    I'm a cloud-ed leopard!!

    Pretty funny, considering that I still have nightmares of a Kindergarten spelling test 20 years ago, when I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out how to spell 'Leopard'.

    Dear self, good job scaring yourself out of a night's worth of sleep by INSISTING on looking at the stupid photo everyone commented on as "creepy" and "scary" to see what was the thing you were missing out on seeing. Good job. Good job. Now, let's see how you'll stay awake for a whole day training course in reading instruction tomorrow...Stupid Facebook photo puzzle things...

    I'm with Pax: Chimpanzee

    "Soft and cuddly in nature, you have a big heart and love to hang around with lots of friends. You are very clever and good at problem solving and working with others. A very rare breed, you are one in a million."

    I'd like to think all that were true.

    Me too. I don't understand this because I said my perfect place is near the water.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    Ditto -- water and clouded leopard? I wondered about that too.

    Leopards are big swimmers.

    Ah, I was not aware. Never gave leopards too much thought until now!

    Thanks, SB!

    Dear Acquaintance,

    I don't think it is too much to ask for 2 complimentary entries into the 1-mile fun run in exchange for your design needs you have requested. It will easily take me 2-3 hours to complete your task (or longer), which, at my normal rate would be cost much more than the entry to your race.

    So, no, I'm not going to help you out. I have too much work to do. Need to pay the bills then play with my kids. Let someone else waste their evening on your project.

    Good for you! It's hard to say no sometimes. If you're doing volunteer work for event, you should get into the event for free.
