I'm a keeper. (This one's for Dish)

About Me

My name is Cate Stryker. I love the Steelers and Duke men's basketball. I am a nanny, but am losing my job in a few months. I am married to the CEO of Mid-Atlantic Promotions. I have a cat named Sami and a cat named Cali..they rock. I love sushi and gave up meat for Lent. I sell the Pampered Chef....but not very well. I love sleeping in my new bedroom. I want to live in Europe. I want a house by the water. I want Steeler season tickets, not Cleveland. I have an awesome house but no kitchen storage. Someone can live in my bedroom closet. I only like to get my Duke attire at the Duke bookstore. I drink more beer than water. I like expensive shoes but can't afford them. My current goal is to be able to apply eyeliner and not look trashy. Sking is fun!-Peace Myspace For Girls Only - MyGirlySpace.com
