    Sounds like a superhero to me. Just make sure you use your new found powers for good :)

    Nice.

    We just nicknamed a guy at work here Blue Magic the other day. We were having all kinds of problems with our fluid (that we pump into the earth) and spent 5 hours trying to figure out why, when we discovered that he had been cleaning his equipment with “Blue Magic” instead of “Simple Green,” and that the Blue Magic was jacking with the chemistry and causing all of our problems. 5 hours.

    Why is it that all the great, creative minds are also the most fly-like and scattered?

    Luv.

    Chris’ nickname…hrmmm…I often call him grumpy pants. Not because he’s grumpy. He just looks that way when he is waking up. ;)

    Drho…that would be a very short book. :)

    Funny, that name so describes me lately. My thighs are starting to look like horse legs … I run downstairs to get something … hmm, why did I come down … run back upstairs to stand in the spot where I had been originally inspired … run back downstairs and get distracted yet again. Too much going on.

    That’s ok Distracto, my friends call me “Dory” from Nemo. (I’m all over the place all at the same time, and I can’t remember anything for longer than like 2 seconds).

    Hopefully he said it affectionately! ;)
