RE: 10 Things about you that we Catheites may or may no...

Great idea, Jillybean; this is fun!

1. I'm 39 years old with 40 approaching fast and furious.
2. I met my DH when I was 16 when we worked together at a supermarket, started dating him at 17, and we'll celebrate our 15th anniversary in May.
3. We have no children; I would love to have had them, but things didn't work out, and I feel ok about that.
4. I get way more excited about seeing cute puppies and kittens than seeing cute babies.
5. I love Bruce Springsteen--Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuce!
6. Beer is my favorite beverage.
7. I'm ashamed to admit how much I can't wait to retire from working full-time and start living the leisurely life!
8. Going to the movies is one of my favorite things to do.
9. Aruba is one of my favorite places to visit.
10. I love sports, but baseball is my favorite. I'm really hoping (as countless others have done before me to no avail) that the Red Sox win a World Series before I die.

Very happy to *meet* everyone!
