How do your reading habits stack up?? (stole it from Auntie Pita) (blog entry) The BBC believes most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here.

Instructions:

about me
I am no longer the ultimate answer according to Douglas Adams, but DAMN, I kick ass!!! I am feeling better and more self assured every day of my life. I know how to laugh at myself, I can take a joke, listen when someone needs a person to listen, be quiet and not judge until I know all the facts and believe in myself. All younger women should NOT fear growing older, it gets better and better. I am loving my tiny crows feet and the maturity of my face. It makes me look different and better than the unformed child I was many years ago. I am a "Kick Ass Girl of the Millenium"!!! I will always be a girl and a woman and any other label you can think of, most of all I can and will be myself.

I got my new baby and all gadgets and gizmos 2 days ago, been having a good time with her. I received my new laptop bag in the mail today, double excitement!! Until, I went to put Saffy (MY puters name is Singapore Sunset Saphron) in her new bag. Guess what??? Yuppers, I forgot to get measurements when I ordered a pre-made bag for my laptop. Saffy is too big dammit!! I feel like an idiot. Well, as soon as I get a job, I shall buy a correct sized bag for Saffy.

My Testimonials

March 10, 2008
Hmmm Caitlin can be part Lucy Riccardo, part Albert Einstein.. and here's the scary part- when angered-part NASGUL. She sometimes hides her smarts under that red hair- but truly piss her off and she'll shriek down on you like a Stuka over Dunkirk. And do similar damage. If you're her friend she can be sis, mom, and mother hen. And male or female, one of the most intelligent people you'll ever be blessed with meeting.
Many people don't understand her honor system. It's cause it's very simple-she puts it in order-family , friends, then herself. Those that put themselves first can't understand why she gets pissed off. I don't think I've met a more selfless person in my life. She is God-like in this respect. Seriously. Test her and see. To your own peril-or benefit.
To know her is to love her. Plain and simple. The only thing complicated about her is her brain. Talk to her about anything you will find red waters run DEEP! Like Marianas trench-deep.
I am honored to call her friend. I miss her here till it hurts. And counting the days till she comes home.

Unsu...

Our own personal "Lucy". Caitlynn continues to amaze me, from the day I met her, to today when she's 2000 miles away, and missed like Christmas. You're a true blue friend(fiend?) and I forgive your being related to what's his name. She is the "unsinkable Caitlynn Brown"; her optimism and do or die attitude is infectious; she's really just a big Leprechaun, who conspires with the Gods of mischief and misrule to bring smiles to her friends and family. Under "intergrity" in the dictionary- it mentions her by name. One of these days Dame Fortuna will catch up with her, and pay her back for her good deeds, and I wanna be in her vicinity to catch the overflow. I only know two ladies who can really put me in my place- I married the other one.
You're an awesome babe and I love you like a sister.
