:D:D:D:D:D:D *waves from the horrible land of ol' Virginny*

I thought you were in VA but I wasn't certain. :)

Hullo - was pointed here by jlh. Have duly answered your poll, and I didn't answer the last question because I don't really know you enough to know if I'd hang out or not! :D (Am a bit of a shy sort, unless of course I've been given copious amounts of alcohol). Still, I'm all for having more VA based HP fen around! :)

*waves* Thanks for responding! The story is (since those posts are friendslocked), I am up for a job that may require me to move to VA, hence the poll. It will definitely be nice to know some people if I go there. And FYI, I am sort of shy myself - at least in terms of going out and making friends - partly because I like small gatherings, just hanging out and watching movies or having dinner or whatever. So I may well friend you back sometime soon, and if I end up moving, maybe we'll meet sometime! (Although I looked for the name of your town on a map and couldn't find it - is it near somewhere else you could name?)

My town (such as it is) is south of DC, straight down I-95. If you hit Richmond, you've gone too far. If you need more info than that to find me, then I'll e-mail you ;).

For whatever it's worth - I lived in VA for about a year and a half while I was in grad school. While I no longer live there and thus cannot offer to hang out with you, I can say that I lived in the Washington DC suburbs, right over the river from the city. The region is expensive, but also has TONS to offer - anything you might want, historical stuff, museums, fine arts, clubs, shopping of all sorts, decent airports, etc, including good public transportation if you get a place near the Metro or a bus line. It is super-cool to live near where it all happens, in terms of the government, even for someone like me who isn't a huge government buff. It is also, however, a very Type-A sort of place, with people always rushing around and frequently (depending on their job) working odd hours. I will admit it was nice to move to PA where things calmed down a bit (and got less expensive). However, otherwise, I very much enjoyed my time in VA.

Thanks for the insights - I appreciate it!

I chose other because some parts are the suburbs, and the other parts are city.

Ahaha, I make no sense once again B-)

*grins* I gotcha, no worries. :)
