Hello all:

I am a new old person. I have been reading on and off here for several years. I can't believe I finally joined the group. I can barely believe anyone would *let* me join a group. I used to believe what Groucho Marx said: I would never join any group that would have me as a member.

I worry ... a lot. I worry -- about everything continually. I worry that no one will read my intro. And I worry no one will ever write to me. I thought long and hard about what I would do if everyone just ignored me and think I have come up with a solution. I am going to write back to myself and just answer my own messages constantly so that I won't feel so alone.

I hope that everyone is well and safe. This world needs love and kindness.

Night-night,
Harriet Bergeron
 
Welcome to BL.

You may be surprised at the diversity we have here, and how welcoming we are. We have all walks of life here from the lowest of street junkies to genius PHD recipients and prominent members of drug science/awareness. We have members of all ages. The average age of our members is probably a lot higher than you would think. We're a mature group (relatively...)

You think too much, just like I do. Anxiety is our curse. We are very loving and open here (and sometimes crazy, but that comes with the territory).

Let me know if you have any questions about BL or where/how to post!

I love and relate to that <3

Hey, do NOT worry about it. Of course i read your intro. Members and staff on Bluelight are cool people, do not be scared there!
 
Welcome to BlueWorld Sir

And as @Snafu of the Forest said you will be surprised with the welcoming and just general active of staff and community members here, so doubt you will ever have to answer any of your own questions. So feel free to ask anything you want to know or advise or what thread to use best for what you need.

You will find this Forum a lot better then most with a no judgement policy and very big into HR. So i hope you enjoy your stay and glad you made the jump to join.

Regards

Hi, Snafu!!! And Thanks! I love the diversity here. This is Diversity University! I wanted a truly well-rounded online society where not everyone was erudite. I am mostly an autodidact. I have been keeping an eye on this beautiful Bluelight for about 12 years now. For most of those 12 years I have been disabled and MIA.

In my post I was trying to write in Emo Phillips' voice. I do not think it worked since I was taken literally! Ha-ha! Also, I should have explained my screen name. Harriet Bergeron is the female counterpart of Harrison Bergeron, who is the title character in a short story by Kurt Vonnegut.

On top of being too disabled to write to this board, all hell was breaking loose in our country. The past four years have left me feeling disenfranchised, disenchanted, and dismally disillusioned. Please excuse the ranting, raving redundancy of the overuse and complete inconsiderate usage of alliteration.

Glad you liked the Groucho quote! I dearly love the Marx Brothers. I also forgot to add that I am a musician. I play bottleneck (slide) blues guitar, fingerstyle, and classical and work in many open tunings. I had to put much of my life on hold due to surgery. I have had my entire C-spine repaired with a titanium cage twice now and it appears I am going to need even more surgery to repair the repair. Makes me crazy. I also have to have a shoulder arthroscopy.

I have been drawn to Bluelight because many people here must know and have experienced trouble using narcotics safely. I have been lucky when it comes to taking them responsibly. I also sip PST and am very cautious. Chronic pain has and will always be a cold fact in my life.

Please excuse me for going on and on. I have been severely isolated and have bottled up words that are just spilling out of me.

Thank you for writing to me.

Thanks very much, Ghost fart! I didn't realise that I was almost completely taken out of context until I read the replies! I was kidding! I think in Emo Phillips' language and jargon almost all the time. I am sorry, and I wish I would have written in my normal voice, but I can no longer tell them apart!

I wish I had joined Bluelight long ago. I am going to be getting Dragon Dictate so that I do not have to strain my arms and hands while typing. I am disabled and in a wheelchair. I am ambulatory, but only for about five minutes at a time while using a walker.

I think this site is cool and I hope I find many avid readers as well as kindred spirits here.

Thanx!

Hi, CoffeeShroom:

I love your username! It reminds me of sillycybin -- ha-ha! Thanks for your warm welcome.
