Aloha, Board
Welll... Actually, the get together sucked. But i got to see the beautiful and glorious BBWDenver80 again, so it was worth it anyway
... We recognized each other by nametags we all had that had our r/l name and lit handle on them
Sweet lil' one, welcome to the lit message boards and the Colorado board. I wouldn't mind meeting y'all sometime, but I'm only 19 so I probably can't get into the bar. Cool picture though.

Sly, I would never have described you as either 'old' nor 'saggy'. However, the lively conversation is not so bad.
Please keep me posted on the next get together. I sent my regrets prior, so I am off the hook for missing!
I hope those that did show had a great time, sounds like it!
I am curious, how did you set it up before hand that people would recognize each other?
Did anyone brave the weather last night to attend the Matthew Shepard Benefit? I threw on a puffy dress and drove the 2 hours to Denver (it was white-out conditions up north)...it was a very lovely event. I met Matthew's mother, very strong woman. Along with some emerging CO political figures and a handfull of drag queens! Let me know if anyone else was there.
Ok, that's all for me. I am off to explore the Longmont nightlife...as I laugh to myself knowing there is no such thing.
Take care everyone one.
~kisses~

Thank you for that compliment, Lacivious one... You are so sweet. As to how we recognized each other that wasn't too difficult as there was only one or two other people in the whole place. I had a "Hello" tag with my name on it and BBW came right up to us. Fluvius also had a tag (of sorts
and BBW knew him by sight. And we did have a good time, I think.I had not heard about the Matthew Shepard benefit and I really admire you for attending in spite of the lousy weather.
I'm really hoping we can set up another get together soon. There are so many really nice people on this thread that we hope to meet in person... (Especially you and that "puffy dress"... And Cricketbug, of course

Re: oh yeah i forgot slyfox
Why Thank You, Fluvius... I think you're pretty neat yourself and both Gail and I enjoyed meeting you too. And I agree that Barkly does NOT get to pick the place next time - Who want's to meet in a pub catering to the "Green Bay Packers" ??? The staff there was pretty nice though, I must admit...

Re: WOW!!
Welcome "Sweet lil one"... Very nice pic. We won't need "nametags" to recognize YOU if we can get another get together organized. And "Roosters" sounds like as good a place as any to meet. Love the idea of "free pool" (not to mention the possibility of the "skimpy" clothes
)
And btw, I don't like the "agruing" any better than you do. Something just touched an emotional nerve and I uncharacteristically responded a bit more heated than I would normally - My apologies...

Meetings and gatherings
Hello All,
I'm new to the board and to Literotica - have pm'd Laurel and maybe my story can get posted or I will be able to get to the "view" place to check on the status - still - as of today - can't get there from here -
I live in Pueblo and Denver is a three hour drive for me so I probably won't drive while the weather's so bad but I am interested in meeting and knowing where and when the gatherings are. My idea is to meet people of somewhat like mind - at least creative and interested, from what I see, in all kinds of things as well as sex. You people are soooo interesting.
Not to bring up starting-to-heal wounds - I am mature (over 50) not so perfect and have never been to Mon Chalet and might have just backed out of wanting to meet others from Literotica if Sly hadn't spoken up - I can relate to Soylents description - I probably could be described that way - my mind, my feelings and my sex drive haven't diminished because my body has taken a turn for the unpretty. Although that hasn't prevented me from being an active nudist.
Not that I entertain thoughts about jumping into the jeans of those under forty (meaning that I do not expect to be invited for many reasons but that I would probably have more invitations with persons over forty) - but I do like to socialize and relate where I can and learn where I am ignorant, share where I'm knowledgeable - with everyone - regardless of age, gender or anything else - I don't know if I was offended or just flat hurt and put off - I know in a way few do that there are many people with Soylents attitude - I guess I had not encountered it here - It certainly makes me think twice about driving three hours one way -
I have already walked into too many rooms where Soylents attitudes were obviously prevalent. My problem, I'm sure, if I wear my feelings on my sleeve - but my senses help to make me a good writer - regardless of my body.
I'd still like to know about the gatherings - when I do get up the courage, I hope when I arrive I will see all the lovely people I find here - You sound so very interesting and I could probably listen for days to all of your ideas and adventures and all the beautiful things I've seen here. So - please do keep me (and other new people) posted and when the right combination of courage, weather and everything else happens I hope to meet with all of you.
If you could - you might post something like street addresses and phone number and maybe directions for those of us unfamilliar with Denver and no Denver telephone directory - just a suggestion. Thanks -

Welcome Firemoon! I like your suggestion about including the address and phone number of the meeting place. I wasn't able to come to the last meeting but that may have come in handy. I always tend to get lost in Denver so I usually need to print up directions or be able to call the place.

