“Asshat query: do your friends and families know you post? Do they know your nom de brownstoner? How much do you mix your real and cyber lives (to the extent you have real ones)?”
‘I know you, you know me’ via text. My persona is one that ‘doesn’t kave a point of view’ and ‘all these places have their moments’ and will not be mixed.

My husband knows I post and he knows my log-in name as it’s the same one I use elsewhere. He’ll read it if I ask him to check out something but usually he just rolls his eyes. His interests lie elsewhere.
I don’t mix the two at all to the extent that you’ll never see me at the gatherings. I prefer to remain anonymous to those of you I don’t already know.
However, The person behind Townhouselady is real and is not a made up persona. Anything I say about myself is honest. I don’t heighten or exaggerate. This is my real personality and anything I say here I’d say in the real world. Don’t feel because you haven’t met me in public you don’t know me. You know me very well.
I had 2 people I know recognize me from the info (one from Bklyn and one from JC) I’ve given out about myself. They respect my desire to remain anonymous and would never let on to anyone that they know me personally.
that’s a great idea, jessibaby (and if I didn’t say so before, it was a pleasure meeting you the other night!).
I know you worry about your dog rob- but he’s old, right? Maybe you could plan for a year or two from now. But in hte meantime you could contact NYCares or find a place to do volunteer work, like an animal shelter. It would do you good.
You get $5,500 as a resettlement allowance after your service. Also, there are a ton of scholarships for returned volunteers, so you could go to grad school when you were finished.
rob- having done the same thing and come to pretty much the same conclusions on design shows I utterly sympathize. But don’t feel rotten about your life- you’ve done so much to make it better- we talked about this the other night- and until you appreciate who you are ( and you should) and how far you’ve come, life won’t get better.
Come over to Crown Heights on Saturday June 27th from 1 – 6. CNHA’s having a bbq and art show in the bergen street garden. I’ll buy your ticket- the food will be great and there’ll be lots of good people.
It’s Open to everyone- except the buying ticket part 🙂 I’d love to but can’t afford all you people! But they’re only $10.00
i dont know jessi. i actually wouldnt have anyone to take care of my dog really. and then no place or job to come back to when i came back. sounds a little too scary to me.
I talk to the TV as well Rob, all the time. It’s a bad habit I picked up from my parents. Don’t watch HGTV though.

‘you know my name’
Yes, bxgrl, it was great to meet you, too. And I second your endorsement of NY Cares.

He could also enlist. That’s what I did.
