45. My first cat was named Misty. I got him on my 7th birthday, and when I went to college, Misty "went on vacation". I still cry when I think about him.

Good to know about the "picking fights" thing. I appreciate it alot!!
Shout out to 'anonymous'...I am computer illiterate and cannot figure out how to disable anonymous comments. Say your name!!!!! And I will delete comments containing "alot". Not kidding. :)
OMG! Blog readers, where are you? Have I scared you off with my distaste for typos?? It's ok, I won't hold it against you! It's just my bizarre perfectionist tendencies gone out of control!
I'll even publish my husband's 'anonymous' comment, cause he thinks he's so freakin' funny.
So funny! I enjoyed reading them...not sure if I could come up with 58 things. You did a great job.
I liked your list. I would have read it earlier, but I was distracted by something shiny. But what else is new?
The "alot" vs. "a lot" thing makes me crazy, too. So does the "you're/your" thing and the "their/there/they're" thing. Argh!
We have a lot in common. I cheered for 10 years. NKOTB was my first concert. I love Titanic. Seafood? Hate it and the smell of it. Seriously, GAG!
There was some other stuff that we have in common too but I forget.
One thing we don't have in common? I'm a horrible speller.
