ElePHPant Haven

This was originally going to be two people, but iPhoto doesn't appear to have any faces for Joe and searching otherwise takes too long. I should really spend a weekend just naming everyone sometime. Anyway, I digress.

While this person may not have had the biggest impact on me, she has had one of the biggest (I don't particularly rate people's impact on me, though I kinda know the people that have had a major impact).

She is basically why I can function around them women folk. It took three years of interaction with her before I could manage a one-on-one conversation without being completely flustered and overheating. Since she was pretty much my only female contact in a social setting during this time (basically all of secondary school), I've got her to thank for being able to function slightly better outside of a single-sex private school :)

This is Natalie, aka Switch, back at @tacmoy's 21st. She's probably not going to like me posting a picture of her (she's offline at the moment, so I can't ask her).

Apart from helping me to not be as sucky at social things, without realising it, she's also an amazing person that I enjoy talking to and being around. She's one of a select few that I can be around for extended periods of time without my introvertness complaining about too much people time. She's also one of the top two people I chat with. I could go do a log-line count, but can't really be bothered.
