Erinaceous:

er•i•na•ceous [er-uh-ney-shuhs] a. like, or characteristic of, a hedgehog.

I thought you might enjoy that. I sometimes wonder if I'll get to tell someone that they look "very erinaceous today," and have them think that my nonchalant use of such an unheard of word was a compliment. But really, I'll be calling them a porcupine. :D I don't know, though, I'm usually not that mean. Out loud, anyway. You'll have to help me look for someone to say that to.

Do you know who Alexander Supertramp is? Are you sure?
Because his real name is Chris McCandless, and I really wish I could have known him. He was right around my neck of the woods, too- just the wrong decade entirely.

I wonder if his chosen pseudonym had anything to do with the UK band, Supertramp.

But seriously, if you haven't, and you have a fairly open mind, you should read Into the Wild, by John Krakauer.

Oh, boy. I love Christmas Music. Don't get me wrong: I'd probably love Kwanzaa music too if I heard any. It's all so cheery. Except for Do You Hear What I Hear?. The movie Gremlins kind of ruined that for me.

:D
