Because Green best defines me (or perhaps because I define Green more than other Ajahs)  Depends on the perspective, I guess.  Either way, we fit.

I chose Green because it was filled with women I love and admire who put up with my crap when I need it and kick my ass when I need it. They have things in common with me. I am a survivor and a fighter, and they are too. I am frequently exasperated by men, but love them (partially because of the exasperation, and partially in spite of it), and we share this quality also. But more than any of this, I chose Green because if there were no one left in my Ajah but me, it would still be Green.

Anni 2010 was my first function, and I'm totally addicted.  Its like a drug to walk into a room full of people you've never met before, or met briefly, and yet know most of them.  Knowing each other on the boards makes face to face meeting a heady experience, because friendship is more likely to explode into full bloom rather than having to grow. When it happens 80 times in the space of a weekend, its an amazing experience!
