NPR archives turn me on. I'm an "early adopter" I apply suffixes liberally and as I please. I freckle. I talk too much when I drink Gin. I come from a family of unrepentant nicknamers. I can type faster than you. I have a very active Lizard brain. (look it up) I hate emails with the subjectline of "Hi" or "Hey".
I'm obsessed with the following:
*Brain Disorders/Neurology
*Twining science and anomalies
*Postal System
*Currency production & the Mint
*the Science of Language

ok soo, here's the deal i've been kinda busy with the "oh-so-wonderful" exams, so i havn't been able to get new pics up of Cleo. But, i though it'd send ya a little update. she's VERY comfortable around us now, (and my neighboor) and today she was VERY hyper! haha =] she loves to run and bat crumpled up post-it notes around on the floor, and she's been eating PLENTY! yes, and pooping as well.
Thanks, miss Hot Pants! I was listening to CJ on WMSE and heard the magnanimous shout out to me. Also, yes, we did go on the transatlantic cruise. I loved every minute of it. My default pic is from the deck of the QM2.
omg, THAT COMMENT IS SOOO CUTE. I miss you too. I am making a hopful visit the beginning of May. Hoepfully the weather will be amazing and we can do brunch. I crave Trocadero all the time. And we need to go out and tear up the town. I have no girls nights here.
