I know enough to know that when you're in a pickle... call Mom.

I do like having my ears pierced, because there's a lot more choice in pierced earrings than there is with clip-ons, and they're a lot more comfortable to wear - Sometimes I completely forget I've got them in and end up going to sleep wearing them.

My parents came from a poor background and worked their way up because of education. They saw it as a way to succeed. So they cared about me getting straight A grades when I was growing up.

After the kids are asleep you... well, you know. Whatever it is. You slip away for a night.

Going after 'the bad guy' has not been a real issue for me.

But I'll never be one of those women who feel that they always have to wear earrings and aren't properly dressed without them.

I am usually part of any disaster at a wedding if I'm a bridesmaid, which I've been lucky enough to be several times.
