The public me...

I'm 30 and female. I've been married since the summer of '94 to this wonderful person, best friend, soulmate, and lover - Carl. His name's not been disguised on the site anywhere because it's so hard to think of him as anyone else.

I work for a web based company, building community online - whatever that means. The job has both a production side which lets us be artist-creative, and a people side. I really, really like it.

I'm a writer, or trying to be. No, okay, I am. Part of the journey towards autheticity for me is about really writing.

I'm still "in the closet" if you will for the most part. My husband knows, and a few selected friends, most of them online, or else who live far enough away that I don't have to look them in the eye about it - yet. Being multiple is something that is really not understood by society yet, and I'm not prepared to risk everything to come out about it yet. This website is a bit of a test that way. If you recognize me don't tell me. :)

For that reason a lot of the names around here have been changed.

Me, the voice on the site...

Hello, my name is Teresa, and I'll be your host for this evening...

Usually, when I say 'I,' I'm referring to the person the rest of the system thinks of as Jen, or Teresa (we used to be two people and now we're working as one, although I'm not sure we're integrated). I like to think of myself as the adult, although I unfortunately have a lot of moments which make you wonder!

I usually have executive control.
