seester, I love this blog! I was reminded of some things about you--I had forgotten your love of Jon Bon Jovi. I also learned some new things, such as your love for soggy cereal

Funny. That's a great list. But WHAT IN HEAVENS NAME IS A GEOGRAPHIC TONGUE??! And I'm jealous that most of yours were one-line-only! Glad I just got to know you a little bit better! But soggy cereal? Yuck!

Did you go to Second Wind (JH Ranch) in California? I went there as a camper after my junior year of high school and my brother went to Trac 1 and 2. I just wanted to see if it was the same camp. If so, I loved it there!!!

That's awesome that you love Bon Jovi! That was the first concert I ever went to...my DAD took me and a friend in the 5th grade and there was a couple beside us on the grass at Starwood who made out the whole time.

I do like raisin bran soggy and grape nuts. I fix the bowl with milk and put it back in fridge for ten minutes. MMMMMMMMMMMM. So glad you love your life. That is huge statement. Looking forward to tomorrow.
