    What I have in common with Tuckeychicken: #1 (though probably for different reasons, and mainly one person specifically), #3, #5, #6, #8, #9, #10 (sometimes). I added this because my post was slow, my apologies.


    About me...
    1 - I am very new to MyFitnessPal.
    2 - I am a cat person.
    3 - I am a licensed cosmetologist in California.
    4 - I would really, really, really, really like to move to Hawai'i.
    5 - As an addendum to #1, I am also new to consistent exercising (and tracking it) and food intake logging. Don't judge me. :P I'm confused by several topics and some lingo in the fitness world... I'm such a n00b.
    6 - I'm a night owl... which would be good, but I really need a freakin' job.
    7 - I need to clean and sell/get rid of a lot of my things... a LOT. I'm sick of being lazy and having so much stuff. (Especially due to #4... gotta start saving.)
    8 - I ramble a lot and can sometimes be distracted or lose my original train of thought.
    9 - I am too nice for my own good.
    10 - I don't have health insurance but I really freakin' wish I did. (I don't qualify for Covered California because they say I should qualify for regular Medi-Cal via my county... I have the papers sent by the latter but based on past experience I really doubt they'll give it to me. And I can't afford good insurance. Again... I really wish I did. Long story re: why. *stops rambling*)

    There are other things I wanted to include in place of some of my #s, but I wasn't sure if I should. :/ My apologies for my rambling, heh.
