late night eats with a space alien
I made it to the Night Kitchen with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shivana, formerly known as Tall Girl, for some mellow late night eats last night.
She's from a planet different from mine, but she comes in peace. She uses pronouns unknown even to most MOOers. (Yeah, I screwed them up once. Bad trans woman! Bad!) She & her brother used to kick at each other as fetuses - from separate wombs. As I told her, "alt kids", among whom she numbers herself, didn't exist in 1980's Gainesville, FL. It's a brave new world she comes from, and probably a happier one.
She's one of the few people who's explicitly invited me to squee at her about Full Time and its aftermath. I know I've bored or squicked a lot of people, so it was a nice change. I got to impart my limited Burning Man wisdom. ("Don't bring anything you care about.") I could have gone on a lot longer than I did, which was plenty.
