I am curious as to how you use the computer and browse the internet, if you cared to explain.

(Please don't take that the wrong way; so far, you seem really cool from your posts that I have read, except for wanting to be a lawyer.   By the way, when you are "reading" this site, how do the smiley faces appear to you?  I would really be unhappy to offend you accidentally with some stupid silly shit that is just a joke.)

As for the faces my tech is a bitch. Sometimes it tells me there's an emoji with a small description; other times it will interpret emoji as some sort of odd punctuation.

Good to know.  I will try to remember that when trying to communicate with you (but I have a poor memory).  You still seem too cool to be a lawyer.  Are you just jerking us around with that?  Blind and cool is easy to believe, but a lawyer and cool is much harder to imagine.

But I plan to take over the universe!

Okay, a couple of other questions.  When you access this site, do you notice the "kudos" given?  And your reputation points and who gives them?  I am sorry, but it is very difficult to imagine using the internet without sight.  Without sound for the internet is much easier to imagine.

And, if it is not too personal, why were you away from this site?  You seem like a breath of fresh air.  I hope you stick around for a while, at least as long as I do.

Is that even legal?

My reader does notice the kudos button when reading which can get annoying actually. However unless I actually search for my rep points VoiceOver doesn't read it. I was gone due physical illness (I have hydrocephalus and I get nausea and headaches that can be black out painful) and a bout of depression due to being ill.

I didn't realize you were blind, or a girl, for that matter. Sorry I've been so oblivious.
