You're welcome! It's cool that that guy said we were family, though I don't know if he would have felt that way if he knew we were not exactly homosexual, though some some among us were in gay relationships.

That sounds super-awesome! I wish I could've gone - I was actually in Atlanta the weekend before that, but sadly I couldn't extend my trip because I had commitments at home.

Love your ace swag, btw. What does your shirt say?

Yeah, it costs big bucks to get into the conference, too--kind of a lot if you haven't budgeted for it (I got a discounted rate as a presenter).

Glad you like the swag. My shirt said "When you say I'm confused about my sexuality, what you really mean is YOU'RE confused about my sexuality."

Not what I was supposed to focus on, I know, but I love your flannel shirt. It's like wearing the flag, do you know where you got it?

Sounds like a great time.

Glad you like. My shirt is available at Target!

Apparently not anymore, oh well. I might take a look anyway if I'm over that way sometime.

Oh, really? I bought it pretty recently. I guess stuff disappears fast sometimes.

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic however , I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa?

My website covers a lot of the same subjects as yours and I think we could
greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested
feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you!
Awesome blog by the way!

For the record, the way you're being extremely vague here not saying what your website is or what topic you think we both cover, while posting on an extremely old post, suggests you are spam. If you want to be in contact, it's not difficult to find me, so please do that instead and send a private communication if you are trying to set something up.
