Like so many of the others, I simply cannot type an email or a post on PT or any other group when others are in the room. That's why you see me post mostly during the day, or in the evenings (like now) when no one is awake or my husband is out of town.

I almost think of Pet Talk as my own personal place........although nothing I would post would embarass me with my husband or my daughter, I feel better doing it when no one is looking!

Ok ok...........I'll confess. I'm like so many of you in this. I cannot post on PT, type emails, chat, etc. if there's someone behind me. Its not that I'm saying anything I can't say in front of them. That's not it at all. I just don't like other people *hearing* when I'm talking to someone and not them.....you know? Even when I chat with my cousin, my own cousin, if my brother comes in the room, I tell him to go away. The reason is.........because I just don't like talking to someone in front of someone else, who's not part of the conversation. And when I talk to my cousin, well its his cousin too, so he keeps quickly typing things on the keyboard to say things to her, and it ruins my conversation. LOL

As for PT, yes, I do close the screen when someone comes in as well. I was on PT the other day, but not on my computer........I was near the desk. Anyway, my brother comes in, so I go back to the computer and close the window. He asks me *what were you doing?* Me........*Oh........just reading some stuff about pets on a pet website.* Him........*You and your EXTREME love for animals! * and walks out. Hehehe. He has an EXTREME love for animals too........he just likes to tease me about it. He doesn't know about PT..........not that much. He knows I go to pet boards and read about pets, but that's about it. But he does the same thing (closing screens when he's chatting with friends/cousins etc). I don't think much of anyone feels comfortable when talking to someone and someone else comes. Even my dad tells me to go away when he's writing an email. Hehehe. But when my mom comes, if I'm looking at someone's pets' pics, I leave it open, and she always comments on how cute they are. Sometimes I close it, sometimes I leave it open..............but when my brother comes, I ALWAYS close it, because with him, I know I'll never hear the end of it.

I don't mind my family knowing though. My parents know and I took their permission before I joined. Outside my family.......my friends.......I don't want them to know about it *AT ALL*. When my friends come over, we often use my computer together.........so before them come, I delete PT off my history. Only because, I really really really don't want my friends to know. They don't need to. He he he he
