A couple of months ago, I took a quiz to "meet my daemon" (lovely promo site for the Golden Compass movie)...
I can recall being mildly disappointed at the appointment of a raccoon (though the mischievous, curious, night-wanderer bits seemed accurate)... was hoping for something a little more glamorous - cougar, jaguar, tiger perhaps?
But in this mid-move moment of packing bliss, up to my eyeballs in random oddities horded in a mere year-and-a-half here in London, it's all starting to make sense...
