This is fun - I love to read stuff like this. I'd forgotten about the pilot thing - that reminded me about a funny story with you and Pam on a FIRST date I think. I'm curious, why the flower question wasn't "a girly question." I also didn't know about the crying thing and didn't realize how many places you've lived in. So, now I will follow the rules and post it on mine too.

Hi, It's your favorite cousin, Amy. I found your blog through Tammy's. Very interesting stuff about you.

I didn't realize you liked to rollerskate as a kid - did you forget to change my answer? I can remember you playing with that chemistry set - or else I wanted to - can't remember.
