Okay, you're so right...we could have just about the same list. Other than your job & a few other things, if we lived closer - you'd be on for a girl's night out - a Miller Lite & hot wings! :biggrin:

SoccerMom

Sounds like a blast!! My husband likes to say I'm the perfect woman, 'cause I love beer, sports, and sex....and not necessarily in that order.... ;)

Sunny

Sadly, my husband wouldn't say the same thing...he'd say that I prefer wine, shopping, and a good conversation! :biggrin:

But, I can certainly handle those other 3 things.
