Question for the network. How do you celebrate birthdays here? Do you mark it based on the days back home, or the date here? I guess I'm trying to figure out how I should count.

Also, if anyone has any good names for cats, I guess I'm open to suggestions. She's a girl, if that helps.

Yeah, it's a little awkward sometimes.

I've gotten used to it by now though, so when I do meet someone I knew who doesn't recognize me it doesn't take me that long to adjust to it. Even if it still sucks when it happens.

[numbertwohero]

It seems like it would. You spend time getting to know a person, becoming friends, and then the next time you see them, it's not really 'them' anymore. I don't know how I'd feel if that happened.

Were you other places, before this one and the other? Or are there just a lot of people here you know that don't know you?

[justicedevil]

Nah, I've only been in the two places, but I did have a lot of people that I've met here who didn't recognize me. A lot of them were close friends too, so I got used to the idea pretty quickly.

But yeah, it's not a good feeling when it happens, no matter how used to it happening you get.
