    When You're Getting Married (if you're engaged):  Either Sept-Oct 2011 or May 2012

    Fur Babies:  I have a 16-year-old daughter name Suzi.  She's a gray terrier/poodle mix and soooo cute!  I'm so hoping she lives long enough for my guy to become her daddy!

    Favorite Color:  green

    Favorite Thing About Your SO:  He thinks I'm the greatest thing ever and constantly tells me so.  I'm not used to getting so much fantastic attention!

    Least Favorite Thing About Your SO:  He currently lives over an hour away, but we're planning on moving on moving in together as soon as he pops the question.

    Hobbies/Activities:  cooking, shopping, watching movies, trying out new things

    Describe Your Personality:  Quiet and observant at first, but very outgoing once I get comfortable with people

    Snark Level (1 [low snark] - 10 [high snark]):  3 when I'm around people I don't know or in a professional setting.  10 when I'm around my friends.

    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself:  I met my boy on match.com.  After years and years of meeting weirdos and jerks online, I FINALLY met my Prince Charming!  Usually on a first date with a guy from Match we'd meet during the day for quick coffee or something.  With my guy, he asked me out to dinner and we ended up sitting there talking for two hours.  The restaurant got busy, so we went to a local park and talked for another two hours until it started getting dark.  That's when I knew I had found someone special!

    When You Got Married (if you're married):
    Fur Babies: 2 :) Lucy & Chevy -- never guess who named which. Lucy is a hound mix and Chevy....is our little black dog? Thought he was a lab; he's not. They are our rescues/loves.
    Favorite Color: Blue
    Favorite Thing About Your SO: His ability to read me. :) (And physically his height. He is 6'3 and I am 5'10! Whooo!)
    Least Favorite Thing About Your SO: His grandmother? She is a total matriarch...not how my Mom raised me. You respect, but you don't have to "obey." Matter of fact, I don't like the word obey.
    Hobbies/Activities: We like to travel, but most of the time we just go explore cool local spots. I like to read, he doesn't. haha. He is 100% into restoring old cars. I like the finished product. We like lame TV shows, esp late at night. (i.e. GSN, SVU)
    Describe Your Personality: Okay, I am a total type-A, over-organized, witty person. I'm a family person, and so is he. We love our fur babies and want to have real babies....in 5 years or so. He is much more laid back than I am. We balance each other out.
    Snark Level (1 [low snark] - 10 [high snark]): I might say a 5. It depends on my level of interest. For example, see the end of the next question. :)
    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I am the oldest of my 4 siblings, but the middle child when you add in my step-siblings (7). I have the biggest family ever and I love it. We range from age 31 to age 6. (Youngest was adopted) I am a family girl, and so is my FI. Oh and I can be opinionated when I hear "you're too young to be engaged." Age does not equal maturity level. Trust me.

    What You Do: Currently, sales for a children's educational program.  I'll likely go back for a masters in international Affairs and Global Enterprise, starting in the next year. I also write and am working towards publishing.

    What SO Does: Vice President of a national IT consulting firm.

    State of Relationship: Personally engaged (he's asked, I've said yes), but not officially engaged yet (no official proposal or ring yet).

    How Long You've Been Together: 1 week short of 1 year.

    When You're Getting Married::  Planning for summer 2012, but possibly sooner.

    Fur Babies: None right now-- he's allergic, but I'm sure we'll get a small dog sometime since my son and his daughter both desperately want one.  :)

    Favorite Color: Green

    Favorite Thing About Your SO: He makes me laugh, He is the most thoughtful man I have ever met.  He remembers every little detail, his eyes, when he smiles at you, are literally windows to his soul.  He appreciates me and the things I do in a way that I didn't know was possible.

    Least Favorite Thing About Your SO: He thinks it's funny to push me to the point of true annoyance (very difficult to do..  luckily he doesn't do it often)

    Hobbies/Activities: Biking, Hiking, Tennis, Travel, Computer games, watching favorite shows together, playing Wii with our kids, trying out good restaurants

    Describe Your Personality: I am fiercely independent and feminist, but also very feminine, and one of the most sensitive people you'll ever meet (once you get to know me-- I don't let a lot of people see that side of me).  I love to take care of those around me, but I hate being taken for granted.  I am told that I am patient (doubtful.. I don't feel it) and giving.  I am told that I'm stubborn and silly.  I would do anything for my child and those I love.  I love to learn, and am kind of a geek at heart, though I've been learning to be a bit more "girly" the last few years.  I am very focused on spirituality (not to be confused with religious, which I am not at all) and connectedness with others. 

    If I could do my dream job tomorrow, I would write and travel to research for my stories, and design vintage clothes.  I'm working on getting there.  :)

    Snark Level (1 [low snark] - 10 [high snark]): 3

    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself:  I am an amateur belly-dancer.  I've taken lessons and classes for about a year and a half, which I absolutely love, but then haven't been taking them for the last year and a half because time and funds were short, but I fully intend to start back up again.  It's great exercise and makes you look great and feel great about yourself.  Highly recommended to anyone interested.  :D

    Favorite Thing About Your SO: he is a genuinely good person down to the core and finds it very hard to be mean to people.

    Describe Your Personality: I'm usually quiet and reserved, though I can be quite bubbly when people get to know me. I'm a bit blunt and sometimes I offend people without meaning to (it's something I really need to work on). I thoroughly enjoy helping people and being around people. I'm sensitive and sometimes it's easy to make me feel left out or like I don't matter. However, it's impossible for me to hold a grudge (I don't see the point in staying angry with people) and I'm always willing to forgive or even apologize when necessary. 

    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I skipped one grade and was supposed to skip two more. I graduated high school at a young age with high honors and the highest academic achievement award. I've been taking care of myself since I was sixteen, prior to which I was in temporary foster care with a family from church. Because of my rather fast and abrupt upbringing I have learned to not judge people by their age, but by the quality of their character. It's something I feel very strongly about.

    State of Relationship: Living together since the summer. I know the ring has been purchased and am trying to enjoy this exciting time rather than just wishing he would hurry it up already. I'm sure I'll have the occasional vent but will mostly try to spare you guys, haha.

    Favorite Thing About Your SO: His sense of humor, he is always making me laugh.

    Least Favorite Thing About Your SO: Well, he is an amazing musician, but the downside is that I know when he picks up an instrument I have lost him for hours because he goes off in his own zone and doesn't hear a word anyone around him says! Fortunately, he realizes this and is understanding when I press my hand down on his guitar strings to force him to stop playing and listen to me for a second.

    Hobbies/Activities: Reading and writing. Ice skating. Rock climbing. Oil painting. Singing along obnoxiously loud to my favorite songs. Lurking on the boards for months before posting. Haha.

    Describe Your Personality: I can definitely be sarcastic, but it's all in good fun. Well, unless you're BSC, then you'll probably be offended. But generally I am a pretty easygoing and friendly person.

    Snark Level (1 [low snark] - 10 [high snark]): Hmm...7?

    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: If I could choose to go on vacation anywhere in the world, I would pick Disney World. Even though I've been there about a million times and used to work there. It's basically my favorite place in the world, and the rest of my family agrees. Luckily my boyfriend also really likes it there, and it is definitely where our honeymoon will take place.

    Okay, okay, I already know where I want my honeymoon. I decided when I was about 6 and by some miracle ended up with a BF who likes the idea. But I have made no actual concrete plans, I promise I'm not BSC! lol
