My friend Sarah posted an "8 Mysteries of Me" post so I decided to copy her but change it a bit to make it my own. I really just needed an idea for a post. I haven't posted lately because my life has been pretty routine - go to work, work on medical transcription course, watch some tv, go to bed. Not much to blog about and definitely no cute pictures involved. So here's some information about me.
