Amazingly, no homes were burned and no one has been hurt. I just read that people in the mountains are now allowed to return to their homes. So it has a happy ending, fire is part of the ecology, but we were supposed to stay indoors here in town for a couple of days when it was hazy. |

^ I was sorta, kinda dragged to a Metric show a few years ago. I wasn't familiar with their music but I thought, ok what the hey. To make a long story short, it was not very fun for me. Mostly because my friend got super drunk and told all the cute girls that would approach me that I was her "girlfriend" and would drag me up/down and all around the venue. This was followed by her flashing me in the parking lot. Good times indeedy! |

The Lockheed fire is either out or under control, but it is really smokey today. I was going to go for a walk, guess not. |

^ Haha yeah, I check the obvious, stereotypical clues out before making a move. Last night, I simply could.not.tell. And she was cute too. Damn. |

I think the gaydar is a myth. |

people never suspect with me cause i don't "look gay." i think though that with most people you just can't tell so it makes it hard for everyone else haha. i think some people just have an intuition for it. someone told me they knew i was by the way i walked and then some other girl asked a friend of mine if i was because i said i was really into pj harvey, which i found to be hilarious. she said it was apparently the way i talked about her. |

Yeah, agree about the intuition bit. A friend of mine has it. She's never wrong! I also get the music bit. PJ Harvey tends to fall into the "lesbian music" category, so automatically, if you listen to it, you MUST be gay. |

Some people definitely have intuition (or: a set of processed information from past experience) but it's hard to pinpoint what exactly this information is. Surely a lot of people (gaydarless included) can pick up stereotypes and one can even try to describe characteristics, but a lot of it will sound more like a hunch than anything else. They can blame it on trivialities like poor Polly but it's always gonna be more than that, or just a lucky guess because obviously if they tried it on female PJ fans they're not familiar with they'd get it wrong a lot of times. In conclusion, it can't be taught, so we're all screwed. |

I wonder why people have that PJ-"she-listens-to-PJ-so-she-must-be-gay" connection. i suppose that goes back to dress, man-size, and 50ft queenie though. |

I didn't even know about 'lesbian music' til I got to college. I met a girl there who was sure I was gay because of the music I listened to. Sorry to let her down! lol My boss is away ALL WEEK and I really don't feel like working, or pretending to cuz, no one is here to check up on me. But damn the deadlines that never end! |
