Good stuff.
Susan's has been my home for almost 17 years now. And because of the same reason. The people. You all make this site what it is. We attract the weird and wonderful from all walks of life and all corners of the world.
Anyone who is just viewing the site... I was where you were once. Scared to take that next step. Scared of what it means to you, what people would say. Would I fit in? Is this the right place for me?
Taking that leap of faith is one of the best things that's ever happened to me. The number of people here I've met, formed friendships with. The laughter, the tears, the camaraderie. There's a reason I'm still here since 2008.
Take that step. It might be the best step you ever took. And I don't mean the whole subscribing thing. If you can, and want to, do that. But just... take that next step. We have so many people here who are so full of knowledge, empathy and understanding. People just willing to give you a hug if you need it.
Don't be a stranger, okay? We're an eclectic bunch. But we're also a family. A very... dysfunctional and awesome family.
