21. I don't take shit from nobody

23. I've been through a tornado. It happened shortly after I got married. It was the middle of the night and we had to huddle in the bath tub, of the house we were renting, with our new puppy, and a blanket over us. We heard it as it went thru the backyard.

37. OK, so that last one doesn't count. But what you might not know is why I'm such a huge fan...As a child, I spent my fall weekends in Knoxville. My Aunts use to take me (and my sisters, we alternated weekends) to UT Football games! That's why I'm such a HUGE fan. I grew up with it!! It's in my blood. They also would take us to watch the Lady Vols Basketball games when they played Vanderbilt in Nashville. Those were good times!!
I hope that you, now, have a little more insight as to who I am and what I like.