I would just like to say for the record that I take very good care of myself, and I dont think that it is too much to ask in a prospective partner, everyone has thier standards, Im young and fit and successful .I may be considered shallow , and thats okay, but let it be said that I enjoy brains as well as beauty, Id also like to say that if you do not take care of yourself , you can hardly complain when you recieve negative criticism about your body, like it or not Im not the first person to prefer a beautiful in-shape person to an unattractive slob, if you are lazy with your body and personal appearance, then I am compelled to draw the conclusion that the slovenly attitude doesent stop at personal hygiene. (this by the way, is not directed at anyone so please Im not interested in arguing the finer points of the term slob)
As for giving you second thoughts, I apologize for you feeling that way, but it sounds like a personal confidence issue, something I probably had relatively very little to do with, however if it eases your mind, I dont attend "internet parties" not that there is anything wrong with that.
I havent been interested in arguing from the begining, I apologize for striking a nerve so to speak.

*just sits back... waiting for the day SOME people start to mature, then start to get older... and realize some things have jack shit to do with keeping in shape, slovenly habits, or intellect... only to find out they themselves have become what they hated so much for so long*
Oh, hi to all the new folks! Ex-Coloradoan here that checks in every once in a while. *waves*

I can only assume that was directed at me, but let me assure you I am middle aged (30), Ive served my country during wartime,weathered a gunshot, serious car accident, and survived a very serious illness, and have still managed to keep my mind AND body in impeccable condition, age is no excuse to become decrepit, thats a cop out. some of the most attractive people I know are older than myself . and I look foreward to looking better than I do now, in the future !entitled said:
Im sorry this issue seems to bother so many, but Im only being honest.

Okay Y'all...
Enough piddly little, nit picking, brow beating, down talking to everyone else. I'm sick of the "my poo is better than yours" attitudes!
Sheesh! How old ARE we people?!
*steps off her soapbox and goes prowling off into the snow*

Yep. Directed right at You. And hate to point it out, but 30 is not middle aged. 30 is still pretty dang young.Soylent said:
Now me? i haven't done what You have. Or at least not much of it. Been in car accidents a few times, but other than that, no. However, i HAVE borne two children and am coming close to having a third. That in itself is enough to make me look something less than in shape. Is it my fault? Nope. That didn't happen because i'm a slob or don't take care of myself or don't work out or whatever. That's just part of life. It's not a cop out, it's a fact.
Point of view
Hello All,
It wasn’t my intention to stir up things – I did want to ad my POV.
Peace brother Soylent – you are absolutely right for you. I think when I was in my thirties I probably had much the same attitudes. I had been through many things and conquered them all. I take full responsibility for who I am and where I’m at now. For sure, if I don’t like it – I am the one who must initiate and do most of the changing to make things different.
As far as any confidence problems or whatever – you’re right they are my personal problems. I suppose I’m not that unusual in that some of my problems do involve other people and their problems. What to do? More often than not I’ve found there is more than two answers to a problem – those two being predominantly, “My way or the highway!”
Some very lovely people helped me see there are many more different ways to view things than I ever imagined. And there are “reasons” I could never begin to comprehend for the things that people do, don’t do and the things that “happen.” But I must say the lesson of compassion has been one of the toughest for me to learn – I think because I thought I’d been through it all and conquered everything in my way until my last accident.
Because you or any one else does something and becomes wonderful in the eyes of whomever, it doesn’t necessarily mean I agree, and it doesn’t necessarily mean I want to be like anyone but myself and it doesn’t necessarily mean I could be like someone else if I wanted to.
Please don’t misunderstand – I do not apologize for anything about me (except when I make an ass out of my self by MY terms) and I do not apologize for people’s view of me – I do feel badly when someone needs to put me and others down, using differences to bring themselves up to some imaginary place of superiority.
Does that make your values wrong and mine right or vice versa – no – it simply means there is difference in the world – there is not only black, white, and many shades of grey, but thousands of colors to be thousands of people’s favorites. I was told that’s why there’s 31 flavors – not everyone likes chocolate!
Your values are your values, and my values are my values and just two of the many infinite possibilities. But like you I believe this is a forum and my perspective is just as valuable as yours – I have no need to argue or defend – simply to express – Blessings Brother may our contention be as water down a drain returning to its source.

For my money, Firemoon, you have already shown your stature, intelligence, wit and, yes, your compassion. If your excellent writing is any reflecion of your persona and personality (and how can it not be?) you are certainly a person I would be very pleased to be acquainted with.

Welcome Golfnfool. It's starting to warm up...though I'm not sure how long that will last. I just wish the weather would stop changing from one extreme to the other. Oh well, at least it keeps things interesting.
