Introduction

edited July 2011 in All Encompassing Trip
I don't know if people normally introduce themselves but I feel really weird just jumping in. I tried for a while and I feel like the weird girl at a party who just walks up and jumps in the conversation. My name is Emily. I live in a small town in Missouri. I think we hold the record for being the most boring town in the universe. I grew up in Orlando and miss home like crazy. I am married with 4 kids. I have been a huge PJ fan from the moment I heard Alive for the first time when I was in 6th or 7th grade. I was trying to think of something else interesting to say but I have become very boring and ordinary. Damn you rural midwest!

    Hey there! :wave:
    No kids, and sorry, but I actually grew up in a great area (Queens,NY)
    Yep, just jump into conversations. Everyone is friendly and cool.
    Have fun!

    Hi!

    I'm Unlost and I wrest all kinds of nailbiter stories out of my otherwise mundane existence!

    I'm sure you will, too.

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I don't know what Detroit smells like..does that mean our resident 'very good looking man' smells too? :lol:
    (there is a waste water treatment plant nearby, and it smells especially aromatic on hot days)

    all I know is that it doesn't stink like it does in Tacoma-yeah I'm looking at YOU snow board rider! :lol:

    wiki:
    Beginning in the 1930s, Tacoma became known for the "Tacoma 'roma", a distinctive, acrid odor produced by paper manufacturing on the industrial tide flats. In the late 1990s, Simpson Tacoma Kraft reduced total sulfur emissions by 90%. This largely eliminated the problem; where once the aroma was ever-present, it is now only noticeable occasionally, primarily when the wind is coming from the east.
