An idea stolen from other journals...
Twenty random facts about me. Prepare to be underwhelmed.
1. The seeds of my vegetarianism began in Wales back when I was 10. I saw all of the sheep on the hillsides and resolved not to eat them any more. It took me about 13 years to give up meat altogether.
2. Please don't take your blood pressure in my presence or discuss it. It makes me want to pass out.
3. The sound of Styrofoam to me is like nails on a chalkboard to others.
4. I think that I weight a little less now than I did when I was in high school.
5. I've been lucky as hell in regards to travel in my life: my mom's side of the family are all in the UK, my paternal grandfather lived in the Virgin Islands, and I was able to go to both numerous times.
6. I might be related to Alexander Hamilton.
7. I might be related to "Mayflower Madam" Sydney Biddle Barrows.
8. I was in attendance the night that the New Jersey Devils won their first Stanley Cup. Sweet.
9. At least one person refers to me as "Chilly, The Elf Who Cannot Love."
10. I can't be around any one human continuously for more than a few days without wanting to get away. Isn't it amazing that I'm not married?
11. Seattle is terrific, but I'm thinking that I'll be moving again within 5 years.
12. Commitment of most stripes freaks me out.
13. No matter how much can go right in life, I tend to think I'll worry. No matter how fortunate my circumstances could ever be, I think that I'll always wonder if there's an underlying purpose to anything we do.
14. The Three Stooges are funny.
15. Political science was once my major in college.
16. I refer to The Simpsons at least a few times a day.
17. I don't read books very much.
18. I can't stand when people uniformly say that TV sucks. It's a medium, people. It can be great or it can suck...just like books, radio, movies, and smoke signals.
19. I'm a sexual camel (not to be confused with the_flaccidkeith and his sexual inclinations for dromedaries). I don't *like* long droughts, but I've learned how to deal with them. If a lack of sex is my biggest problem at any given time, I'm damned lucky.
20. Rain and darkness appeal to me. No wonder I like Seattle winters.
Back to Seattle on Monday night. Let's hope that the rooomate doesn't burn the place down in the meantime.

How did the talk go?
my day was just about working....and work was not too busy, in case i didn't tell you before, i work the front desk at an animal hospital. The animals are a lot more kinder than the people.
Glad you had a good time tonight
Today it was one in between, got to see a few puppies and kittens, and had to deal with a few euthanasias. All in a days work i suppose. Glad to hear you had a good night.
I'm off to bed, i will talk to you soon (probably tomm. nite) Have a good one
