Hey. I'm Mattie (born Matthew) and I'm MtF, but honestly, I prefer to just think of myself as a girl. I'm a "Glass half full" person like that.  I'm 20 yo (21 on tax day), I'm bisexual with a preference for girls, and I live in Michigan.

I guess that's it.

Hi Mattie,   

Welcome to our little family. Over 2100 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion. Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams.  Ask questions and seek answers.  Give and receive advice.

But remember we are family here, your family now.  And it is always nice to have another sister.   

Janet

Thank you. 

No disrespect intended, Janet, but do you copy-paste your welcomes?

Oh, and welcome.

A matter of fact I do, with minor variations.  But so does Tink and a couple of others.

But I do add something that is relative to the person, if I so feel driven.  It is a standized greeting that works for me.  Once I get to know the new person I become a lot more personal.

Yeah, I was thinking also that that Janet thing must be a pain to copy paste as well, honestly, I don't understand why so many people are driven to sign thier own posts.

But I'm hijacking the topic. Please enjoy yourself here, Mattie.

P.S. DAYYYMN, that looks good, accually.

Personal touch, Heartwood. A personal touch.

We now return you to our programming, "the Welcoming of Mattie Bear".  Hi again Mattie.

Hi Mattie Bear

Welcome and feel free to explore and post. This is a great site for people like us.

BTW
I sign my posts out of respect to the postie/ poster?
It's personal . Besides when I can't spell my name it's time for the next bottle of jungle juice
