I rember the sniper case- I felt so bad for all the people who were living through that ordeal of not knowing if they were safe outside anymore..Very Sad!
Take care!

My birthday is actually the 19th, I wrote this last night and forgot to change the post date. Anyways, it's fixed now and thanks for all the birthday wishes!
Happy Birthday Amy!!
Ty Pennington? You're so lucky. I 'heart' him.
DC Sniper? Scary. I lived in fear in Colorado just thinking about my family and friends in Virginia.
And when I said '10 minutes' - I meant it...and your hair is so short!
Hope you have an awesome birthday, your brother Mike too!!
Happy Birthday Amy!
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Hope the upcoming year is wonderful for you!
Happy Birthday!! You look so young for 21 ;)
Wow, was it really only 1985 Blockbuster opened? Jeesh, it feels like forever, but then of course I remember that VCR's weren't really popular until around that time. Damn, I'm old, lol. I remember my dad buying a VCR for my mom in around 84 or 85 and paid almost $500.00 for it!
I have a twin too! I always forget it is her birthday too though, lol.
