Just curious, but do you ever tell your parents or other friends that you have a "social life" online?

The other day, I told my mother and my sister that. I told them that that was the reason why I am on the internet so much after getting into an argument with them. And that I lied about a few things about why I'm trying to send letters to friends that "I know". They suspected that I have been socializing on the Internet more than in real life, and that they are scared that I may be hanging out with the wrong crowd. I assured them that deviantART is, in general, not like Facebook, Myspace, or Youtube. My mom and my sister said that they were upset that I lied to them to cover up the fact that I do indeed talk to people that I've never met, but they do not mind now that I talk to you guys and trust every word that you write. :love: I am older now, and I am smarter about the Internet than I was when I was about 11 or 12; I know what I am doing.
After that long talk, I got to tell them a little bit about you guys. Like the Rainbow Princess that brightens up our miserable days. And that awesome and helpful no-namer. And a friend who endlessly spams my inbox. And my bunkmate. And...well, I can go on and on. :dalove:
I suppose that I don't have to spend endless hours on the Internet as much, although it is hard to break the habit :lol:
Maybe I should try socializing more with people now that I know what crowd I'm in.


Other than that, I'll be away for about two days to go the the beach. Starting tomorrow. I think that there's computers in the hotel, so I might be there to check messages :hug:


Also, can you all read this article by MagicallyCapricious about deviants in financial trouble and :+fav: it? That would be great. If you can spread that word as well, that's awesome :love:

In addition, please look at this simple, short, yet meaningful article about sexuality written by our Hopping Bunny, lacommunaute. Make sure you fave, comment, and tell others about it too.

Oh, today RotoDisk gave me a 3 month subscription as a random act of kindness <3 Please send lots of love to her!

I think that's it ^^; Hope everyone is fine.
