*ahem* *small, tentative cough at the mouth of the bear cave*
"May I join the clan please? I do hereby promise to honor and cherish all bears, especially the ones on TT."
Now that I've gotten up the gumption to ask, I have no idea of a name. I don't have a totem. I love watching the birds in my backyard. (You know, the ones the squirrels steal...errrrr...borrow from?

) I think my favorite is the chickadee: small, bright, bold. On the other hand, I have always said that someday, when I get down to a normal weight, I would finally get a tattoo: a phoenix rising from the ashes. (Yup, like Dumbledore's.)
Please and thank you!
