First, it's Fall and the leaves Inverurie are still breath-takingly beautiful when the light hits them just right, (literally make you stop breathing when you it); and then there's the fact that it's October, and that means HALLOWEEN where I live! The one time of year where you can let your freak out: accountants dressing as slutty-cats, men dress as women, women dress as alligators, well you feel me, right? I it all! But THE best part is I'm helping my daughter with her Halloween costume today. She's 12 and going as Daydara from Naruto, (that's a Japanese character). She has this Huge afro today to try to fit under a blonde wig! We are having the best time. I wish I could afford to have more -! Crazy, ay? I'm taking her and her friend (he is going as an Akaski too, I remember matching with my friends) to trick-or-treat at a local park tonight. Then back to our house to watch a scarey movie and eat popcorn. Wonderful, wonderful! how to live, but if you are going to stay in the closet you are making it times more difficult for yourself to find and meet friends. Most of the educated responsible successful men I know are not looking to live life in the shadows. Of course I live in the NYC area where it is much easier to be open in my life. But you said, "I can't take the of having any kind of meeting with the local population." Given that, is it any surprise you haven't met anyone loy? Kind of answered your own question.
