Let's get to know each other!

2. Any kiddos now or in the future?
3. Do you have a stupid human trick?
4. Pro-choice or Anti-choicer?
5. If you had a choice between being the top scientist in your field or getting mad cow disease, what would it be?
Re: Let's get to know each other!

2. Any kiddos now or in the future?
2 now. 1 more via adoption. Never will another baby pass this birth canal.

My finger is perma-broken and it bends all funky. Oh, and I have zero feeling in my hands, my friends frequently take advantage of this fun fact.

Mad cow. Hands down.

3. Do you have a stupid human trick? Does being a stupid human count?
4. Pro-choice or Anti-choicer? It's complicated. I would never do it, but I'm not about to judge others. What does that make me, because I have no clue. Anti/Pro?
5. If you had a choice between being the top scientist in your field or getting mad cow disease, what would it be? Mad cow disease. It just sounds cooler.

My Blog
Yes, for 3.46 years (I did the math). I didn't get married until my 30's, so I skipped the starter husband.

I can put on my lipstick while holding it in my bra.
Wait, that's Molly Ringwald in Breakfast Club. No, I don't have one.

I like choices, but they get overwhelming sometimes. I prefer having veto power.

This is a tough one. On one hand, there's so much pressure to publish, publish, publish, not to mention all the grantwriting crap. On the other hand, mad cows.

You will never be a top scientist if you don't.
I read them all! If I hadn't I would have missed the awesome answers Kirks gave.
Not really, though.
