ReLo'd to BA from SD

in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)

Level 10 was my nemesis, too. Dang Africa, such a friggin huge continent. Even if you get it on the right continent, you're bound to be way off if you're semi-guessing.

Speaking of not guessing wrong, I thought I'd merely like Sweeny Toddy (being a big Tim Burton fan), but I'm happy to report that I actually enjoyed it, musical and all. Went out and bought songs from the soundtrack from iTunes..."Little Priest" cracks me up ("quite a lot of fat...only where he sat"). Hmmm, meat pies, aarrhh.

Oops, had too much meat pie on my mind to spell check my note (Toddy).

Only level 5, IQ=88, but since I went to a state school in New York AND studied civil engineering, that's pretty great.

Meat Pie? That does not sound like a good dessert.

billn ... give the usa geo category a spin. (and that world geo category - it ain't easy-breezy; my friends travel - so that's where my stabs in the dark got me to 10, i'm thinking.)

OK, me and my myoptic, USA-only world made it to level 6 of 8, IQ of 108. What the he** is the "city too busy to hate?"
