Mr. Marrionette

That's his name for now, anyway. Doesn't he kick a$$?! I think so. My challenge, for those parties concerned (this includes you, sister dear) is to come up with a name deserving of his most sinister countenance. When I first saw him, I thought "Rasputin," but he was Russian, wasn't he? We need a Slavic name, something like "Vlad." OK, maybe that's Romanian... The point is, names people, suggest some NaMeS!!

And yes, his eyes are PINK! How cool is that?!

How I spent my Valentine's Day

Getting flowers from a boy, you ask? No, I spent my Valentine's Day doing my very first C-section on a cow!! That's right, along with five other students on the clinical reproduction rotation, we performed a C-section on a cow! I got to block her (so she wouldn't feel what was going on) and close two layers. We named the little boy calf "Val" in honour of his auspicious birth. How d'ya like that?!
