Popping in to say Hi.

Well, I’ve been here a little while now so I probably should introduce myself to you all.

Hi, I’m Acaciacath.

I’m from Australia, (living in Darwin), I’m 32 and female. I live with my boyfriend and work in HR doing data management, for which I have no qualifications but am quite good at.

Not sure what else you might want to know, (if anything), but if there is post your questions and I’ll try and get them answered. I’m on dialup in an unreliable service area so it may take some time.

So anyway, don’t expect to see me in GD or the Pit, but I’ll be popping up here and there and hopefully have something useful to contribute to this community.

Cheers,
Acaciacath.

Hello Acaciacath. Be welcome. Enjoy your stay. :slight_smile:

Hm, a very civil self-introduction – it almost makes me feel bad about …

whisks curtain aside with a flourish, revealing a trebuchet and an enormous vat of calamari

Guys! Bring in the goat!

Welcome Acaciacath!

Welcome, Acaciacath.

It seems the welcoming party has already arrived.
I certainly hope you’re not prone to insanity. The things they do could drive the most sensible people insane. Not me, but that’s because I was already insane anyway.

Now, who’s chanting, who’s holding the goat, & who’s playing the drum?
The last Initiation was so screwed up.

Don’t worry, Acaciacath honey!
Just close your eyes, & try to go to your Happy Place.

And I do mean “try to”. :eek:

Dibs on the drum! I’ve still got … marks … all over my legs from having to be calamari herder last time.

Boat… coat… emote… float… note… rote… tote… zygote… Nope, no goat today. Sorry. Maybe goat tomorrow.

Welcome, Acaciacath, to the boards!

Hi Acaciacath. I hope you weren’t too troubled by Cyclone Ingrid last week.

Hurrah! Another member! Welcome! :slight_smile:

Welcome to our playground. Beware of the crazies, unless you are one!

I’ve got the lime Jell-o! glances at own post count

I mean…ummm. Look, over there! A diversion! runs

Acaciacath sounds so… innocent.

  • Sees Sunspace, twickster, Kythereia sneaking up on her.
    I just can’t watch this. :eek:

Welcome Acaciacath! Just close your eyes, and ignore everything you hear!
:stuck_out_tongue:

I’m more worried about this party than I ever was about Cyclone Ingrid!

Goats? Calamari? Trebuchet? I don’t even know what a trebuchet is. Googles :eek:

I don’t think I really want to know what combination these are used in, although I’ll mention the goat to my boyfriend, he’d like a goat. For the farm. Actually he’d also like the trebuchet and the calamari. Maybe he should sign up instead. :slight_smile:

I think I’m going to join VampyChick and run.

stamps foot There’s never a cyclone when you actually want one!

An Aussie running from a goat?

There is a joke in there somewhere.

:smiley:

Welcome to the boards. You will be assilimated. Say goodbye the The Rest of Your Life. Enjoy your stay!

I think we should all be thankful there is no running towards the goat. Yet. :eek:

No – no running – we’ve found it works much better to sidle up to the goat, perhaps whistling a bit of a tune, and definitely pretending to look elsewhere.

Welcome, Acaciacath!

You guys named a cyclone after my cousin? :confused:
:slight_smile:

Don’t worry about what the others said.

There are no goats. The trebuchet is a fantasy. The lime jello is just a rumour. The calamari is ‘under control’. The chanting and drumming is just a school band practising. The so-called ‘ritual’ is just a party. The police haven’t been called at all.

There. All happy. :wink:

AW C"MON, Acaciacath!
Give us a merry tune! :smiley:

Welcome, Acaciacath! Don’t let the initiation party scare you off!

Acaciacath, don’t let the others frighten you. slipping on a shower cap and latex gloves Everything is going to be juuuuust fiiine…

(smooch Welcome! ;))
