April 4th: 10 facts about me and today's fitness

So tonight's blog challenge is 10 facts about me. So here the are, let me know in comments if you would like to know more about any of them.

1) I have lived in 6 states (California, Wyoming, Colorado, Oregon, Arizona, Hawaii)

2) I spent the summer of 1997 as an exchange student in Europe. I spent most of my time in England though I also visited France and Italy.

3) I spent 10yrs (2002-2012) working in federal law enforcement. 7yrs with The Department of Homeland Security and 3yrs with the FBI, but originally I trained and worked as an International Travel Agent.

4) I have an IQ of 142

5) I miscarried my first pregnancy. I think its horrible that 1 in 3 women will suffer a miscarriage but as a society its hidden away like a dirty secret.

6) I want to go back to school. I would love to study western languages but will probably end up doing something like International Business or Computer Programming

7) I like Worcestershire sauce on my mashed potatoes

8) New Orleans is my favorite US city

9) I am a published poet. My poem "The Whisper" was published in an anthology by the Library of Congress when I was 14.

10) I would move to the UK in heartbeat if the opportunity arose.

It really kicked me in the butt, or socked me in the gut rather :-)
