Hello everyone. I'm new to the forums and wanted to say howdy. My name is Andrea and I'm from Texas. I usually describe myself as: Mom, Cat Butler, Grammar Police, Lego Enthusiast, Card Collector, and Software Engineer.
I write webapps to support clinical research and bioinformatics at the UT Health Science Center. I'm your basic t-shirt and jeans girl who loves chocolate, muscle cars, RPN calculators, Lego minifigs, and cards. My favorite quote is by Harlan Ellison: "The two most common elements in the Universe are Hydrogen...and Stupidity."
I've been collecting cards for several years now. And I have loved playing card games since I was a little girl when my grandmother taught me how to play poker, canasta, euchre, hearts, spades, 31, and crazy 8s.
Most of the decks in my collection are pinned to this board:

Happy to be aboard and looking forward to making friends here!
