Are We a Virtual Sitting Room?
e-Quips 
Ya that’s somehow true. I feel that I’ve been healed when I interact with the people of this platform.
In case I forgot, Happy new year, Luisa. Best wishes.

I think it is normally a wonderful feeling. A few people seem to have an odd sense of what their rights are when commenting on somebody else’s blog. Thanks for commenting, Tanishq. Happy New Year to you also.

I would be honored. Thanks for the thought. I actually copied it from a comment that Luisa left on one of my posts and thought it deserved it’s own star billing. I think t hat Brothers Campfire inspires such a feeling.

I’ve got cardoman flavored green tea, would that do? Would you like it spliced with some honey rye?

The world of WordPress that I belong to is, thankfully, like social media without the toxic diatribe. I hope you and Luisa feel the same 🙂

I get along really well with all my WordPress friends above all those with whom I interact habitually. I consider them true friends. even if virtual, but here ‘virtual’ has only positive connotations, and is not a substitute for reality

I normally do. Just a few that think if you’re not 100 percent in agreement you’re against them or it is their right to comment anyway they feel even if the rant would be more appropriate as a topic on their own blog. Thanks for commenting, Malc. I’m not referring to you.

I enjoyed this sentiment and this image. Do we get to pick one of the characters sitting around the campfire? I want to be the guy in front with the blond dreads, black flared pants, and black jacket with the popped collar. That’s style!

Very cool. This is actually a picture taken a few years ago in Second Life. Most of those avatars are librarians–many are no longer in SL I don’t know who the avatar with the blonde dreads is. You have good taste.

You Second Life librarians are pretty stylish. I would pick either the blond dreads or the blue pixie cut

I could picture you rocking the blue pixie cut (and I have never seen anything but your dog picture) but your personality strikes me as someone who could go edgy.

😁 This might be among my favorite compliments that I have ever received. In real life, I am a very boring looking person. I’ve actually toyed with dying my hair crazy highlights or ombre – think bright red or purple- but I was job-hunting so I never did it.

You’re welcome JYP. I keep my hair it’s original shade because my eyebrows are still dark. If I were to grow my hair out (very tedious process) I could then dye the gray a fun color.
