3) Where do you live?
Omaha,NE and I know a lot of people would say that they hate NE, but I really love my life here. We have big enough city where I can go see shows and concerts and there is always something to do. (although some people will say otherwise, but that is because they suck and our too lazy to find something to do!!) But we don't have all of the smog and too many people that other cities have.

My name is Abigail
I am a return-semi-regular to TTCAL. Returning because I just had m/c #2 on 7/25, and I say semi-regular because I seem to be on here a lot for a few days and then not at all some days and it just goes back and forth. Not on purpose, it just happens.
I live in AZ
