What is your name and were you named after anyone?   Dana, I'm named after one of the nurses there when my mom delivered.  They just knew I was a boy, lol and was suppose to be a Jonathon.

Have you had WLS and if so when and what kind?
   Yes, proximal RNY (80 cm bypass), on February 21, 2005.

Do you have any pets? If so, what kind?  
Well, we have two Yorkies and one Lab, a tank full of fish, and 2 hamsters.  Actually they aren't mine but I tend to have to take care of them.  I told my family no more pets until someone else takes care of them.  The Yorkies are Sissy and Sadie, Lab is Sammie, fish have no names, and the hamsters are Tiger and ????? oops, I forget what Conner's hamster is named.

What is one personality trait that really irritates you in others?  
Negative people that just moan and complain about everything in life.  We all face obstacles and have to deal with them.  I don't mind someone being upset and complaining when it's an occasional complaint (I'm not cold hearted), but when everything they do, touch, say is negative "poor oh me" then I can only deal with so much of it.  Time to see the glass as half full and deal with the half empty in a positive way.

Where would you like to spend your retirement?  
On a beach or by the ocean.  I love being by the water and waking up to the surf with a cup of coffee :).  Terry Ann is so fortunate, Lil.

What is the last thing you bought for yourself just for fun?  
   I don't remember, all my extra cash usually is spent on the boys.

How many people from the OH site have you met in real life?  Wow allot, don't think I can name everyone because I'd surely miss someone.  I've been to two OH Conventions, to Dallas last year for Stepha's BBQ, to numerous get-together in Houston.
