His mother was a jack- !

So, apparently I'm the only one who procrastinates anymore.
This one's for you future children's librarians. Maybe those of you who loved Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy already know that there's a Golden Compass movie coming out this winter. And I know that the movie is always always worse than the book when it comes to beloved children's classics. Still, the website is worth checking out because (and I know you won't judge me for this), you can take a quiz and meet your daemon!
Mine is jackal, which apparently means that I am solitary, spontaneous, clever and shy. Also a scavenger who, according to Wikipedia, marks its territory with urine and feces. Go figure. Alright, enjoy procrastinators.
p.s. If the title of this post makes no sense to you, you should know that in the movie The Omen, a jackal gives birth to the Anti-Christ.

You were just looking for a reason to make "feces" get bigger in the Tag Cloud.
My daemon is a mouse named Aesop.
And any reason to make "feces" bigger in the Tag Cloud is fantastic. =)
I LOVE the His Dark Materials trilogy, so it was with great trepidation that I took a look at the movie site (just as Katie said, most movies from beloved classics are almost always doomed).
But I am a sucker for all online quizzes, so I took it and found out my daemon is Romulus, a lion. Hmm. I never thought I would identify with a cat before.
I'm super curious where the movie will leave off...at least it looks like it will be pretty to watch.
Mine is also named Romulus, but is an osprey.
What's up with all the librarian Romuluses? Mine is a chimpanzee named Romulus!
Not librarian Romuluses, Leia Romuluses. I'll bet it's some L-starting and 2-syllable deal.
I <3 that yours is a chimp, Leah!
Monkey/chimp sex all the way, baby! Can't escape that, Leah! Ha. :-)
Yeah, how funny is it that all the Leiahs have a daemon named Romulus? I love being a Leiah.
