This is a place for you to post about yourself if you are comfortable with it so we can all get to know you! It is pretty simple, just share what you are comfortable with. AF lll


Lets see ummm.... I am a Christian I go by the Screen Name "adidas freak" because I truly am. I don't own any other brand of sportswear.. I guess you could say that I have an unhealthy obsession with the brand. ~smirks~ I am 33, 5'8", 187.4lbs currently, black hair, green eyes, medium frame. Married with 4 lil ones. I have lived in Seattle, NYC, Miami, Portland and Corpus Christi where I currently live. I'm a huge NY Yankees fan... I am a Youth Pastor, member of the Coast Guard and a Boxing Promoter I have traveled all over the world (but never to Europe or Africa) Those are the only two continents I have not been to. I was very athletic in my younger days.. I still am quite athletic.. I've just let myself go too much.... I enjoy racquetball, intelligent conversation and quick wit. What about you? Tell us about yourself... AF lll


~shrugs~ I guess anonymity is a big thing around here. Sorry.. didn't mean to put up a topic no one would reply to. ~thought that people would have been more interested in a topic like this~


i am 37. i "work on the web" so i'm online a lot. i have no kids. i've been married since june of 2003. that's my second marriage. i hold very few religious beliefs. i'm republican in my political views. i read a lot and on a variety of subjects. weight loss is one of particular interest to me, as its something i've needed to accomplish for a good 15 years now. i don't smoke or drink anymore. so i pretty much am on the straight and narrow.


i'm married with no children. i have 2 cats if that counts. i'm 33, stand 5'3" and weigh between 130-135, depending on how i'm standing. i like to listen to music, but not country. i also enjoy reading and writing. i'm not very well travelled, although i have been to a couple of places. so there is a little about me..


I'm glad people are starting to post here. It is nice to get to know more about people. I have two cats too PixieChic! One is a purebred Belanise and the other a purebred Manx. (not that I'm too cool to have non purebreds.. but I love these breeds and their temperments and if they aren't well bred.. they have tons of medical problems) Nice to meet you all.... AF lll


i had a manx that lived to be 13. she was my first cat, baby :) she was black and tail-less. excellent cat and ratter.


(You already heard tons about me, but you just encouraged le to post more - whee :P ) I'm 22, fresh out of college and currently living in Japan as an English teacher. My home is in Europe - my parents are British, but live in France. I'm single, have no children, no pets - not even a goldfish. I would dearly love to have a cat or a dog, but I'm not allowed to have one in this flat and I don't have the option of moving :( I live allllll alone, me and my computer :) I have no religious beliefs. My interests are wide - too wide for me to pursue them all, so, as the Japanese would say - 'hiroku asaku', wide and shallow :) But in general, I like History, music (learning the drums now), drawing and role-playing (the inoffensive pen and paper kind before you all freak out ;) ) Sport-wise I'm a horse-riding freak (something else I can't indulge in here) and I've come to love ping-pong (something I used to consider the most stupid sport to have ever been invented :) ) Well, that's pretty much it, I guess :) Pika P.s: Oh and I used to like Pokémon back in the days when there were only 150, the GameBoy game was an interesting novelty and the TV series was funny. Now...


Well here is a little about me I am a Mom to 5, Step Mom to 4 , and Gramma to 17, and Great Gramma to 6.This is my second marriage, and have been married for 15 years. I have motored accross Canada 6 times, both my Hubby and I. I am a Canadian. My hobbies include knitting, sewing, and of course the computer. We have no pets, but spend a lot of time running errands for my 94 year old Mom. I think this thread is a great idea, we get to know a little about each other. :wink: O2Bthin


Hi, I'm too am married with no children. (2 dogs) I am 48 and retired in 01, not by choice, but through lay offs. Thats when we moved to Lake Fork (Tx) and my eating habits went out the window.......I am currently 120, but have ALWAYS weighed 110, from age 16...........so this 10 lbs has really irritated me. I have never been a big excerciser, do lots of yard work, but it's not the same. So here I am trying to find the motivation to exercise and get this stinking 10 lbs off. I enjoy painting, fishing, gardening and music, my favorite is classic rock....what else!!!!!!! Growing up in the 70's...........loved it.


I am a christian I just resently became resaved after my kidney tranplant which was on jan 22, 04. I had quite a bit of problems after my surgery but everything is going better than wonderful. my doctor said this is the best transplant he has seen despite the begining. I"m 19 in a long distance relationship my bf is in the army stationed in fort stewart, Ga. I live with my parents and my sister and her 3 kids which I help her raise so its very busy around here.


Glad to hear that your transplant went well. It sound as if you have a lot of people around you that care, so that is a bonus! Great to meet you!

WOW! I've really enjoyed reading about everyone! Such interesting people we have!! My turn to share!! I am 20 years old and busting my butt in school. I currently attend Roanoke College in Salem Virginia. I live in Roanoke Va (they are practically the same place!) I am engaged to my wonderful boyfriend of 2 years. We have been engaged for a year. We have a child, our beautiful 3 month old Weimaraner puppy Logan that we got for Christmas. I have 14 classes left to take at Roanoke and I will graduate with a Bachelors in Business Marketing. I'm also pursuing an Associates in Motorsports Management from Patrick Henry Comm. College in Martinsville Va (I had taken a bunch of classes at comm. college before I started at roanoke this fall). My goal is to graduate from both schools in 2006 and pursue a career in NASCAR, the business side not the driving side! My fiance and I are shooting to get married in Oct. 06. So there ya have it! Good luck to everyone! :lol:
