well then

I'm sitting on a long post about fanfic that I intend to finish and post later today, but I just got an email telling me that someone from a part of family I'm relatively unfamiliar with has just added me to a family tree.

This is really cool.

Of course I can't see it from work because we still use IE6, but I really do think that's kind of neat. This is a portion of the family that came over from Poland, so I'm really excited to see that part and what comes from where. I don't really identify as a nationality (as some people can say "I'm Irish" or "I'm Italian" etc; I basically say, "I'm a mutt" or "I'm Heinz 57 Flavors") but I really do think it will be neat-o to trace these things back and see. Maybe I'm just a nerd (WHO KNEW) and I like organizational nerdy things (WHO KNEW (*HUMPS EXCEL*)).

yeah.

goddamn I love me some excel.

I get you on the mutt thing plus wanting to know what the hell you are. I say I'm half-Filipino and half-white, but what that really means I'm half from the Eastern Hemisphere and half from the Western.

Ooooh! I get such a boner from family trees. I've worked on mine for something like six years now and still get a total hard-on everytime I find another link to another person. That whole 'look up the fucking family' thing is just as addictive as sex and coffee, m'dear, except a bit cleaner.

I've been into the genealogy thing for awhile. Try Rootsweb; it's free and I managed to find a lady who had my great-great-great grandfather's journal from 1875 and a bunch of pictures. Lovely stuff.
