Heh I know, I've been a tomboy for a long time! It seems to invade most parts of my life, but it's fine, it's who I am
And one day, you won't be the bait anymore, I'm sure ^^

I really would like to! I've just got to look into getting one of those GPS thingies first, so I don't get TOO lost. I take it you do Geocaching?
Yep! Not as much in the summer, because it's so bloody hot here in AZ, but almost every night in the winter we'll go and do at least one or two. If you have a smart phone with GPS there are a few free apps that you can get to do the same thing - they're not as accurate as the actual GPS units, but between comments on the cache and clues in the description you can usually find it anyways.

Thanks for the link! I'm probably going to try to do a few before I move out of FL. I do have a smartphone, so I suppose I'll try using that before buying a GPS. Thanks for the tips! And I'll definitely add you. ^^

Wow! That's really impressive. I doubt I'll be THAT devoted, though. I have really bad asthma and allergies, so that's why I've been a little hesitant at starting. I can't go hiking all over the woods or anything. D:

You do not have to do alot of hiking in all cases. Some of the hardest ones I have found are in parking lots of stores. Now don't get me wrong I have been on long hikes just to find one or two. If you need any pointers just shoot me a pm and I will help you out.

Oh, I see. Well, that's good, for sure. I'm probably going to take a look around the site, and I'll let you know if I've got any questions. I appreciate it.

I have a lot of crafting type hobbies and not much else!
Apart from cross-stitching, one of my main hobbies is card making and scrapbooking. I also recently took up quilting and knitting. I love working with my hands so pottery is also on the list!
I love reading and do so for hours each day when I can fit it in.
I have a few other crafty hobbies besides cross stitch. I can knit, crochet and I am learning to sew. After seeing the awesome crochet blankets on here that are sprite based I might just have to get out my crochet stuff for a while, I never would have thought of doing granny squares to make a sprite. I also enjoy reading and gaming. I play WoW and playstation 3 the most although at the moment I am not playing WoW because I am making time for other things.
