I got into work early - ask me anything
Whilst getting into work at any time is a pretty crappy thing - this does mean that I can leave early, and so by 5 p.m. I will almost certainly be sitting in my garden drinking gin, and soaking up the sun. :woohoo:

3. I'm not
It's far too warm for a kilt.

I've only worn one a couple of times, and both were evening events; besides I'm down in England now and would get odd looks wearing one.

You're only deranged because you're interested in me; I find that totally inexplicable.

7. nope.
I'm only deranged because I hang out on a message board at 5 in the morning posting to people that I have never met.
Serious note-I am actually a people person. I love to be around people and hear/read what they have to say. And it's even funnier if I throw someone off-guard. So,if I ever make you uncomfortable let me know. It can come off funny on a message board.

And yes, it probably is too warm for a kilt.

So, next subject...

8. It's nigh-on impossible to make me feel uncomfortable on-line
(Take that as a challenge if you wish.)

I'm a far more open person on-line than in real-life (terribly straight-laced, stiff upper lipped &c.).

9. I tend to be more controlling in real life too.
I have a facade that I present to the public, a completely different face in private and yet something else online.
You can post things online that you might never say in public and feel free to get away w/ them because-well, just because. You know that chances are pretty darn good that you will never run into this person in public. It can be almost liberating.

10. I'm sure that you're still as charming nevertheless
I find that I'm slightly different within different groups - but I always do my best to be honest (which I have managed on D.U. far more than some places).

4. I'm usually one of the slackers
And I'm slacking loads now that I'm here as well.

5. I enjoy the peace of getting early.
And of course leaving early, too. :-)

6. I love it too
Especially on Thursdays as I only have one office-mate then, and she tends to arrive at about half past nine. It's just trying to convince my body of how lovely it would be when I'm still laying in bed.
