| Introduction | Where to start? Well, start at the beginning, as the Mad Hatter said, and when you get to the end...stop. I'm 25, married, and living in the mountains. I'm a student at Virginia Tech, working towards a BS in Crop & Soil Environmental Sciences (yeah, it's a long major) with a focus in agro-ecology, and a BA in Philosophy. My husband and I welcomed our son into the world on February 6 of this year. We hadn't planned on a family so soon, but if it's happening, it must be for a reason! My philosophy is this: Every moment could be your last. Never let an opportunity go by to tell the people you love how much they mean to you. Always ask yourself, "What can I learn today?" And above all, never let anyone else tell you how to live your life. Only you will know what is important to you. "All you touch and all you see / Is all your life will ever be" ~Pink Floyd |

How is an ankle unlike a consequence?
Well, one's a body part, and one's an abstract concept. Plus they're spelled differently, with a different number of syllables. Aside from that, I'm not really sure.
