my friend Dan wrote the most awesome bio about "the jiggler" character:

The Jiggler

In 1977, the Carter administration, famous for its blatant disregard for environmental issues, poured 1,500 metric tons of nuclear waste in ravine behind a Jell-O factory in Northern Virginia.

Enter Mama Lofaro. Mama was born into a family of Italian immigrants (re: wops) who raised their children on nothing but piss, vinegar, and the sugary goodness of Bill Cosby-endorsed products. By the time Mama was sixteen, her blood was comprised of three percent plasma and ninety-seven percent gelatin.

As soon as Mama graduated the tenth grade, she took a job as a night watchwoman at the Jell-O factory. There, she met a mysterious Scandinavian wrestler named Sven. Mama was taken with Sven and his penchant for lutefisk, cookie salad, and other culinary delights of the upper Midwest. Sven was taken with Mama’s willingness to put out.

After forty-five glorious seconds of carnal knowledge in the toxic ravine, Mama was fertizilized by Sven’s now toxic seed. Nine months later, Mama and Sven had unwittingly unleashed a new form of hell onto this earth: the Jiggler.

At 5’ 2”, the Jiggler may not immediately intimidate. But don’t let her stature fool you; this chick will fuck you up six ways till Sunday. With patented moves such as the “Three Point Jiggler Leglock” and the “Jell-O Shot to your Ball Sac,” you will beg whatever God you pray to for mercy. And after she finishes fucking your tattered ass up, she’ll serve you seven flavors of pudding to watch you cry while you eat it.

So..sorry I was slacking on the posts ..grad school starts on Monday and in the past few weeks I had major ($$$$) repairs done to my car, started the process of refinancing my home, went to the northern neck w/soem friends then OBX for a few days with my family and then went to grad school orientaion.
So classes start Monday. I am taking a full load - 9 credits, 3 classes, plus working at mitre full time, and being on call and picking up shifts at rock bottom b/c this whole grad school thing aint cheap. and the 2 buck pints are essential for my mental well being. one bonus about living in un cool fairfax, is that I live less than 2.5 miles from school! I'm going to attempt not to purchase a parking pass. yay save me 200 bucks that I already spent on books.
So this site may morph from a postings of things to do in the area (which will most likely be free or very cheap events) and other random fun facts and links to musings or tips about how to make it in the world of nova as a full time student, working professional and such and all that it entails. exciting i know. no worries, i'll make it worth your bookmark/RSS.
