I found out at the dinner that a lot of people had assumed from my posts that I am female!
LOL. Nope. I'm a middle-aged gay man. Maybe I should change my posting name again to make my gender clearer. :-D

> Can anyone spot where I am? I'm to the right of the really tall person in the front row.
Oops, did I write front row? I meant front row for *us*. It's the back row for you. I'm in the row closest to the door.

Would I have got camera envy? I think probbaly!!
Deneb.. I'm only now catching up on all the posts, but really want to say how bloomin proud I am of you!! Getting out there and getting the message across is so important, its the only way we can make changes.
Just think.. you're feeling uncomfortable now, but some psychiatrist might have walked away and treated someone better because of it. YOU have probably improved someone elses care.
How awesome is that?

Hello Deneb*
Okay, I'm confused now. On the row that is closest to the doors, there are three people, right? On the right in there is a man with a leather jacket (I'm assuming this is Larry?) then a girl with longish brown hair, then someone shorter who is almost obscured by a lady with a green shirt on the row closest to the camera.
So are you the one in the middle on the row closest to the doors???? Assuming that there are only three people on that row? There is something unidentifiable between the guy with the leather jacket and the girl with the long brown hair. A large backpack?
Kind regards
Meri

LOL. I'm the "backpack". Told you I was tiny. I'm the shortest one there.

On the right in there is a man with a leather jacket (I'm assuming this is Larry?)I'm in the shiny black, top left of the picture as you see it now! (I struggle with the "as it was" and "as it looks" images.)
I came out of the restaurant late. We had kept the owners well past closing, I think, talking and eating butter tarts. Suddenly, we realized this. I had to go to the bathroom way too bad to just leave, but everyone else went outside. I tried to hurry, and the door to the washroom had a really heavy closer on it. It hit my sore elbow, right in the spot where my worst pain is......I had to compose myself before I came out, and I felt apart from everybody. I'm actually standing on a row of stairs no one else was on.
It passed. I don't think anyone knew.

It's true, but what sort of fancy, booze-serving restaurant closes at 8 PM?! I was surprised about that.
> I had to compose myself before I came out, and I felt apart from everybody.
I'm sorry to hear that. You covered very well. I hadn't a clue.
I think you warmed back up by the time of the conversations on the sidewalk after Bob left. Those were delightful.

Bob's not in the picture. He's the one who took the picture. I do have long straight hair, but I had it tied up in a ponytail.
If Bob had been in the picture, you'd be sure I'd be next to him. LOL
I sat across from Dr. Bob during dinner. LOL We planned it that way. There was no escaping me Bob! ROFL I got to ask Bob questions. I know I wouldn't have been able to ask him questions if he sat far away.

Hi, Phillipa.
> Could you post a picture of you all looking forward?
There wasn't one of all of us. Individual pix were taken of some people, but I don't think anyone took one of me (except the one of me with Bob that Larry took with my camera).

We agreed not to share frontal pictures to allow each of us our privacy. That said, there may be pictures with subsets of people who are willing to share their faces.

Hi Deneb*
I'm really sorry - I didn't realise it was another person!! You certainly must be pretty tiny (how tall are you if you don't mind me asking - I'm 5'10. Finding trousers is a nightmare!!) You're positively dwarfed by Larry!!! :o)
I'm always really envious of 'petite' women. They seem to have it easier finding clothes etc. And, even if they're actually quite plump, they can still wear clothes that are considered small in size eg size 8 here in the UK which I think in American is a size 4 or something. And they can wear heels. I aways have to wear flats, otherwise I seem to dwarf everyone. Sigh. I guess it would be boring if we were all the same height...
Kind regards
Meri
Ps I'm glad you had a good time at babble....

> I'm really sorry - I didn't realise it was another person!!LOL It's okay. I don't think anyone can tell it's another person.
> You certainly must be pretty tiny (how tall are you if you don't mind me asking - I'm 5'10. Finding trousers is a nightmare!!) You're positively dwarfed by Larry!!! :o)
I'm 4'11". Larry is extra tall because he was standing a step above all of us in the row closest to the door.
> I'm always really envious of 'petite' women. They seem to have it easier finding clothes etc.I have trouble finding clothes that are not too long for me. Sleeves are always too long and pants always need to be hemmed.

Ahhhhh I get it now!! I was thinking it was rather strange - you appeared to only come up to Larry's elbow, and assuming that Larry isn't 7', then that'd make you about the height of an 8 year old!!
But its the step!!
Anyway. Phew. I thought it was my eyesight!!
Kind regards

Get a large format camera, then you can actually tell people apart.
Film rules!!! Digital sucks!!!
