Let's Celebrate ... Giveaway!!

Hey friends of Nicole! 

My name is Lyzz and I blog at Defying Gravity!

I have been blogging off and on for over 2 years, and this is the 2nd blog I've started.  I am married to "P", who is going through Special Operations Training at Fort Bragg, NC.  We have been married for 3 years and have no children yet.
I am currently a full time student on the hunt for a job, because we like money and I like to have stuff, plus my car payment sucks. I am addicted to Starbucks Frapps and live for my pooches. 

You may remember when Nicole wrote about meeting me at her hotdog party.  I seriously think I need to have one of those, or just a hotdog.  I'm having a late night craving.

With Nicole celebrating her 3rd bloggyversary, and me turning 30 years old on July 15th (where did the time go?), I thought I would share my birthday wishlist and make a go of having a giveaway!!

I have over 11 tattoos and want a new one.
