In the spirit of the 3-way blog and the weekend 3-way, each blogger is asked to provide 3 interesting facts about herself.
Ellie:I still use the present tense when I say the Mistah and I are "On the Road" although we've lived most of 2008 in our houses in Fort Davis Texas, and in New London Connecticut. But for the previous 7-1/2, we've been gallivanting around the country in our 1987 VW Westfalia "Westy" camper, outstaying our welcome with sisters and friends and state parks all over this great land.
I love the summer, and hate the winter.
I'm an auntie extraordinaire, a kidney donor, a gourmand and an oenophile. Which is fancy for I love to eat and drink. And which is also more than 3 facts.
Beth:
I’m a soon-to-be divorcee currently dating a man born in a Colorado prison. I’ve got two cats, two kids, and too many things to do in any given week. I’m a monkey gemini (the gymnast of the Zodiac) who currently works for an online medical publishing company, but secretly longs to be an acupuncturist. I love to talk, and I love beer. I love to talk while drinking beer, but don’t ask me to laugh while drinking wine, it’s a bad idea.
Jacquie:
I am not a neat person. I am not at all Monkish. I want, need, and deserve a housekeeper, but my house is in such a constant state of mess and mayhem that I can not conceive of a way to accomplish this simple goal.I think my 40s will bring many changes to my life, and I think it will be my best decade yet.
I love to be alone. One of my happy places is in a movie theater, by myself, with a small(ish) popcorn in hand and a bottle of water in my bag, in the seat that I have chosen. I love it when my family has gone to bed and I am in my quiet house. As tired as I might be, I have to force myself to turn off the tv or computer or close the book.

And oh my God, does anyone have a good photo of my face?!

Really, Beth? A Colorado prison?
Ellie
Well, you all seem like you'd be a hoot to hang out with!
So... I came into this late, are you guys friends, or sisters who are friends? (Or does that cross the internet taboo line?)
I now find myself oddly jealous of all of you. Ellie: I've always loved you hair and now I love your traveling ways. Beth: Talking and drinking are okay. Just don't operate any heavy machinery. Jacquie: I, too love to be alone. You know what SHOULDN'T be alone? Those boots. I'm taking them the next time I see them.
Well, it's about time. Now I don't have to do all that guessing.
and here I was thinking that it was one chick talking about her thighs.
Cause I have named mine.
Doesn't everyone? *crickets*
Nice to finally "meet" all of you guys!
Peaceable - Ellie is my sister and Beth is my sistah. Sistahs live in San Diego, sister lives in Connecticut but she used to come here sort of a lot in her travelling days.
Jen - I broke out the boots on Friday because it was the first day the temperature dipped below 75,and I was just so happy! I love those thangs.

This was such a great post. I think I might have to hijack the introduce yourself idea and use it myself!
And I thought just dating a man in prison was good, but you got me beat.
Beth, how could you sink so low? A Colorado prison? That must be some kind of wussy country club! A REAL man would have been birthed in the Q! (San Quentin)
I would like to have acupuncture practiced on me. Well, actually, I would like to have it practiced first and then used on me by someone practiced at it.
I also love to be alone, and I would like to hit the road in a motorhome, but my husband won't go with me. I am working out a swap, though, so it may happen one day. I have a Canadian architect in mind who promises to go on The Colonoscopy Tour with me (to be televised in major North American markets).
Pleased to meet you all.
