I've never heard of this before today, but a friend sent me an IM earlier that read (paraphrased):

Ever since I was in Junior High I've wanted to be a writer. I fell in love with books in Elementary school, but not until I moved to Maryland in the early-to-mid 1980's did I think about becoming a writer as a career choice. As luck would have it, however, ...

I'm so busy during the course of a normal day that I tend to not post here, even if I want to. I need to stop that.
