Heeeey now. I agree Amy's not a loser, but what's wrong with having a boyfriend??!
I forgot to put in my thing that I drive a 99 Toyota Camry. I can drive a stick but haven't done so in a few years. I hate driving stick anyway.
Yeah I also forgot to put in that I drive an automatic 2000 Ponitac Sunfire. Great in the summer, it sucks in the winter!
I too did not have a boyfriend until I was 19, that's when I met brian and now we're gettin married!!!
My name is Lut
I AM 46 (°July 21 1956)
married to Bernard Gabriels , since 1979 (aug.18)
we have 2 adopted children of 17 and 13 .
Pets : 2 cats Maya & Inka , 1 RB-cat Sydney , 1 bunnie Billie , 1 guinea pig Jasper , and lots of fish in our outdoor pond .
about driving : I am driving an automatic Ford Focus . I love it !!
My hubby has a Lexus ; he needs to drive a lot for his job , so he neds a solid car !
Well I guess I forgot a few things myself. 1st, I am 40 (8/7/62) and Charlie is 58 (5/24/00).
2nd, I drive a 92 Subaru Legacy wagon and Charlie has a 91 Toyota Camry wagon. I to, am scared of the way a standard shift car rolls back......actually petrified is more the word.
3rd, AMY YOU ARE NOT A LOSER !! I too was without a boyfriend during most of my younger years, but I was one of the first to marry (from my classmates) and the ONLY one to actually STAY married. Probably because people like us are used to just "flitting" around between boys, to see if we can "get a better deal".
4th........I completely understand anyone who does not feel comfortable giving a real first name, but I will admit, ACGAS, you and Popcornbird were 2 of the ones I was most interested in. (I have the feeling that Popcornbird's first name is something beautiful and exotic) And soledad, we know your husband's name, Sam, so I think you should 'fess up.:D
I also forgot to mention my car(s):D My husband and I have a 1995 and a 1998 Ford Escort.

LOL I knew someone was going to ask about earthquakes! That is the first thing outta everyones mouth when they find out where I live. No, we haven't had any quakes recently. (or at least none that could be felt) I never knew there were church steeples in the river (shows how much I know about local history)
LOL Although as dirty as the Mississippi is by the time it gets to us there's probably alot of stuff in there I never knew about.
Brian and I have been living together for 6 years and have been engaged for 5 years. We bought our home 3 years ago. I just see it as doing things in reverse. Usually people get married first and then have to look for a home. We looked for a home first and now we are getting married. It's actually a lot easier this way. I had a friend who recently got married and ended up living at the in-laws house with her new husband because they couldn't find a house!! Yuk!!
I'm Katharine and I go by Kate. I'm 19 and a freshmen at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I'm single single single and I don't mind. :D
I started driving when I was 15 and 3 months but the age requirement has since changed in the state of Hawai'i. I haven't driven for a long while though being as I'm in college....with no car....
I can't drive a stick shift. I was supposed to learn how to over Christmas break, just for fun, but I never got around to it.
I think I want to be an alternative veterinarian specializing in Eastern medicine (acupuncture, herbs...maybe some homeopathy). Growing up in Hawai'i exposed me to a lot of Asian culture and tradition. I have studied Chinese language since the 7th grade and plan to enroll is Chinese 301 next fall here at UW-Madison. But the prospect of getting into vet. school really scares me. Half the time I don't feel like I'll ever get there....but I know I'd be a good vet! and that is what inspires me. I've looked into other animal related careers ....including Wildlife Management ...but they don't appeal to me as much as working one on one with pet people and companion animals.
I've felt immense frustration with Western medicine thoroughout my life because on many occasions I feel it only addresses symptoms with short term solutions and doesn't take into account the big picture. I don't know how well I am explaining this now, but if anyone shares these interests I'd love to get a PM from you. I think ideally medicine should draw from the traditions of many peoples and use the least invasive methods.
But like Aly (and others!!!!) I'm very much into shelter/rescue work. It's been hard since coming to college though as I don't have access to a car and I'm swamped with work. But I'll get back into the loop. Hey Aly, I'll come to your shelter and volunteer my skills when I'm a vet! someday someday!!;)
Also I'm vegan and into Animal Rights. I'll be going to an Animal Rights Conference at UC-Berkely this Friday-Sunday (Feb 21-23.) Get out of this collllldddd weather for a bit!!!
and that is just the beginning of understanding what is Kate......:p
I'd LOVE to have you :) :)Quote:

Thats very interesting what you were saying about medicine. I think you will be wonderful at it. Let me know when you get your degree, I may just have to be flying my pets to Hawaii to see Dr. Kate !! :D
I miss you on AIM! Hope I can catch you again.
"As for boyfriends, I've noticed that most girls that hang around with guys at a young age, end up breaking up, or getting married, then divorcing. I also personally think it is very immoral to live with a guy that you consider a bf, out of marriage. Its so common in the US that its not considered bad, but people think otherwise elsewhere, especially in more religious/conservative areas. Anyway..................my personal beliefs."
I had my first bf when I was 16 and he was 19. We were togetherfor a year and a half until he had to move back to Alabama to take care of his father. We had the best relationship and were always open and honest about what we were feeling etc. My parents ADORED him!!! And well so did I duh, or I wouldn't have been with him. We didn't break up on bad terms and we even continued our long distance relationship until I turned 18...and I sort of met someone else. :p We are STILL very good friends and well my parents still love him to death lol. As far as breaking up, that happens are ANY age when you are dating. You could get married at 46 and still get divorced etc. I personally think it is a lot better for a couple to get divorced if they are truly not happy. I would hate it if my parents were still together. Man it would be a nightmare!
Dan and I are NOT married, but are sort of engaged (call him my hubby though) but I do not consider him just a boyfriend. He is so much more than that and I don't need a piece of paper telling me otherwise, or to signify our love for one another. We have lived together sinse the day we met actually (not kidding) and have a beautiful baby boy Dylan John who is almost 15 months old on the 25th of this month and I would not trade it for the world! We have been together three years!
It always used to be that couples were "married" between them and GOD, as GOD knew how much the couple loved eachother. There never used to be marriage certificates etc. The same now, GOD knows that Dan and I are in love and well we are married, just in the way we see it. Like I said I don't need to spend 10,000 dollars to show how much I care/love a person.
I do plan on getting married someday and hopefully it will be with Dan (fingers crossed) and if not GOD has chose a different path for me. Anyway, I know I am happy now and that's all that matters.
As long as god knows Dan and I love eachother there is nothing wrong with it in my opinion. Sheesh, I don't ever have to get married and we would still be together forever, which means a lot more than some couples I can speak about.
And I don't plan on getting married any time soon. We will live together forever, if we are married or not.....who cares anyway? Cuz I sure don't!
Hey, no fighting, this is the year 2003, and everyone has the right to live the way they want to. What's it to anyone else if someone is married or not! :mad:
I'm Niina, 27 years, married since Jan.9th 2002 to the most precious man in the world, Patrick. We don't have kids (and never will, by choice), but we have 2 cats, Casper and Kitty, they are our "kids" :D
I'm a student at the moment, livin in a different country than my home country, learning the language and trying to get along with the new culture.
I don't have a drivers lisence, but my hubby does, and we have a new car, Toyota Yaris, (car of the Year 2000).
Thank you Niina! I was not trying to argue, just explaining how I feel. I really don't think a piece of paper is going to change anything between Dan and I, besides the fact that we have a piece of paper.Quote:

I would not consider Dan a bf, he is the father of my son, my fiance and the man I have loved for three years! :D If we got married tomorrow we would still be the same, nothing would change....well besides the fact that we would get a bunch of wedding gifts, lol! :p
