Hello.. I'm the new kid in the lunch room

[LiaPDX]

Hello, I'm Lia..

*adjusts name tag*

I am not a fan of kittens, I've never worn Crocs and football bores me.

*waits for tomatoes*

OK so while that's all true, I'm totally cool with people who have kittens that wear Crocs while watching football. I embrace diversity.

I'm a femme.. bigtime. I fling skirts and shirts all over the place while trying to find the perfect thing to wear with the heels I adore. I fuss over my hair, adore Chanel and firmly believe Julia Sugarbaker should have been my mother. That really has nothing to do with anything, I just had to put it out there.

I'm also a nerd.

I'm so invisible to the community that I'm often considered the sweet girl next door that the boys just don't visit... *aw, that poor girl needs a date* .. I'm sure that's what the neighbors must think, though I'm not sure how they can miss that big pride sticker on the back of my vehicle. Or the fact I used to kiss my ex roommate (AKA ex wife) ..

Hippos frighten me. Again, a sentence that has nothing to do with anything, just random personal trivia.

Lovely to meet you all

Welcome to the Planet, I'm sure there will be a few things that scare you here but for the most part there will be a lot of good things you find here.

Welcome to the Planet. We have a lot in common. While I do like kittens, I think Crocs are the most VILE invention ever. But, I do like football-well maybe because I place interesting bets on the games ;)

I sometimes feel invisible in the LGBT (although the gay boys seem to love me) but ultimately learned that I often intimidate so I guess that creates a barrier around me that few are willing to see past. It is their loss though.

I am an ultra-femme and a born & bred Southern Belle but amazingly, I am not high maintenance. Yes, I have lots of shoes and make-up etc but like to go out "natural" aka "incognito." If the stars can do it then I can. Oh and like any true Southern Belle, my words are always sweet but my tone can be venom (or vice versa as the situation demands). I am often called "charmingly bitchy."

I am not scared of hippos but I once was a bad mom & lied to my kids that I am scared of monkeys & robots. It was an effort to get out of watching an over abundance of kid movies and that scheme worked. Now they think my fears are funny and I still hate to watch certain kid movies so I allow those "fears" to remain.

All that being said-I hope you enjoy your time here. There is at least one person here who you may have a lot in common with.

;)
