Ok, where to begin. It's not everyday that one is asked to brag about ones self.

First, I would like to thank those that nominated me for MOTW. You have no idea what you have done. MAAHAAAAAAAA!!!!!! (Just kidding).

I guess I will start at the beginning. I was born in Bristol, CT on July 8, 1970. (though everyone says I look younger than I am) I was adopted when I was 10 years old. I spent a year in Africa when I was 12 years old. I love to draw (though I haven't in years), read (no romance novels please) and watch thriller/horror movies. I also love to hike. I ran in my first and probably last half marathon a few years ago (came in last, froze my butt off, I swear it was the coldest day EVER!!!!!!) I work in Accounting (even though my degree is in Engineering, go figuire). I coupon and have a good stockpile (no I am not like THOSE people you see on tv. I don't have paper towels stashed under my childrens' beds or toilet paper stacked to the ceiling in my shower.) My stockpile is contained to one room in my house. I am known to be a tad OCD (That's a good thing to be-Right?) and I love love love to clean (just not windows or dishes) Too bad I live with a bunch of slobs! Oh well, at least I have a family (some people don't). Speaking of family, I have been with my husband 22 years (married for almost 20-April 24th). We have a 19 year old daughter and a 16 year old son. We moved form New York to South Carolina in 2003 for my husband's job. I miss the snow sometimes (but then again I DO NOT miss coming home after working all day and having to shovel my way into the driveway)
I love animals. I would have a farm if I could. (My husband not so much, he tolerates them). Currently I have a 12 year old pomeranian ( who is laying on the floor watching me as I type this, looking all pitifully). I also have 2 firebelly toads, 3 ADFs, a betta and a 29 gallon tropicial aquarium.
OK, now that I have bored you all to tears I gotta go and give my poor doggie some attention before he keels over from neglect.

Tucker, my Pom
