Hello, I thought I better write one of these greeting things up as I have been a member here for 3 years or so now. I'm 25, queer and from Brisbane, Australia.

I am diagnosed autistic, but have previously been misdiagnosed with co-morbid schizophrenia (turns out it was OCD). I also have epilepsy.

I work full time in a government job and live independently and have few hobbies. Reading that, I am sure you are like wow she is like the epitome of interesting. Not.

But hello anyways.

"Government job"... must mean "secret agent!"

I'm just going to assume one of your hobbies is wrestling kangaroos.

You sound SO COOL!! :geek:

You don't wrestle kangaroos. You box with them.

Hi, Permanence. Always nice to see a fellow Aussie here. I visit Brisvegas regularly. (also in government work - sans kangaroos)

Yikes, you got me there Amethyst...my job is 90% secret agent, 5% "wrestling" kangaroos and 5% being amazing.

And Raleigh, great to find another Australian also. Which of our great states are you in?

Nice to meet you both.

Oh cool, do you enjoy the lifestyle up there? For me, Brisbane is just right. Not too fast, not too slow, not too busy and not too quiet. Just right :)

Very laid back here - nice beaches and riverside, but I do enjoy visiting Brisbane. Will be down that way again in about 5 weeks. Might see you there!

I have never been around your way but from what I understand it is very laid back and country town-like. Would be nice for a holiday I guess! And yes, may we cross paths one day :)
