(There's a TON of stuff I wish I had known at 20, but I guess things wouldn't have worked out like they have, in that case.) Janet, Caatje, and Donna, I want to see those lists! :-) By the way, Donna, I don't have the bottles on my blog yet, but maybe I'll post about them soon. Parabolic Muse, I'm happy to hear it! Angi and Jen, thank you for sharing the ones you identify with the most. Thanks to everyone for stopping by and commenting!

For whatever reason, it took me a long time to realize this. I would trudge through books just to get through them. Sort of kills the joy of reading. <br /><br />Great list!<br /><br />--JenJennifer Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01459363843692965338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5400765619482940144.post-26384207775310955702011-04-06T23:37:44.056-04:002011-04-06T23:37:44.056-04:00Andria,
