Introduce Yourself
#1

Hey guys,

I'm not sure yet if Keene is my destination in New Hampshire, but I am an FSP signer. I'm migrating over here from the FTL bbs because, now having signed the Shire Society Declaration, I feel like I'm inevitably going to become a part of this community in some capacity, where as the FTL bbs is more or less entertainment for me.

Moving may still be a long way off. My wife doesn't want to move far away from her parents. But we've agreed that California is not the place to raise children, so in the event we get pregnant that will step things up. I think employment is the real hurdle. She loves her job, and currently earns more than me.

My full time work is as a graphic designer. On the side I am an artist, which is my primary agorist work. I'm also the SF Muslim Examiner at Examiner.com. Here's my Shire Society Declaration coverage: The Genesis of the Shire Society

I think I'll be going by my real name in this forum. The icon gives away the FTL bbs connection.

those were so beautiful.  i was really excited the seal i made done by hand.  thank goodness i had a computer, cause it wouldn't have turned out well otherwise :wink:

we have some stuff to send you as a thank you… it's not nearly enough to show my appreciation, but it's something.

hope to be seeing you in the free state soon!

Where are you in CA? Maybe we can meet up. There's a Bay Area Voluntarist meet up on the 17th if your near San Jose.

I would love to meet up but unfortunately I am in the other end of the state, 400 miles south of San Jose. But I do appreciate the invitation. :slight_smile:
