This is a neat exercise Michelle. Just reading through this had me doing a life review and it was fun. I don't know if I have the courage to tackle this, though. If I do, you can be sure it will be HEAVILY censored!

Nude beaches and malted mild balls! We have so much in common!

Not this list thing, though. Mine stops at knowing all the words to the Mr. Ed theme song.
