    I'm first!

    I really do want to know why you have a broken gerbil cage under your desk. Very interesting!

    All awesome ideas. My vote is for 13 things that you do not apologize for. I'm too much of a sucka and need to read some strong behavior examples.

    Wow, you’re full of interesting ideas!

    I think Number 1 has the potential to run and run... And I’m also intrigued by number 8.

    Totally agree with 1... and I'd love to hear more! :) 4 sounds interesting - so does 5 and 6. I think I dated 7. Ya know what? They *all* sound good. Guess I'm not much help. :)

    Happy TT! Mine are up.

    Since I, too, suffer from PCOS, I would like you to do that one! I would say that I am a "Cyster" but if I were making a list of the good and bad things about PCOS, that would go on my bad list.

    My list is up!

    I like 13 phrases that I find irritating-my current top one is when people say "I'm sorry"-let's face it, when someone says "I'm sorry" they are NOT-they might feel a bit bad for you but they are never sorry.
