Life would be simplier if...
I weren't in love with a divorcing father of two teenagers. Simpler perhaps, but not better.

I feel most beautiful...
Right after a long run.

The quality I least like about myself is...
My need to always make progress and my desire to blame others for my own indecision.

Something that no one knows about me is...
That all I want is to be able to prove that I can love someone well.

Guiltiest pleasure?
Malted milk balls.

High road or low road?
High road, as long as I can be the driver.

My favorite possession is...
My passport.

When I was little, I wanted to be...
A harpist — yikes!

What surprises me most about my adult life is...
That it's completely manageable yet utterly terrifying in ways I never imagined.

The big decision I'm currently wrestling with is...
If I'm ready to begin the process of adopting a child on my own. (Click here to read more about Jeanne's decision.)

My motto is...
I may be slow, but I can go on forever (athletically speaking).
