I'm in.

Well, I'm here. Trying to find my voice on internet. It is hard for me to grasp that we now live in a society where I need to go to the internet to connect with people.

It couldn't be that I endure severe anxiety when even thinking about having to talk to people in social situations; No, it couldn't be that.

But now that I am sitting here , thinking about it, I can't believe it took me so long. This is a perfect medium for those of us who come off as jackasses when having conversations with someone they just met. I can simply delete my first thoughts, and try again. Perfect! No more stumbling trying to come up with the right word, or having a brain freeze in the middle of a thought. Oh no. I will never do that again.

Next time I am invited out to socialize, I'll be sure to ask, 'Is it okay if I just IM it in?'.
