[GSBN] "Tanjyoubi Omedeto Gozaimasu, YakWoman" 1/11/11

[Kelly Lerner]

Thanks Rob!
I AM a Wood Dragon. January 11, 1965. http://www.chinesezodiac.com/calculator.php  It says that dragons make good architects, too. So there. 

See smoke coming out of my nose? 

Maybe I'll have to get a wood dragon tattooed on my side and half way up my back (or maybe I've already got one... ;) - you'll never find out over email.

1/11/11 is a FIRST for me and promises to be a great year. Sweden and the Baltic are cool (literally) all on their own, but I must admit to enjoying the food, wine and warmth of Italy at Christmas just a wee bit more.

Next stop Gaudi and Barcelona for March! Anyone know anyone that has an two bedroom apartment to rent in Barcelona starting March 1? Throw me all your leads offline. 

I'm so grateful for my far flung strawbale family. Cheers and thanks all! 

För min födelsedag, låt oss tillbringa mars i Barcelona!
