Excellent list! And I learned several things about you. I keep thinking about doing one of these ...
Go for it! I didn't realize how tough it was going to be. I got to, like, 40 and started struggling.
That would be great!
I love reading these lists; so glad you made one for yourself.
Go Bengals!!
the buying and hiding books from your husband made me laugh out loud!
CCW: Love those Bengals! I have since I was a little girl.
Brat: He would kill me if he knew just how many books I buy. I usually keep them locked in the trunk until he goes to work. :)
Wow, what a list. You have accomplished quite a bit.
This was great.
WOW. That is impressive. 1st of all..YAY! for losing the weight. I love Lost, I buy a ton of books, and sometimes forget which ones I have,I love The Breakfast club, I saw The Full Monty production in Toronto..It was amazing. You would be on my blogroll, but I don't know how to do it, I read you everyday...
Marni, I loved your list!!! Sorry I don't comment more often. I think I'm going to sneak into Life Or Something Like It and put you in her blog list, tee hee!
Excellent list! I love reading these!
Btw- I *love* KwikTrips. They were all over in Wisconsin (where I used to live). Unfortunately, there aren't any in Chicago, so I'm seriously missing their flavored coffees (lived on those during college).
Old Lady: I didn't realize it, but I guess I have!
Plaid: Thank you!
Life: We've got an awful lot in common! Isn't it fun to learn that people thousands of miles away are just like you?
Heidi: Go for it! Teach her how to do that kind of stuff. I am going to teach my dad, too
Nikki: If I didn't get my QT coffee fix every morning I would be such a bitch to work with!
