Bio
I like lists, rain, exotic pets (sugar gliders in particular, for now), and crossword puzzles. I can spend hours on Wikipedia reading up on particularly psychotic or sociopathic criminals. I have an unhealthy love for Swiffer-brand cleaning products, as well as office supplies and innovative storage designs.

I hate beets, cranial sutures, dishwashers, dogs, and sunshine. Hot days make me nauseated.

I can get quite mouthy when my blood sugar is low, and I enjoy scattering awful puns throughout my conversations. You'll know them by my knee-slapping.

I am afraid of hurting my security blanket's feelings. His name is Wuby.

"Anything that can be done to a rat can be done to a human being. And we can do most anything to rats. This is a hard thing to think about, but it's the truth. It won't go away because we cover our eyes."
-Bruce Sterling


"I would love to believe that when I die I will live again, that some thinking, feeling, remembering part of me will continue. But as much as I want to believe that, and despite the ancient and worldwide cultural traditions that assert an afterlife, I know of nothing to suggest that it is more than wishful thinking."
-Carl Sagan


"[...] in breathless suspense, we follow the hero and the heroine, as, after a violent death, they are given a brief second chance for happiness on the earth."
"Nevertheless, the two main characters meet tragedy because they remain enslaved to their past, not recognizing the liberty of action which they are capable of exercising [...]"

-Jean-Paul Sartre, Les Jeux Sont Fais


"Tics are described as semi-voluntary or "unvoluntary",[9] because they are not strictly involuntary—they may be experienced as a voluntary response to the unwanted, premonitory urge. A unique aspect of tics, relative to other movement disorders, is that they are suppressible yet irresistible;[10] they are experienced as an irresistible urge that must eventually be expressed.[9]"
