So I found myself taking bio courses as well as psych, found I liked psych better. Then psych and anthro and found I liked both the physical anthro aspects (reminded me of bio) and the cultural ones. And then I took some classes in history, found I could bring in some cultural studies to it, toss in some social psych and sociology to try and understand what motivates people and next thing you knew I'd changed majors, again. Meh, its all good. 10 years from now you could be running that preschool, or working as a crime scene tech with a pathologist formerly known as Danielle FTV.

As for Dildo, I assume you're referring to Dildo Bugger? Frito Bugger's nephew? You know Frito, went on a quest with Spam and a couple other short fat foul-mouthed dudes, that big Stomper guy, that not-so-good magician, Goodgulf to, I think it was, something Sorehead lost. Remember? Sorehead's possy, the Nozdrul were chasing Frito, Spam, et al all around (except when they went underground and were chased by the Ballhog)? Sorry, I see the word "dildo" and two things pop into my mind: 1. that the word derives from diletto, to delight & 2. the Harvard Lampoon book, Bored of the Rings.

BTW, Godiva translates as "Gift of God" (Godgifu in Anglo-Saxon).
Thats cool I didn't know Danielle wanted to be a pathologist... my friends mom is one, it's definately an interesting and well paying career choice. And it's interesting you mentioned anthro, I took keep switching thoughts on what I want to be. When I took Biobehavioral Anthro it really threw me for a loop because I loved it and I thought great one more thing to add to the list of what I want to do when I get older lol. Well Ill figure it out eventually

As for the second part of your post, ya lost me I have no clue who Dildo Bugger is, I suppose I should google him... ok just googled and since I really am not a fan of Lord of the Rings that's probably why I never heard of it's parody. Plus it came out 20 years before I was born but that doesn't say much since I am an oldies buff when it comes to certain topics. Anyhoo I still just love that word

And I never knew that Godiva meant gift from god... how appropriate!
