Microphones


I have noticed that some chat rooms have people that use the mic. I am not sure how I feel about this yet. Sometimes I like them and sometime I do not. There are times I put mine on mute because I cannot handle the conversation or I am rocking out to my own music and talking gets in the way. I think its funny when you are having a conversation with someone using a mic and they read everything you type aloud in the room and then they respond to it. This can really get old after awhile. So the solution to this is, talk back to them mic to mic.

I do not know why I just do not use mine. I guess its a big step and you cannot re-type a response or edit before sending out to the room. On mic, it is what it is. I think my problem is that I am so worried about sounding like a total dork that I have forgotten that it is meant to be fun. So, I sit there listening to the people on the mic and wishing I would just push that little green talk button. I just seem to talk myself out of it every time I feel like joining in.

My goal is to actually say more than three words in a room. I know I will do it. I did say goodbye as I left a room the other day. Who knows before long I might be one of those mic hogs that everyone puts on ignore? A girl and dream can't she?
