Hello, lurkers! I'm Shir, and this is my real name (stands for song/poem in Hebrew). I'm from Israel (yes. THAT Israel), came here after Nilly showed me the way, so if my English sucks, that's why it is. Delurked in March 2008, and loving every moment since.
I'm a student, aiming to study and implementation of said studies regarding rehabilitation of post-war societies. I think I might be the youngest of all b.orgers I met online so far. I plan to stay a student for the time being and the foreseeable future, since I love studying very much. You may hear me complain very often from time to time about how my university keeps me from studying as much as I'd like to.
I love hitting people in my imagination, and as most people here reminds me often, I'm also capable of using M-16.
Mostly can be found in Bitches, trying to keep up with Natter from time to time, and following some other threads as well.
Shir's English does not suck.
srsly. i mean...who here could write in hebrew? Nilly, you don't count!
and, now that I know Glee is in Comedy (why did I not think of that?), you will probably find me there, too.

Guess writing a proper intro would be polite. Also: more fun than cleaning my house.
My real name is Cindy. You already had one of those when I registered, so I used my dog's name because I was feeling uninspired and she was in my line of sight. The other choices were "Pile o' Papers" or "Things I Do Not Want to Do Today."
I'm 43, a stay at home mom in Northern Virginia who may one day get back to a writing and editing career. Job hunting sucks. Serial commas rock. I have no plans to try muffeletta (dislike olives).
I have never supported you in e-mail. I have supported some of you in bookstores. You return the favor by tempting me with mentions of even more cool books and TV shows. Unfortunately my DVR is 71 percent full and rising and my to-read pile overflows two large bookcases. Sometimes I decide to unsubscribe so you don't tempt me any more. The decision lasts as long as it takes to click "Read New" one last time.
My original intention when I registered was to get involved in the conversation, and I have actually delurked for a random post or two before. It never sticks due to shyness, doubts about what I'd add to the conversation, and the conviction that I really don't need another time-consuming habit given my long to-do list, short attention span, and tendency to get distracte-
