the SURLY GIRL the american people demand

The world's sexiest killing machine.

About Me

My name is Branwyn. Branwyn was the Celtic goddess of love, sexuality, and the sea. I'm a big dork who gets sea sick, so it has been suggested that I was named that for the same reasons that people call fat guys "Tiny" and short people "Stretch." That sounds about right.

My Interests

Television:

Teacher. Mother. Secret Lover.

Books:

Comic books have pretty pictures. Go buy a lot of them at Comic Relief - right now!

Heroes:

Lernis & Ayize - Lernis just bought me a taco & Ayize delivered it.

My Blog

Empire of Consumption

So, this is it...

I picked up Norma Rae's ashes this morning on my way to work. My mom has asked for some of the ashes, but other than that, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Of course, there's the Keith Richard's rou...

And then there were four.

So I just had Norma Rae euthanized. She was my very first kitty, and I can't remember exactly when I got her, but she lived at least 16 years. She picked me. I hadn't even seen her yet, but something ...

I will be $764 richer.

I decided to calculate how much I'll save over the next year since I cancelled my cable. I was paying $64 a month. So yeah, I'll have $764 more over the next 12 months than I otherwise would. Wow, I r...

I could be at least $1,825 richer.

If I quit caffeine that is. That figure is based on my estimate that I am spending an average of at least $5 a day on caffeinated beverages. But nothing is happening until after the accruals are done.
