I sometimes wish I had a clone. I can genuinely say we’d be best buds. One of us could study to become an ornithologist while the other became the World’s Most Awesome Front End Developer. And we could draw comics together as a team. We’d be so tight! I wonder how many people can say that about themselves?

    I used to wear goggles as a fashion accessory all the time. They kinda became my my “thing”. I was the goggles girl. But it wasn’t great for my hear and I started to get sick of people asking me if I was Ramona Flowers,so I don’t wear ‘em so much anymore.

    If I had a clone, we’d spend all our time fighting over who gets to destroy the world…
