I don't think I've introduced myself

I just realised that I've never actually introduced myself...

Well, I'm Welsh born and bred. I met my wife through a casual ICQ chat at 2:15 in the morning for me. It was 9:15 PM for her. I'd been doing some late night computer programming and was just too tired to go to bed so I chatted for a while. That's how it all started - just a casual chat. I thought I was chatting to another man and then she blew my socks off by announcing 2 weeks later than she was a woman. I blew her socks off at the same time by announcing I was a man. Neither of us had any reason to believe we were any specific gender - we'd just made assumptions. We laughed at that for weeks and our friendship blossomed. She came to see me and I went to stay with her. Then we got married in 2005.

In 2007 I started my own business. I'm now a photographer in Columbia, South Carolina. She's a dentist.

I'm currently trying to build my customer base. Thus far all I've had is enquiries and vague hints about bookings. Come Thursday I'm hitting the street during rush hour with my placards :D

Hello and welcome aboard !

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
