The Bump boards are the first I've been on since college. Aside, from the TTGP board, however, I do like to lurk in Babies on the Brain and Natural Birth.
For fun, I like to help my DH work on his classic car, cook, and hike, especially with our dog, a 2 1/2 yr-old 60 lb mut from the humane society.

4) Glyph for Neptune on the lower left side of my back.
