Hey Misty & Tiffany, I actually switched with someone who really needed to be in week 1, so now I am in week 2. I'm sorry I won't get to meet ya'll. : < (

I have a fond place in my heart for Texans, so it will be cool to be at the workshop with so many of them. I actually went to school in Dallas @ SMU. Anyone from Dallas might recognize my Snuffer's mention in my favorite foods...I swear I put on the freshman 30 from those awesome cheese fries. I get them anytime I go back to the great state of Texas!

Misty, I'm from a native & Proud North Carolinian or NOTHE CACALACKIAN if you prefer. Maybe we could get together some other time. Where are you located now?
