RaiscaraAvalon Yes. I am the same online as I am offline, though I'm sure there would still be many differences, as one cannot see expressions or even get tone through online only conversation. Would I be nervous? Nah, unless we were meeting at my house! ;)

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85135) • Shingle Springs, California 13 Dec 11

So I'm sitting here, actually on myLot for a change, looking at my status in the top 10 (number of posts) and thinking how I'm going to be passed up by more people soon because I can't get on here during the day any more. And...

RaiscaraAvalon There is quite a bit I don't miss about the 'old Mylot', like the ridiculous discussions started. Seems to me that there are better discussions started, and more real answers vs 'just trying to get my money' answers. I haven't been back all that long, nor have...

RaiscaraAvalon Yes a man and a woman can have a purely platonic relationship. I have a male friend like that, there is no interest in 'other' activities at all. On either end. He is my best friend. ;) Of course not all male/female relationships are like that. And yes, a man...

RaiscaraAvalon Oh yes, a laptop is definitely a necessity for me. I have a desktop PC, but also need a laptop for when I can't sit at my desk. I do most of my work on a computer, so I need both due to several health issues that make it difficult to stay in one spot too long....

Christmas Presents; Money or Wrapped Gifts, which do you prefer?

PalePurple @PalePurple (157) • Philippines 16 Dec 11

Christmas is a time where people give and receive presents. Sometimes people even have wish lists of what they wanted to receive. Even though you sometimes wished for a gift, it sometimes turned out that it is not the right gift...

RaiscaraAvalon I prefer both, depending on the situation. If someone buys me something I've asked for, then I prefer wrapped gifts. But otherwise I prefer money or a gift card so I can buy what I want. Usually I'm in the money or gift card side of the argument, because most...

RaiscaraAvalon I do both. I listen to what my friend has to say, so that I know whether to give advice or just a hug. A lot of times I spend my talking time either giving advice or asking questions to lead them to their own answers. Or I'm giving encouragement, depending on...

RaiscaraAvalon I turned off all but the daily digest. :) So I only get 1 email per day just about. Sure I miss a lot of discussions that way, but right now I'm so busy with other things that MyLot has kind of taken a step back. I get about a hundred emails a day easily, so...

RaiscaraAvalon Randy Rhodes, hands down. He may be dead, but I think there are very few guitarists living today who can touch him.

RaiscaraAvalon A man only does what he wants to honey. Sure, give him the chance to discuss the issues you are having in the relationship, but be prepared to walk. He could have some important reasons for delaying things, but from the looks of things, it could very well be...

RaiscaraAvalon @RaiscaraAvalon (250) • United States 3 Aug 10

I have absolutely no concept of time. I know that days pass, mostly due to the fact that there is light then it is dark, but after that I have no concept of the fact that a week has passed, or a month, or even a year! It causes me...

RaiscaraAvalon Without batting an eye. I'd rather never eat a vegetable again then not eat meat again. I have issues with the cleaning aspects of it, mostly because I refuse to touch anything dead until a decent amount of time has passed. But if I absolutely had to do it, I...

RaiscaraAvalon I very rarely take medications of any sort, unless there is no way around it. I'll use other methods before I have to take a pill, either relaxation, laying down, wet compress, drinking water, eating something, making myself a tea or tincture. Medication is...
