*delurk* Hey, there! I'm 31, lesbian, comedian, long-time Willow(& now Tara) fan, and I wrote a very silly fanfic, working on another this weekend. Dang, that all sounded like a personal ad!;~)
I've only just found this board, and I really love the vibe here;~)
OT: as for my BTVS fanfic, "Monkey Pants" is all over the place (People seem to love it or hate it - no grey area), and the new one is in the outline-y stage, hopefully will be submitted to the usual suspects next week or so. This one's much less explicit than "Monkey Pants", and hopefully will be even sillier.
Peace out!
my name is Theodora (Theo for short), I'm 25 and a rock singer/songwriter.
Obviously, I'm new to this message board , but I have been a BtVS since its early days. With the start of season 3 I became what we call a "hardcore nutball" over in the Xena fandom. *g*
In season 4 Tara totally blew me away with her very first appearance. Until Tara, Willow was always my number 1 ... now it's kinda hard for me to decide who's cuter. *lol* Joke. I love all of Joss Whedon's characters. And as a lesbian I am very proud of how sweet and "natural" he managed to portray the T/W relationship.
My buddy Andreas and I have a BtVS/XWP website, which includes original fan art, e.g. my new Tara/Willow song and the music video Andi has created for it:

Well, see y'all -

Zoe, we LA folks (Xita, Willow4Tara, Utena, Lady J, Stella... uhh, did I leave anyone out?) consider it our sacred duty to go out and check out location shoots and other Buffy-related events, then come back here to the Kitten Board and gloat... er, I mean report back to those who live far away. Just check out the recent thread regarding the WB All-Star party and you'll see what I mean.
I've been lurking (for the most part) here for a week or so. It's definitely time to introduce myself. My name is Lise and I'm from Vancouver, Canada. I was lured here by the ER - Kim/Kerry threads. I haven't watched Buffy (ever), but after enjoying your wonderful board for the past while I will definitely watch it the next time it is on.
Thanks for the great ER discussions and this, by far, is the most positive and interesting discussion I've found on the topic.
I thought I'd introduce myself because I've been lurking for a few days. I'm from the UK (poor me) and I've been watching Buffy from the second episode. I eventually got to see the first one part way through season two
I've been enjoying the Kerry/Kim thread (anyone know when new ER starts over here? *sigh*) and the AMC thread. I saw a few episodes of it while I was in Canada (just at the start of the Libidizone on the boat plot) and thought Bianca was great. Pretty cute too.
Lucky me got to see a couple of Buffy episodes while I was there as well - yay 'Family' Willow has always been my favourite character and I think Tara is great. I have to say that real quiet around here (my sister's a rabid Oz fan) but still... The W/T plot has made me feel a lot better about my own sexuality, less like a freak, so I feel really grateful to Joss et al for going with it.
Anyway, that's me in dull monochrome. Y'all asleep yet?
Post a bunch, make some noise but mostly have fun.
Here's my impersonation of Xita (the nasty moderator) on Saturday night.
how many of us out there on the kitty board have months for names, anyway? i am not alone!

hi, i'm from the uk too! have you seen the small clips of ER (and ally & friends etc) on ads for the new channel 4 digital channel? i'm not sure if/when it'll start on there though. if we have to pay to see them (i'm not sure if thats the case yet) its unfair, they are some of C4s highgest rating shows!

do you see her face when she's gone sometimes so bright your heart just stops (sleater-kinney)
and welcome from a fellow Canadian. I'm sure your going to find BTVS, and especially Willow and Tara, just as irresistible as the rest of us do and will soon be completely hooked. Have fun and enjoy.

