introduced you to.! :)

15. Everything is great between us - she is just wary of "talking" to people
I'll probably never meet. I called her a ludite. She called me a tool. We laughed. I just thught y'all'd appreciate her views :)

23. Well I don't know that I will meet any of you nice
rock and roll/ jazz/ progressive folk, although it would be cool if I did, but I still enjoy "talking" to you all about music, etc. and hearing what you have to say. I used to tease my husband all the time about spending so much time on line (plus he's a software guy), and now he teases me about this and says the shoe is on the other foot! ;)And I probably would have been seen as somewhat of a Luddite in the past.

27. well I know I like her taste in jazz!
I talk to people for a living, so I am always interested in talking to new people.... my sister is trying to get me to go to Philly next weekend to see Bernard Allison. (blues guy) Wish I could go to NYC to see some jazz, haven't been there in a long time. We need a Du jazz junket or a DU jazz cruise. ( personally I am not a cruise person, but for good jazz, and good is the operative word here, I would probably make an exception.)

19. She gets Matcom news delivered via this delivery boy on a daily base
Rest assured.

If she knew how much time I spend messing with Hedges there'd be drama in the CStheT household :)
