I married my cousin. Really. We are distantly related, but it is still really funny to see peoples reactions.

I sang my way through college in blues bars and coffee shops

I read really eclectic stuff: from neourpsych (for fun) and Bocie Rippin' romace novels

  • You are my kinda friend, Molly, you really think out of the box! OK, since you started, three things about me:

    I put myself through college, and was the first to graduate in my entire extended family in 4 generations - took a lot of fighting family to get through it, but once I graduated, they sort of understood. Love 'em anyway.

    I pick up a mug from every new place that I go. My favorite is a expresso cup from a little cafe in Italy.

    I started my first home business as an architectural archival photographer. I love black and white photos.

  • yes I do. And I loved it for the most part, but groping drunken frat boys and townies were never a welcome event. I did meet great musicians though. I miss the old days when singing and writing music was an ever present thing in my life.

  • Cousins, eh?

    Singing your way through college sounds romantic. I bet you have some good stories to tell...

  • That has been the running joke...but we don't really have them.

    The Definition here is from Wikapedia, thought it would be a lot more thorough than my explanation:Neuropsychology is an interdisciplinary branch of psychology and neuroscience that aims to understand how the structure and function of the brain relate to specific psychological processes and overt behaviors. The term neuropsychology has been applied to both lesion studies of humans and animals and efforts to record electrical activity from individual cells (or groups of cells) in higher primates (including some studies of human patients).[1]

    It is scientific in its approach and shares an information processing view of the mind with cognitive psychology and cognitive science.

    It is one of the more eclectic of the psychological disciplines, overlapping at times with areas such as neuroscience, philosophy (particularly philosophy of mind), neurology, psychiatry and computer science (particularly by making use of artificial neural networks).

    In practice neuropsychologists tend to work in academia (involved in basic or clinical research), clinical settings (involved in assessing or treating patients with neuropsychological problems - see clinical neuropsychology), forensic settings (often assessing people for legal reasons or court cases or working with offenders, or appearing in court as expert witness) or industry (often as consultants where neuropsychological knowledge is applied to product design or in the management of pharmaceutical clinical-trials research for drugs that might have a potential impact on CNS functioning).

    Light reading.

  • Tee-hee! I have cousins (distant) that are married, and yes, people always shrink away from that. Funny!

    And I know of several people married to "step-siblings," who they met as teenagers or adults, after one of their parents connected with the other parent.