I've seen most of season 1, and what my friend called "willow relevant epis" all the way through season 4, and have been religiously watching season five. It's great to know that there are other fans of the relationship out there...there are so little representations of lesbians on television, I feel like we need to hang on to what we can, and if possible...make things better (Joss, could you please just let them kiss, please? heehee).
Alrighty...there's my little intro. Hope all is well with all the folks on the board.
Cheers,
bunny
I was drawn into this group via the ER Kerry-Kim drama, and I'm quite obsessed. For the wannabe psychologists out there, yes, I think it's quite possible that I'm sublimating my stress over the upcoming birth by focusing on this TV show, thank you very much.
I don't watch Buffy, mostly on account of I don't get this station. I tried watching All My Children last week when I was sick, but I kept thinking that Bianca didn't look like any lesbian I ever knew, so the story didn't draw me in at all.
(Spring, to answer you're question about why I don't get WB, I have a satellite dish, so I only get the big networks. Our apartment is in an apparent black hole of reception and competent cable installers.)
That's about it.

There are a number of Georgians here but none of them are very nice.
I have a sister who is 16 and lives in Alabama but she doesn't have a website. I have another sister in California though and she has two sites. Maybe it all evens out.
We're happy to have you here. Have fun and if you need any help getting caught up on all the Buffy and W/T goodness, there are plenty of folks here who can point you in the right direction.
GO Shakira!
I am 20 and have lived my whole life in Upstate NY (more cows than people!). I just graduated from a 2 year communtiy college in December, I now hold an Associate's Degree for Graphic Design. However, I just got a job as a clerk for Stweart's Shops, a convenience store chain in the area. This was necessary because I figure I can work my @$$ off and pay for my twin sister's car (which I smashed), then save up and move to Cali and be with my Love. =) Hopefully this will all be accomplished in the next 2-3 months.
Other interests are my crazy cat Star who is 5 months old, my girlfriend, the internet, Xena and Buffy, comic books, and my truck Betty. I also have the rather unusual (for my geographic area) obsession with Jack in the Box. There are no Jack in the Box's in New York, and people keep stealing my Jack antenna balls off my truck. >_< I also love drawing and a comic called Elfquest. One day I aspire to have my own daily comic strip.
Lately I use my spare time making Willow and Tara themed Winamp skins in Photoshop. Fun to do and keeps my design skills up for when I am no longer a clerk. *^_^*
~Joy
Anyway, winamp skins???? SHARE! I have an amber skin, but I would love a Willow/Tara skin.
And I would adore someone who could make a willow/tara yahoo skin. I wanted to myself, but alas no time ever.
Welcome to the board!
They are in the Misc. Goodies section. The versions that I have there are not totally done (as in I haven't made mini-browser skins for them yet, but who ever uses the mini-browser anyway) ... but when I spiff them up a bit they will be updated. The versions I have of them now are very lovely.
I have an Amber skin that I downloaded, but it's not as nice as the ones I made, because who ever made it didn't even make their own Playlist skin! How lazy!!
How I came about making the skins was, I was trying to find W/T skins and looked all night before I decided that there were none to find. And so I stayed up all night making my first one. It was a nice project and hopefully people can enjoy them. I like to share my work with people ... maybe I can even get a real job somehow LOL.
~Joy
Well, I hope to see you around, and I hope that you all have a good day
BIg welcome
and Joy, I didn't know Extra Flamey had your skins. Running now to get them. And I don't blame you for wanting to date Willow, but yeah I think Tara's taking good care of her now. And you would make a yahoo skin?? YOU ROCK! I have no preference, I mean I love blue but I give you creative freedom. Just use the hug from "Real Me" maybe or the rooftop scene. That would be very cool. Big Thanks in advance!
Oh yeah and hee hee, in high school I always wanted to be Willow's gf. (This was way back in the first couple seasons too. Heehee.) But Tara is doing a good job at it so I will let her keep it up. Okay I will run away now!
~Joy
I am starting on the Yahoo skin (blue monochrome with the same pic that is on the purple Winamp skin) and I am unable to get more than my 3 default skins showing up in my preferences. So I can't see how it looks on my Yahoo Messenger to see if it needs tweaking. Can you help me? Pleeeeeeease??
~Joy
