You da man, Geonagual. And you da best!

You know who helped me with my avatar? Minnesota Man!!! I wouldn't be Birdgirl without him. The strangest thing is I'm not at all birdlike, unless perhaps you consider the gawky long-leggedness of an ostrich. I'm sort of afraid of birds, to be honest. But the nickname came from my husband's references to me as "Bird," as in "chick."
