1. I cry at every stupid sentimental thing, including shows like Everybody Loves Raymond.
2. I secretly sing Broadway shows into my Karaoke machine while no one is home.
3. Before I go to sleep EVERY night, I make up little fairy tales in my head like if I were to meet Matthew McConahay.
4. I like to write novels. The one I'm working on now is about a serial killer and I get so into it that sometimes when my boyfriend comes home I get all snappy and rude. When he asks why, I don't have the heart to tell him that I've jsut spent hours writing about a killer, so I pretend I have "my friend"
5. I spent too much time on these boards....

1) I have trouble sleeping at night and almost never get more than 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep at a time.

2) My old roommate got arrested a couple of years ago because she and I were scamming the LIRR. Each month we would buy one train ticket and make a color photo copy of each side and glue it together. It worked for about 8 months before she was caught with the fake ticket and took the fall. She was fined $200 (which we split), and it was dropped from her record. In the end it was worth it because we saved about $1400 total.

3) My goal in life when I was little was to be a waitress at a diner (which I called a "diner girl").

4) FH and I got our mortgage commitment for our house yesterday! Whoooohooooo!!!!


5) I used to write short stories when I was younger, and they sometimes contained erotic romance scenes (I never showed anyone).

6) I also wanted to be an Olympic gymnast when I was younger, right after seeing the movie Nadia. I recently took adult gymnastic classes to try and re-live the fantasy.

Ok I'll play

Well, I've been around for a while---but never took the time to respond to this post......so, here it goes:

1) I am an expert shot with a 9mm semi-automatic pistol

2) I was supposed to be on Teen Jeopardy as a kid, but came down with Mono

3) I LOVE the outdoors....hiking, rock climbing, camping, skiing, bike riding.....you name it--if it's outside--you'll find me there

4) My first "pet" that I got on my own, in my first apartment was an iguana named "Pepe." She lived to the ripe old age of 7 and died in December '03. She was the greatest ever!!! Lots of personality and love to give

4 1/2) I have been involved in my own animal rescue for a long time. I once had an article published in the NY POST (April, 2003). I use my own money to get vet care, surgery, spay/neuter, etc....then they stay in our home until the animals find new forever homes.



5) I have moved ALL over the place since I was 15. I left home at 16 to live with an ex (which leads me to #6) in Charleston, SC and go to college. The last five years is the longest I've stayed in one place

6) At the age of 18--I was engaged (NOT to FH), running a household, going to college full-time, and working full-time

7) I love talking with the criminals I lock up....as I pursue my MA in Forensic Psychology, I've found that there is a lot to be learned from them. And talking to them like they're human works much better than a heavy hand

8) FH and I dived the Great Barrier Reef

9) I HATE people who drive 60mph in the left hand lane of the highway and DON'T GET OUT OF THE WAY when they see me pull up behind them

10) I generally don't get along with women. All of my friends (with the exception of 1) are men. I seriously enjoy football and beer on Sundays (don't walk in front of the TV ), hate shopping (I run in, get what I need and run out), and laugh at dirty jokes. I even took my friends out to the strip club on MY birthday b/c I figured they would have a great time there.

#10 is the strangest b/c I have found all of you and there is nowhere else in the world (especially from my male friends) that I could have gotten such great info, advice, and feedback....

11) Some of you know this--others don't--I'm also a paramedic (work per diem) and teach the EMT/Paramedic programs at a local college.
