LOL. I want to train till I can actually go without sleep without damaging my health, like some folks who never sleep (recorded in Guinness Book of Records).

Default Permission to talk about myself!

Here's my quickly compiled 10...

1. After 26 years, I'm still happily married to my college physics teacher.

2. I love painting, sewing, windsurfing, and sitting on the sofa with my daughter watching Disney movies.

3. My favourite food is fish and chips, mushy peas and a fish patty from Leng's Fish and Chip shop on Portobello St. in Hull, Yorkshire.

4. My biggest regrets in life are not becoming a physician and not talking with my dad more before he died.

5.I've owned a guitar for 23 years and can barely play it.

6. I'm pretty geeky for an old broad...I have a desktop and a Thinkpad, a PDA, graphics tablet, digital camera and camcorder, all with wireless connectivity, except the digital camera.

7. I have to control myself from being too opinionated and argumentative with people, especially about religion!

8. I hate ironing.

9. I make really good cheesecake.

10. I'm very good at killing house plants.

Great list gilly!
I hate ironing so much that I tend to just throw stuff in the dryer to get wrinkles out. You are not alone my friend...

now I am craving cheesecake...

I too am good at killing plants. Everything I try to grow dies. Except for my daughter...
I would like to have a garden though but I am so far from a greenthumb...
