European and African Events is the tough one for sure..
Sometimes I want to say to my friends hey, guess what my BL post count is now! Then I realise how lame that is hehe (and that most of them don't know what BL is.. "some weird drugs forum you post in") :D
Just remind them that you're on staff. It's a volunteer position. That's what I tell people hehe
Most friends of mine think its cool or are indifferent. I've been asked to look up stuff about interactions and such "on that Blue Light site" many times
Although I'm seriously considering running down the corner market and picking up a 12-pack (of PBR of course) before the masses clean the place out of beer....
NT, if you do have one Pabst Blue Ribbon on my friend Georgianna, may she rest in peace, it was her choice of beer and there was never a night she didn't have a can in her hand.
