there is nothing new under the sun

was idly tinkering with web stuff and looked up a couple of old screen names i used to use...there is just no being original anymore. there is a chick in nova scotia who uses one of 'my' names and probably to much greater effect than i ever did (and the other one turns out to be a brand name for something very unsavoury, but i didn't know that at the time, i swear!).

but in reading through this woman's blog and profile, i was struck by how similar we are. both 29, so both born in the year of the dragon (obviously), we both like tori amos, sarah mclachlan, margaret atwood, and the lord of the rings.

except she's a science person and her favourite food is pickled beets. i have nothing against those with a science-bent, but i can't say beets figure anywhere in my list of preferred foods.

as for an original screen name...is it a lost cause?
