Should we [View all]

Last edited Mon Oct 20, 2014, 12:37 AM - Edit history (1)

have another meet and greet in this group?

I was away from DU for a long time and there are lots of new faces.

I'll start:

I am a vegetarian nature lover who's into horses, photography and kayaking.

oh, and I'm a girl

EDIT: I have to wonder if it's a good idea for us to discuss our personal lives in this group anymore. I'm not going to go into meta but someone has used this thread to suggest some of our members are emotionally disturbed. If you want to delete your posts I understand. Fwiw, I'm sorry I brought this into the A/A group.
