Here goes nothing

stonebenderWhat the hell am I doing with another, blog/journal/community networking/whatever the hell else account? As we used to say in Southern Illinois University Science Fiction Society, I am a herd creature.
If I've done this right this post was written on and I. She invites me to play a game I make the first move, don't check for a few days and then forget how to get back to that game. I am a bit amused at the people who identify as my friends. There are several people who I consider leaders in the disability community in the Bay Area, who appear to know who I am which shocks me.
I have reconnected with some old friends. (If you count getting a notification to approve a friendship then typing something like, "Hey there X! How have you been? Welcome to Facebook" getting a reply of high and then nothing.) Too many of the games I don't really get the point of even though I go ahead and play them anyway.
Then there is OKCupid. Which mostly makes me uncomfortable. The whole sort of looking for dates aspect I think kills most possibilities I would have at meeting or conversing with people there. I suppose I could say I'm just looking for friendship but I'm not exactly looking, but I'm not not looking. So I don't know what I'm supposed to do and therefore do very little.
I know I signed up for a bunch of others. I have a blogger account where I had hoped to start a real disability politics blog, but have so far failed. Others are: 6 degrees, Plaxo, MyTribe that's all I can think of right now. Those last few I think it's been years since I looked at any of them. Not even sure if I could get on them anymore.
No idea what I'm doing with this one. It may be where I do most of my posting because there seems to be an easy cross post feature then I could update most of the sites I care about with little effort.
