Hello, everyone in cyberspace! I finally got fed up with deleting these emails from my account and here I am, complete with new anti-virus software just in case this isn't kosher. I hope it's legitimate, though. Such insistent emails just simply have to mean something important and big is going on.

So what is it? A party? A pyramid scheme? Human trafficking? Coupons? Cyber-orgy? ;)

I suppose I should do the customary Getting To Know You thing, too. My name is Misha, I'm an actress in NYC, I'm a Taurus, and I like hot fudge sundaes, rose gardens, and romantic comedies.

No, I remember the name and the myth a bit. I used to love reading the Greek myths when I was a kid. I always thought the name Ariadne was the prettiest sounding one. I also named Aphrodite as my favorite goddess but I figure I already fangirl Ms Lovelace enough. No need to get creepy.

I bet working at the game company is really challenging. There aren't many women in that field, are there?

Did you know at one point they referred to me as "Ariadne Aphrodite"? True facts. Theoi.com will back it up.

And there are more women than you might think, but it is still mostly a boys' club. And I do mean boys. Most of them will never grow up, I swear.

Now that is very interesting. Also quite a title to live up to!

Oh, I would believe that. It's the same with stage crew. They still think duct tape can fix everything - including a girl's heart - and that dressing up means putting on the least stained dockers.

That was a long time ago.

But one thing's for certain: guys never change, do they?

[ill-met.insanejournal.com]

Sometimes I hear they do but I have yet to see it. But they're terribly amusing and useful for some things so it looks like personally I'm stuck with guys.

Though some start out much nicer than others.

Oh, I like them fine, but it gets tiring being the Team Mom after a while.

[ill-met.insanejournal.com]

I can only imagine! Then again, no one is crazy enough to ask me to be Team Mom ever so, even with the guys around, I get off easy.

Lucky you! So, are you much of a gamer at all?

[ill-met.insanejournal.com]

Only casually, really. I don't own a system of my own but I have friends who do and they sometimes host gaming parties. I'm not very good at them but they can be a lot of fun. I guess you would have to be, though. If for no other reason than research!

I help develop games for the PC, actually, but most tend to be offered on multiple platforms.
