Lots of fun, isn't it? And by the way, I am always happy to meet someone who knows how to use (and spell!) the word "piqued." :-) Thanks for stopping by, Suko. Lots of fun, isn’t it?

I, too, borrowed this meme from Kate, who got it from Melanie. :) Your first lines are divine, and your September opening has piqued my curiosity.

I think it either needs me to be logged into the email addresses I associate with it -- or this is the one place it doesn't seem to work. Hm.

I wish I could control that. I'd love to create my own set of images and stick them in instead. I should check the controls of this WordPress theme to see if I can do that somehow. You can actually go to <a href="http://en.gravatar.com/" rel="nofollow">Gravatar</a> to get, well, a Gravatar that follows you around the Net and appears beside any comments you make on blogs etc. I finally got one, though it took a while for it to "take." (It's the same one I use on Twitter.) But that's how you see people making comments here and having their own chosen avatars beside their posts. Hee! I wish I could control that.
