Angel Diva
When I talk about TheSkiDiva on a chair with a stranger, I don't mention my username at all. Usually don't start unless there's been enough conversation that I have some sense that the woman/women might be interested on any sort of online forum. That only happens perhaps 25% of the time when I'm in a conversational mood.I dunno, as someone who posts a lot of goofball stuff, I'm not 100% sure that I want my Diva handle widely known in real life!
When I'm doing a solo ski safari, I'm much more likely to keep an eye out for someone to chat with on the lift ride. Especially at smaller mountains midweek. I may even follow a skier for a run or two before riding up with them. Have had a good time doing a few runs with people that way this season. Included the group of ladies who are locals at Jiminy Peak. Met them in Jan. And then skied with them again a few weeks ago for the powder morning. One of them recognized me even though I had a different jacket.
