I am not showing up on a door step all crazy stalker like. And, the address is on the internet. I dunno, I am very conflicted on how I feel.

I have used private addresses 3 times so far, no luck, but they did recently go out so who knows what will come of it. I wrote one letter to someone I really look up to thanking them for all they do for the gay community, and the letter was really important to me. I hope they get it and actually read it, I had tears in my eyes when I wrote it, and I didn't feel like there was any other way to get it to them. I am sure they know they are appreciated and so is their charitable work but I wanted them to know how I felt.

If you wanna use a private address, go for it. But I do not and will not give out a private address and I hope those that use them don't either.

Best of luck.
