Temerarius: recklessly daring or posthumously.

Then finally sleep.

Everyone but me

The Not-So-Secret Community of Super Heroes and Heroines

Mom - has been keeping my hands flecked with paint and sticky with glue since I can remember. She's always taught me to see the potential in things.

Dad - has been teaching me to catch frogs since I was smaller than a bullrush. He also puts up with my ungodly attempts to sing along with Sarah Brightman and Phantom of the Opera.

Penguin - boyfriend of 5+ years and now my fiance. We used to live about 2000km apart and finally moved in together in 2012.

Scarlett - my best friend from medical school, who introduced me to Neko Case, ginger syrup, and other amazing things.

Constellation - Scarlet's husband and a lovely gent who makes amazing food and plays some wicked Ultimate.

Lemonriffic - my best friend from undergrad, who now owns a Bed and Breakfast on the Bruce Peninsula. Lemonriffic introduced me to Modest Mouse, U2, and the broiler element on my stove. She sends the best mail imaginable.

Carpe - is a fellow general surgery resident and incidentally my doppleganger! This tiny but mighty bundle of energy goes after life with all the punch and vigor of your favourite cab sauv: bold, strong, and delightful.

The Green Machine - a dear friend from High School who also went to Carleton with me in undergrad. We've done band together, swam Masters together, and generally been a dynamic duo for years.

Steel Wheels - a close friend from medical school and my clerkship rotation buddy. Steel Wheels once rode her bike across Canada!

The Real Deal - a close friend from med school who continues to amaze us all by always finding time to play hard, work hard, and still spend time with his 2 kids and outstanding wife.

Jack - a close friend from med school who is as tall as I am short. Jack is now married to a firecracker of a woman and continues to allow himself to be dragged up mountains all in the name of friendship and love.

Lao Tzu - a close friend from med school who is a wise old man trapped in a young man's body. He has an amazing wife and one of the most beautiful, expressive babies you'll ever meet.

My Favourite Lyrics in Life

you are a miracle but that is not all, you are also a stiff drink and i am on call. you are a party and i am a school night and i'm lookin' for my door key but you are my porch light- and you'll never know, dear, just how much i loved you, you'll probably think this was just my big excuse. but i stand committed to a love that came before you and the fact that i adore you is but one of my truths. what kind of scale compares the weight of two beauties, the gravity of duties, or the ground speed of joy? tell me what kind of gauge can quantify elation? what kind of equation could i possibly employ? ~Ani D
