4 things meme

I've been tagged by Vicki over at Field Trips in Fiber...

4 things you may not know about me:

1. I'm a voracious reader.
2. I grew up falling asleep each night to radio plays from the 30's, 40's and 50's. I would tape them onto cassette and listen to them over and over. I have a huge box, still, filled with them although I may no longer have a cassette player.
3. I have a 50 gallon tropical fish tank. I love it - and the fact that it's just conceptually really cool to have a small piece of what is essentially an alien atmosphere in the house.
4. My Oldest suggested that I include the fact that I and the pets (1 dog, 3 cats) are the only girls in the house. Not including the fish.

4 Places I would rather be

This is a toughie. Life is pretty good here. I could see myself and family in Nelson area, or somewhere else in the Kootenays, but all in all, what I need in order to be happy is my friends and family. It's a good thing that great relationships are portable.
