[LadySarah]

I'm Sarah

1. How old are you? I am 22

2. What are your living arrangements? I rent a two bedroom apartment with my boyfriend. He is divorced and has a son, 4 years old, from the marriage who lives with us a few days a week. Which it is actually funny because my boyfriend and I were friends for 5 years before dating and were going to move in together as roomates before dating, we just took it to the next level by dating.

3. What do you drive? a 96 purple plymouth breeze. The car I learned to drive on.

4. Whats your favorite drink (non-alcoholic)? I actually drink a lot of green tea. In fact i was drinking the Arizona with ginseng when I decided to read this thread. So it was funny that it is Froggy's fave.

5. Whats your favorite restauraunt? I love Pasta so the Olive Garden. But Red Lobster is right up there too. they are owned by the same company though.

6. How many fish do you own RIGHT NOW? 7

7. What is your newest pet? We have a small tank for my boyfriends son with guppies. Had all male in there but just bought a couple of females yesterday to make them happy.

8. Its 9am on a typical Tuesday morning...what are you doing? Sleeping. I am in college but have no classes on those days this term. Plus my boyfriend works nights so I usually hop into bed with him when he comes home in the morning.

9. Why are you filling out these questions? My boyfriends at work. He works a twelve hour shift and to boot he commutes two hours one way to work. I am all alone with my computer, and of course you all

10. What type of music do you listen to? I am actually funny when it comes to this. I am really quiet and a business major, so a lot of people, including my friends who dont really know me see me as being pop. But my favorite bands are KISS and AC/DC. I just saw KISS in concert for the second time. So overall I guess it would be classified as classic rock. I also like dance, I love to go clubbing.

11. What do you like to do in your spare time? My brain is so fried from chasing a four year old boy around half of the week and doing homework that I usually stare into space, sometime at the TV. I am a little crafty though, so sometimes I paint. Whatever is calming and soothing so that I dont have a nervous break down from the stress from school.

12. Where did you get your MFT name? Actually when I was like 14 or 15 some guys in a chat on ICQ gave it to me. It just stuck. I was trying to think of a name for myself that sounded good. They thought that I was sweet and nice so they thought that Lady was fitting. I use it everywhere. Or I tack numbers on the end, usually 00 or 69.

12. Where did you get your MFT name? Darwin is my idol- I majored in anthropology and he's kind of the father of the discipline. Fem- Kind of obvious, I'm a girl! Also kind of a feminist thing, I guess. Fish- Well, you know! Also could refer to those little "Darwinfish" things.
