Name: Jen, Though I prefer to go by Puppy or pup on the interwebs
Location: Michigan, USA
Hometown: Detroit
Birthday (sign?): Libra, though I have been informed that I am a Virgo Libra cusp.
Age: 32
Sex: Fembot
Occupation(s): Application Developer
Favorite Food(s): Depends on the day. Today it is sushi
Favorite Color(s): Its always a combo of black and (insert color here). Lately it has been black and hot pink, but I am starting to feel a black and purple phase coming on.
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? What do you mean? An African or European swallow?
Toys: I just bought a set of poi that I have to wait two whole weeks for. It is going to be a long 2 weeks.
Hobbies other than the obvious: Bead weaving, knitting, crocheting , sewing, spinning (fiber, into yarns), dying (said yarns), belly dancing
Education: Associates degree
Favorite Book(s): Mostly the classics, and Discworld. I will miss you deeply, Sir Pratchett. Lately I have been on a Christopher Moore kick
Favorite Movie(s): Meh
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? Yay, sports.
Favorite TV show(s): This changes all the time too, although I have really been enjoying QI
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) I spent the last two years educating myself, and just recently got a job in my field, and for the first time in my life I feel uninhibited enough to try to spin fire. I have wanted to for years. I know it is going to be a long time before I actually light them up, but that is what I really want to do at this point. That is my big aspiration.
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: My tastes differ wildly, I like some music from just about every genre I have encountered. I am partial to heavy dubstep, and my favorite composer is Bach.
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? Did you want an honest answer? Because if you cannot handle blunt and honest, it is best not to ask me.
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Chocolate. What else is there?
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* **Deep breaths**
So on the all important subject posed above, and keeping in mind that I am and always will be honest, None.
I have never tried Marmite nor Vegemite. I have never had the chance. I would absolutely try both, given the chance. When it comes to Nutella, It's not my bag, baby. I have tried it, I kinda think it is "meh" at best. However, to all you who choose to worship St. Hazelnut, I respect your lifestyle choices. I will not troll your deep philosophical discussions, I will not try to sway you to the Dark (chocolate) side. I hope we can live in peace. (Pleasedon'tsetmeonfireI'mnotreadytoburnjustyet)

Well thanks!
If my parcel arrived early, it would be amazing. All I can think about is spinning. I am on pins and needles waiting for them to arrive. I am not going to get my hopes up, but I really want to start now. I have considered going out to buy the stuff for some DIY poi in the mean time. Husbeast promised me some veil poi in Juy/Augest if I keep at practicing. So excited!

They are here!
They were here when I got home. My fingers hurt, my arms feel like lead, and I cannot figure out how I want to hold them, but I have them!
A lot heavier than I expected them to be, and very bright! I love them!
