Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I'm 38 and actually never been engaged or married before. Yes, really. I grew up in Northern Virginia, but hightailed it for Florida the minute I was out of college and I've been here since. I prefer a hurricane to a tornado or snow storm any day of the week.
