    1. I love the University of Cincinnati more than sane person should love their alma mater--I wear at least 2 things Bearcat every single day.

    2. I am a sports FREAK. I watch ESPN, MLB Network, & NFL Network more than most men.

    3. I can pick up any instrument and play it. I taught myself to play the piano & saxophone, and I'm currently teaching myself to play the guitar.

    4. I like beer, a lot. I started a tradition last fall of getting a new beer every Friday and trying it. I've learned a lot about beer doing this, but man, I have a lot more to learn still, and that excites me.

    5. I am married to my high school sweetheart, and today is the 16 year anniversary of our first date. I have now officially been with my husband for half of my life.

    2. A just had a baby girl who has been the biggest joy and also the biggest frustration in my life. She's my fir starter trying for two years.

    3. My grandmother, and father we're born in Saskatchewan but I was born in Ontario. Yet I wound up her anyway. Weird.

    4. I have a fear of two things, heights (once blacked out on the CN tower) and crickets. I don't know why I'm afraid of crickets but they literally send me into a petrified frenzy.

    5. I have a crush on Chef Robert Irvine. He's former military, built well, has a sexy accent and can cook. There is nothing hotter.

    3. I love vintage and old timey things. 40s and 50s seem really neat to me for some reason. Like the music and fashion, etc.

    4. I love to travel!

    5. My biggest pet peeve is people smacking their food or gum. Drives me freaking nuts!
