| I really value my alone time, but I also enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I'm very close with my family and enjoy spending time with them whenever I can fit it into my schedule. I come from a small Midwestern family. My parents live 20 minutes North of me. My dad recently (2006) celebrated his 65th birthday and retired from his job of 47 years. He is really enjoying his retirement and I am so happy for him! My mom celebrated her 60th birthday this year (2006). She has been a school bus driver for almost 30 years. On weekends, my parents also own & operate a small rural tavern. This bar has been in my family for over 50 years, as my maternal grandparents owned & operated it prior to my parents. I have only one sibling. My brother, Michael, is four years younger than me and is one of my best friends. He recently celebrated his 33rd birthday (2006). He also lives 20 minutes North of me with his dog, a beagle named "Buddy". |
