I have a secret!

This is the post I'd planned to put up before I posted my fic, but I just finished it now. Hey, better late than never!

I have a confession to make. My name is spiderine, but for the past three months I've also been ask_arealdoctorYes, I've been masquerading as a sock puppet. I AM NOT ASHAMED TO ADMIT IT! I just couldn't admit it before now because... well, SOCK PUPPET ( Read more... )

ask!verse, torchwood, pontificating

If I haven't said it before I'll say it now. The one good thing about this coming to an end (and the only as far as I can see) is that I now can friend a bunch of really cool people and have my small Torchwood bubble grow just a widdle bit.

YAY NEW FRIENDS!

3) I'm not black. I am a white girl of Russian-Jewish heritage.

Hee! So this is where I should apologize for calling you on the Yiddish-influenced phrases, huh?

Sorry about that, babe.

LOLS! Yeah, I slipped up once or twice. Damn that pesky suspension-of-disbelief filter! :)

It is so great to read this. You were beyond brilliant as Martha, and I'm one of the legions who fell in love with you (as you must know from Jack's find-Martha-a-date poll). I just about wasn't kidding about doing gender reassignment for you -- you took everything I liked about canon Martha and, well, put it on crack. Made it more so.

You're dead on about Gwen needing a gal-pal and the Hub needing a responsible adult and ask!world needing someone a little earnest, a little pushy, but altogether admirable. I was horrified at the start of the Hartha stuff (WTF?), but you guys sold it, and the resolution was actually...touching.

Also, you give great icon. And I'm impressed that you were doing all this in the midst of your computer woes! Thank you.

Thank you very much! Yeah, a lot of those 300-comment thread marathons? I WAS DOING THEM FROM AN IPHONE. Sweet baby jeebus on toast!

I was convinced you had some kind of medical training. I've really enjoyed your Martha even if I was a bit hmm about her getting together with John. Your fic might have converted me!

Sad to see ask_arealdoctor go, it's been a blast!

LOLZ. I Googled and Wiki'd HARD for the medical stuff. I learned a lot, too! And I'm glad that we managed to win you over to the John and Martha stuff. In a very twisted way, they made the perfect couple.

Thank you for joining us on such a grand adventure. I'm going to miss it. HARD!

This is what I get for reading my friends page backwards.

I have to admit, I do work in Admin. And my boss is nothing like Jabba the Boss but HIS boss ... well, let's just say Jabba has a basis in real life.

2) I'm not British. I am American.
3) I'm not black. I am a white girl of Russian-Jewish heritage.
4) I AM NOT, NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN, A HETEROSEXUAL!

Are we related? Well, except that ten years ago I had a male husband. But I'm better now.

Please to meet'cha. Wherebouts in the US are you? I'm in Oregon and will do my own coming-out post when I get home from work and everyone who doesn't know me otherwise can find me.

T

I am

OMG I once had a male husband too! BUT I GOT OVER IT! WE MUST BE TWINS!

I spent most of my life in NYC until I moved to Boston about 2 1/2 years ago. We can meet in the middle! Chicago or somewhere...
