A few years ago, it seems like a flash to me (3rd grade?), I was obsessed with Australia. I wish I knew what caused this infatuation with the continent/country but it came upoun me like a fever. I remember going to my school library and getting a good stack of books on it, the librarian said, "why are you so interested in australia?" The first thing that came to my mind was lizards. Just like that that, half a blink of an eye, I said "lizards." Of course the librarian already knew about my interest in dinosaurs and their kin, this was before I learned that dinosaurs evolved into birds, I was just on the cusp. (now i cant imagine velociraptors without feathers! BUT i will scoff at a T Rex with feathers. Oh, you shouldve been there the first time i saw Sue. I wouldve wept if i was by myself. (i hope i'm reincarnated as a therepod))
