There's this one guy, Jack, very handsome [looks like Joe montana]recently single, just started dating a woman but he has not told her that he is a nudist yet. If she is not receptive, he will be single again. I have been trying for 12 years to get him to stop dating barracudas and start dating a nice woman. Maybe that's you?


Well, I'm flattered : ) Thanks

I dont want to go nude myself, but I don't mind other people doing it. That's not to say that I'm a huge fan of clothes. I am very picky about fabric and texture as my skin is so sensitive. I only wear underwear on formal occasions and always loose fitting clothes. And never ever ever turtlenecks - torture.

Sounds like a swell place, Vicky.

Are you strict as far as dietary things are concerned?

Alas, I'm not--I'm a meat-and-potatoes type.

Well, I got a job interview. Tomorrow morning. For a part time receptionist/trainee position at a dog groomer's. Fingers crossed. I will try not to be too freaked out, although I know I will be. It would be a great opportunity to learn the trade without having to go to school.
And my meeting went well with the intake lady. She is going to call me tomorrow with a referral to a psychiatrist, plus group counselling. She was supportive. It's much better talking to mental health workers since I got diagnosed.

Thanks : )
Interviews are stressful not only because you're being evaluated, but also because you're dealing with unfamiliar people in an unfamiliar environment. I've had some really great ones and some really awful ones. Either way, it's nice to get a response.
If I actually got this I would be getting paid to brush dogs. I'm not sure I could get a better opportunity. 'Course there's always the human element, which tends to be my downfall.

I have a job interview Thursday. For a theatre job. I feel optimistic, for once. If only cautiously, that is.

I feel exactly the same.
