"In your satin tights, fighting for your rights, and the old red, white & blue" - Wonder Woman Theme Song

I wake up each morning with more spider bites than I went to bed with. I'm starting to think if I get bit anymore, I'm going to become a spider. Maybe I'll turn into SpiderWoman! Now that would be cool. Could I have superpowers, too?

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

Men, don't be obvious and choose x-ray vision, either. Give me something better than that.

Mine would be super strength. I have this thing about being able to kick anybody's ass. Currently, I'm about as strong as an 80-lb anorexic. Only I'm not 80 lbs. And I love to eat.

Or maybe I'd choose Wolverine's power of super-strength-metal and healing powers. But that's two powers, isn't it?

I play Family Feud on Facebook and I'll admit-- I suck at it. One of the questions when I last played was, "Name something associated with Wonder Woman". I couldn't think of a single freaking thing. Not one. I only vaguely remember watching Wonder Woman. I think I was too young. And I don't think it was a show my parents would have frequently watched. Remember her Lasso of Truth? I don't. Remember her bracelets of Amalthea? I don't. I remember her leotard. I remember her tiara or headband or whatever that thing was on her forehead. I remember Lynda Carter. That's it. I don't even remember Wonder Woman kicking anybody's ass, though I'm sure she did, because that's what she was about, right?

Needless to say, I won't be becoming Wonder Woman. I'll be SpiderWoman. Look out. I'll spin my web, crawl up buildings, swing from lightpoles and just basically hang around. I might stop some crime, too, I guess.
