	<li>I may have children but I can have a conversation about topics besides children.</li>
	<li>I cry every time I hear “Con te partiroâ€ because it was playing when I was made to say goodbye to my old life.</li>
	<li>Having blood drawn for tests scares me more than going through labor. I'm scared of needles.</li>
	<li>I believe if you carry the baby, you get to name the baby. I don’t care what you think about that.</li>

	<li>The Cure’s <em>lovesong</em> lyrics are so hauntingly beautiful. I want a song to be written for me.</li>
	<li>People who spend time on Google looking up someone else’s background instead of just asking the person and getting to know them are creepy.  No if, ands or buts about it.</li>

	<li>I was on Sesame Street with my sister.  But it wasn’t with any of the characters.</li>
	<li>Luke and Natalie’s father is passive aggressive. It explains a lot.  I diagnosed him myself.</li>

	<li>I've gone to bed with my makeup on and contacts in.</li>
	<li>I didn’t see “The Breakfast Clubâ€ or any of the brat pack movies until I was in my 20s.  And then I realized I lived very close to two of the actors in that movie.</li>
	<li>My hair is really mine – and the color.  So are my finger nails (the color is essie <em>Vanity Fairest</em>).  And my chest (bra size 34c).</li>
	<li>Danny Glover once read me a bedtime story.</li>

	<li>Manhattan Clam Chowder should never be offered on menus. New England is so much better.</li>

	<li>Once every three years or so, I used to get a craving for White Castle double cheeseburgers. I would order three, eat one and a half, and then regret having that craving for another three years. Or more.</li>
	<li>If the celebrity is rumored to be gay and happens to be married; chances are I typed their “contractâ€ during my former career.</li>
	<li>When I visit other U.S. cities, I visit as a local. Never as a camera toting tourist.</li>
	<li>Someone actually thought I made up the fact I am a mom. Because I didn’t walk around with an album full of photos of them.  And because my phone calls were never interrupted by them.</li>
	<li>Cops and firemen hit on me all the time. It’s kind of weird.  Especially when I was pregnant.</li>
	<li>I have dark brown eyes. I wear contacts during the day. And glasses when I’m at home.</li>
	<li>Red gerbera daisies are my favorite flower.</li>

	<li>Is it possible to have failed gym class? I may have come close. I know I had to take makeup classes right before graduation.</li>
	<li>I made a New Year’s Resolution to run the ING New York City Marathon. I’m really nervous.</li>
	<li>In a moment of sheer insanity, I took a ride from a strange guy literally trying to pick me up. His line was “Don’t worry, I’m not a murderer.â€  Thank goodness I’m no longer a teenager.</li>
	<li>Went on a date with a guy from an online dating site.</li>
	<li>My mother and a friend of mine bonded over shopping at a store which makes me break out at the thought of shopping with crowds of women looking for “good buysâ€.</li>
	<li>I think one of my high school teachers liked me. Yes, like that. A few years after I graduated, there was a rumor he slept with a student. Who knows if its true.  I know it definitely wasn’t me.</li>
	<li>My personal checkbook has various works of art. My business checkbook is standard yellow checks.  I haven’t used either since I tend to pay by phone, internet or automatic debit.</li>
	<li>I hate smoothies with bananas. I can only eat a banana when I’m pregnant.</li>
	<li>I only eat Cream of Wheat if my grandmother makes it for me. With golden raisins and sugar.</li>
	<li>Not sure if I know how to make coffee but a coffee pot, some filters and maybe even a bag of coffee is in my kitchen in case I want to try again.</li>
	<li>My freshman year of high school I was given an award that sets off nerd sirens. alarms. alerts.</li>
	<li>My freshman year of college, I worked fulltime while attending classes fulltime.  It sucked.</li>

	<li>I have never done any drugs, including marijuana.</li>
	<li>I get annoyed by people who don’t know the difference between “stationaryâ€ and “stationeryâ€.  Especially the ones who own invitation and note card companies.</li>
	<li>I was voted most likely to become a catalog model. (They didn’t mean <em>Frederick’s of Hollywood</em>.)</li>
	<li>I went to an all girls Catholic high school.  Twice.  (I still have a plaid uniform skirt.)</li>
	<li>My alumnus recommendation for Columbia was the highest he had ever given. In fact, he talked about me at all of the interviews he had with students from my high school that year.  Ooops.</li>
	<li>Every time I see Jon Cryer I think of the lip synching scene he did in <em>Pretty in Pink </em>to Otis Redding. Every single time without fail. Poor guy is typecast in my book.</li>
	<li>I’ve cried myself to sleep a few times.</li>
	<li>I once woke up and found a gun under my pillow. Yup, scared me too.</li>
	<li>I am able to recite from memory 99% of <em>Boiler Room, Pride and Prejudice</em> and <em>Heartbreakers</em>.  Three very similar movies, huh.</li>
	<li>I can wink with my left eye but not my right. That’s the eye that almost went blind.</li>
	<li>Early 80s Freestyle music is a secret favorite of mine.  “<em>Let the music play, he won’t get away.â€ </em>So is the soundtrack to GoodFellas <em>“Remember… walking in the sand.â€</em></li>
	<li>Took Junior year classes while a Frosh. Didn’t graduate early though.</li>
	<li>Failed my road test the first time around. Passed it the second time before I put the key in the ignition.  <em>Toot toot! Beep beep!</em></li>
	<li>Wish <em>Ally McBeal</em> and <em>Gilmore Girls</em> never went off the air. Hey, look at <em>Law and Order</em>!</li>
	<li>I’ve started buying organic and cage free foods for my kids. And stopped buying foie gras.</li>
	<li>My high school year book photo isn’t the one I chose. They published the wrong proof.</li>
	<li>Didn’t go to my prom or anyone elses.  Or any of my high school dances. Or on a spring break.</li>
