25 things about ME

I filled this out on facebook and myspace...and decided to put it here too. Hope you all enjoy learning new things about me!

So I guess the idea is to read this, get a kick out of it, then spend twenty minutes picking your brains for 25 things people would want to know about you then pass it on to at least twenty five people(including me.)
Enjoy!
