I'm a blogger ...

As a long time blog reader, I think it's blog-etiquette to "introduce yourself", so on the eve of my 32nd Birthday, here are 32 facts about me ...

  5. I have a new cupcake addiction.
  6. In 1996 and 2006 I lost best friends due to car accidents.
  7. I became an Aunt on 05.28.07 - one of the greatest blessings in life to date!

  10. I love small towns, ranches, cowboys boots, eating wild game, hunting, and all things country!
  11. Michael Phelps just won his career 11th Olympic Medal (9th Gold)!!
    (I know that's not about me, but this is history in the making and I'm watching it ... cut me some slack y'all!)
  12. I probably over use exclamation points!
  13. I love jeans and t-shirts.
  14. 14 is the number of years my best friend and I have been bff's.
  15. I hate to dust and pull weeds -- my chores growing up.
  16. My first car was a 1979 GMC Heavy Half truck; equipped with hand-me-down glass packs from my brother.

  21. My family nickname is "the girl".
  22. I am technology challenged, but sell software for a living.
  23. I don't get too into politics, though after participating in a NPR Presidential interview I think I'm more passionate about it than I thought.
  24. I was never allowed to say "bored" growing up, b/c there was always something I could be given to do.
  25. I love spending time with my friends!
  26. I'm training for the 3-Day, a 60 mile walk in San Diego to raise money for Breast Cancer Research!
  27. My first job was babysitter, I am a certified Safe Sitter.

  32. I know the truth. You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

When I started this I couldn't think of 32 things about myself, but now there are so many other things, but those are for another time, another post.
