As I said, I am the youngest of seven children all born to the same mother and father. Greg, Sue, Mark, Doug, Geoff and Jon all proceeded me, and in Greg’s case was 21 by the time I was born on Thanksgiving 1985. Yes, that was the year that my sister Sue, who inherited none of our mother’s cooking skills, attempted to complete the half finished Thanksgiving meal. To say the least my family ate in the hospital with my mother and me that year.
I grew up in New Hampshire (Same as Vermont, just right side up) had a delightful childhood in the woods surrounding my house and am now a student at the University of Chicago studying Near Eastern Civilizations and Languages. Other than that…you will have to ask, sorry!

Welcome to HOP Moles!
Great intro
And fear not re: being off. Most of us are slightly wonky around here.
So, what's your preference? poi, staff, fire, glo, juggle? Tell us stuff!

So where are you going with Near Eastern Civilizations and Languages?
re: being welcomed by a mod.. you must be someone important! I, apparently, am not special enough for them to engage me yet..

Egypt! Let me know when you're going so I can pack myself into your suitcase in advance!
Is what you're studying more anthropology or linguistics?
