Ideas

(posting here than LJ-at least yet-because well not 100% why but there is a reason)

After everything else some far this week (more like weekend) I decided to treat myself to seeing if wraithfodder had posted the last bit about the 11/3-11/5 con. She did!!

And of course absoultely LOVED reading the newsest (and last :( ) of it. And while reading about Joe's talk the one part struck me. And I mean it. Of course reading about the off set stuff-priceless!! But this one well response hit home.

Following info via wraithfodder's LJ and I'll say (c) my her (well since actually took the time to transcripe it-I give her credit because I would not have "heard" about any other way) and this was in response to a question someone asked Joe (and at wraithfodder's LJ its in the part were someone is talking about having the atlantis ring tone on their cell)-its all Joe.

"I was very shy as a kid. I got very shy and to the point where I was so shyI didn't want to really ever be up in front of any kind of group oranything. In college, I'd actually drop out of a class if they asked me to read in front of class," he admitted. "I hated it, and I actually went to an acting class because the shyness had gotten so bad that it was affecting my whole life. I wasn't able to do any of the things I really wanted to do and it started to really snowball into greater fear so I just did it simply because I thought psychologically it would be healthy not to be too shy about this stuff. And then go figure.. I became an actor. Wow, I mean that was a huge jump.. Truthfully speaking, it's one of the most common fears in the world is to be in front of a group of people."


OH MY F..... GOD!! That is soo-no lie me. I once took the advance (well sorta) english class in 10th grade to get out of the public speaking class. Never did have the problem in colledge (pfft that place!). But it is making me think. Really. I've had the inkling before the possible try this because my shyness is really I think affecting my life. I never go out (homebody here) and that sucks. Big a... time! Jesus C.....!! I mean I had respect for him before but still... I just can't say anymore about him.

I mean this really is emotional to me. It like "get off my lazy, fat arse and go and do something about". I mean what excuse do I do? Money, time, sleep (that be the only thing becuae of the way I work). Really inspiring Joe. Truely. May I have the guts/nerve/etc to tell him that. Guess that goes along the lines of walking up to one of them and say hi without feeling like I'd die.

One day I'll tell him that. Truely. Thanks for the advise Joe even though you probably will have NO IDEA that you gave it and somebody used it in this way. Thanks. My respect forever. nod.
