Re: 10 Random things about you

1. Everyone on these boards know that I'm a HUGE Yankee fan. Well further to that, I am a huge baseball fan. It is a dream of mine to go see a game played at every major league ballpark in the country. I've only been to about 4 at this point (not counting the NY Stadiums)

2. I am scared to death of heights, but that doesn't stop me from loving to ride on the biggest and craziest roller coasters.. I love amusement parks!

3. I come across as a tough cookie outwardly, but I'm a total mush inside. I cry at the sappiest stuff!

4. I hate seafood. Even the smell disgusts me. ALL KINDS , even tuna (and no, I'm not allergic)

5. I was painfully shy as a child. It took until I was in 8th grade to begin to come out of my shell a bit (though I still am on the shy side)

6. I don't always love being '30something,' but quite honestly the 30s have been the best years of my life!

7. My dream profession as a kid was to be the first female play-by-play announcer for the Yankees. Mostly because I wanted to travel with the team I still think sometimes I could do a better job than Sterling or Michael Kay

8. I was a total tomboy growing up.

9. I was never a cat person really, but my kitty Mia changed that. I adore her, she is my baby!

10. I hate shopping (Yes -- I am a Woman and I hate to shop!!) LOL

Re: 10 Random things about you

1. When people look at me they think ditz... but I really am a nerd! I conducted my own science projects for fun while growing up and still do. I own a microscope and telescope to play with in my spare time. I have studied ants, frogs, caterpillars, and spiders. I even made a spider video As a child I was really ahead of other kids my age. I learned how to read at 2 years old. No I am not kidding! I was a nerdy kid. I was suppossed to skip 1st grade but I cried because I didn't want to leave my friends behind.


2. I hate all carbonated drinks, including soda, beer, champagne... The bubbles burn my throat, especially when I drink from a can.

3. I am married to my high school sweetheart. We met at 16 & 17 and have been together for 7 1/2 years.

4. My dog Gizmo is my pride and joy. He is 12 years old and I got him when I was 11 years old. He is the cutest thing in the world and I love him more and more every day! Ray is a little jealous of him though.

5. I take the most pictures of anyone I know. I carry a camera around with me in my pocketbook everywhere I go. Over 1/2 of all my pictures are of Gizmo though.

6. I play the piano. I took lessons in elementary school. My teacher always made me learn classical music so after I quit lessons I went out and bought my first real song sheet music - November Rain. Now I am concentrating on learning Elton John. He is one of my favorite singers/piano players and his songs are really hard!

7. I slept with a stuffed animal for the past 19 years. It is the blue baby carebear. My dad bought him for me and got my sister one when my little brother was born. I just stopped this summer. I don't know why I just grew out of it.

8. I was the class flirt in high school and my mom was too, the same high school but 20 years before. My mom also was highschool sweethearts with my father (just like Ray and I) but the scary thing is we both started dating April 5th My parents are now divorced and my brother, sister, and I have all given up contact with our father.

9. I work 2 jobs. My fulltime job is a cosmetic chemist. I work part time as a waitress. Ray also worked 2 jobs until recently. Because of this we are able to pay for a wedding and house at the ages of 23 & 24. We also both graduated college a semester early. I am very proud of us.

10. Some other odd facts:
I have a green belt in karate.
I am lactose intolerant and have IBS.
I was a cross country runner and lacrosse player in highschool.
I went surfing in Hawaii.
I have curly hair but I always straighten it.
I have 2 tattoos.

10. I'm eight weeks pregnant.

More miscellanious stuff

- GREASE is my favorite movie - DH hates to watch it with me bc I sing and dance.
