1. FIRST NAME
Melissa

Anne
3. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
No one real. My parents got the name from a soap opera character.

The other day. I was reading an incredibly emotional blog written by a woman who lost her baby daughter the same day she was born and is now pregnant with a little boy.
5. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
Usually not... I'm so used to typing that my hand misbehaves when I write and one thank-you note looks like three personalities wrote it.

Turkey.
7. KIDS?
Yes, one.
8. WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
Sure. But I'd be really annoyed that I never call myself back.
9. DO YOU HAVE AN ONLINE JOURNAL?
What the hell? The Jets are playing "Sweet Caroline"! With the "Bah-bah-bah!" and the "So good! So good! So good!" What is this crap? Who gave the Jets permission to steal this, and why would they want it? God, the Jets suck. Hahaha they're going to lose to Indy. Wait, I hate Peyton. This game is lose-lose for me.

Golden Grahams. But usually I eat Kashi.
14. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF?
Most of my shoes don't tie. Probably just my sneakers, and no, I don't untie them. Still, when I go to put them on again, I always glance to see if they've been magically untied. They never are.

When I was sitting in the bleachers in Fenway on Friday, a lot of people around me were singing "oh oh oh" instead of "bah bah bah" during Sweet Caroline. What is up with the universe?
Carly - Have you noticed how Peyton has been pimping himself in a million commercials lately? His agent knows he'd better collect now because soon even his most loyal fans will have to accept that he can't keep it up in the postseason.
Red - Normally I'd have something to say about bleacher people being a lower life form and what do you expect, but anyone willing to show love and go to the last couple of meaningless games is all right with me. Still - a sharp corrective slap with a ruler is in order for anyone who can't do Sweet Caroline right.
I know, I died a thousand deaths when I realized we had to enter through Gate C. But it was a free ticket, so what are you gonna do.
