1. Part of your preference for lurking could be that you seem attached to the "ugly" style. Try changing it to "spring" and see if your attitude changes. 2. Do you have anything to say about paddling? I mean in the canoe sense, not in the BDSM sense.
Surprise -- I actually don't canoe much at all...My username is from an old story that we tell at my camp about the ghost of an indian princess paddling a birch bark canoe. I had had a very bizarre dream about this tale the night before I created my account. I will say, however, that my experiences in canoes have been positive ones. But generally, I'm more of a hiking type than a paddling type. Was that way too much information? I tend to do that.... and maybe I'll give spring a try :)Do you have anything to say about paddling?
