I wanted to share a piece of email I got the other day. Email like this adds to the reasons I don’t toss the cam out the windows some days. ๐

Greetings:
I’m not much of one for writing, not letters at least. But part of me has
decided to start contacting the people that have made a difference in my
life. Not for any reason other then that i’m afraid, given the passing of
time, i’ll forget them, and i would hate to do that – to have them fade
without knowing how i feel.
I stumbled on your site way back when it was Kimiko-Dreams.com ; it was
some time ago – back in ’99 or ’98 maybe. i used to watch your shows all
the time, though sadly i’ve fallen out of the habit lately.
In one of the pictures – i’m sure you won’t remember it – Hunter’s wearing
a talon ring or a hand piece, and it inspired me to get one, just recently.
Talk about making an impact when ya meet someone, heh.
At any rate, at that time in my life i was alone. I mean not just alone,
but the kind of cataclysmically alone that you feel when you know – for a
fact – that the people around you can’t accept who and what you are. They
still can’t. But you – you and QGirl and Juju and a couple others – gave me
a reason to not just slam on the gas and aim for a tree. It’s not that i
was in love or anything foolish like that – i just wanted to see what’d
happen next, like on a TV show. And so i’d get home – home from school,
home from college, home from wherever – dial up to my cheap ISP, load up
IE, and watch you sitting in your chair or posing or what not. It made me
feel, not alone. As though i had some connection on any level with someone
else on this planet, and that at the least, they wouldn’t push me away or
tell me i was sick. Of course, one supposes i never gave such a chance.
I just wanted you to know – though i can’t say if you saved my life or not,
i can say that you sure made it bearable.
I wish you luck with all you do – and to me, you do not look overweight or
out of shape.
thank you,
