Haha. This image with the following text ran in Tsunami mag this month for their contributor profile box.
If you can be bothered, perhaps you'd like to answer the non-Tsunami related questions in the comments box. I think that would be nice.
Anyway, hello. This is me-in-a-nutshell.

Dream Job: Freelance writer, but with a livable income.

SCRUBBERS!!!!!!!!!!
I hate those things where the person answers the questions with cute answers and you don't really get an idea of what the person is really like.
now i'm trying to figure out if quick's answer's are cute or not. But anyway, what I was going to say, is siamese fighting fish rock as a non-pet. they try to challenge you to a dual everytime you get close to their tank and they like doing headstands...
Somebody get Margarita Milongita some scrubbers! Apparently she wants to do some scrubbing! LOTS OF VIGOROUS SCRUBBING!!!!!
Nice point, anonymous. The one on the top of your head, I mean.
No more pets, Gin. They make me sad when they die.
