1. When did you first realize you were in love with

5. Let's see
I've been "in love" a very small number of times, so unless you're someone from my past, I'm confused. But who knows what the future holds. I sure don't.

6. Women's health issues
that's #1.
Probably followed by labor or environmental issues.
Maybe election/voting stuff. It's hard to pin it down, but women's health stuff is definately #1.

3. If a woodchuck could chuck wood...
would he?

And if so, how long can we expect the average wood chuck to chuck 100 pounds of wood. Mostly pine.

Edited on Wed Nov-12-03 02:28 PM by populistmom
my two year old just woke up and is climbing all over me. I can later though, but then it will be too late.

#1 is probably FDR if we're getting historical.

10. Were you the person...
who was trying to decide whether or not to blow their husband off and go to the Boston DU gathering? If so, did you go? If yes, wanta give us your version of the days activities (not that I don't trust Matcom's and Will's version of events mind you ;-)).

25. That was me.
Actually, it didn't seem quite as wild as Matcom and Will put it, but then again, I was only had a couple beers, so I was pretty sober. Lots of baseball talk and people kept getting asked how many kids I have (most people don't believe I really have 4 because I don't look exactly matronly). Will said I was populistmom because I keep populating. Matcom is a slight flirt, but not as much as he is here. The fake cop ex-con guy thought I was 25. I had fun though and would do it again.

That explains it - I forgot to apply my deodorant. I shouldn't be allowed to walk among women with the natural potency of my pheromones being what it is.

Congratulations! Now your post counter thingy will never move again! :D

50. Woo hoo, thanks populistmom!
I'd really like you to do the honors.

So tell me, as one who's been there:

Is it a relief to get to the magic number, or a
wee bit of a letdown (like postpartum depression)?
