well it's about time i know who i came from
Sick day, UGH. In the last week, I got turned down for giving blood (low iron--never happened to me before), experienced heartburn for the first time (I thought I might be having a heart attack for a good hour before W told me what it was), I got food poisoning, and now I am taking a sick day for actually being sick. (!borrrring) These bones is getting old.I started this masterpiece a while ago but didn't make it very far until bedrest today (thanks gramma for the pedigree charts!). This is the maternal side of my family tree, presented here on my split pea bedroom wall.
For most lines it goes back to my fourth great-grandparents, many of whom have very cool names (like george washington and samuel jackson, for instance). When I get dad's side up, there will be a veritable bow tie of family togetherness in my little cave of a room. It's a small start, but here's to Elijah.
this is how it works:
there is an aroma in the silicon (lemongrass for the yellow ones) of the shade so that it lets of aromatic pleasantries for your nose when the light bulb heats up. 

good job,
