This has me tempted to sit down and try one of those “100 Things” lists. But I risk boring you all!
It would not be boring at all! I would love to know 100 more things about Minty! :)
Those are some faboo vacation spots, BTW.
Oh yeah, you lived in Columbia! i forgot that… my knit group met at Clyde’s one night last fall :)
Wow, great vacations. I am jealous!
Do you ever read the America’s Next Top Model recaps over at Television Without Pity? My friend Tracie writes them — they’re hilarious. I don’t watch the show, but I still enjoy reading about it!
I would read 100 things about you. I’d probably ration out 10 per day. You know, really savor the experience. :)
running magazine? Which one?
I’m too lazy to make a 100-things list. :-)
