Lisa by the Numbers

I'm not a very numbers-oriented person. Today, however, as I was puzzling over what to write about, I happened to come across the number of blog posts I've written since I moved my blog here from Typepad in May 2009. That got me started thinking about other significant numbers in my life, so I thought I'd try a Lisa by the Numbers Post.

So here, in no particular order, are some fun facts about me.

Number of years as a NJ resident: 17

Number of years as a PA resident: Counting college? 40. Still a Jersey girl, though, even if the numbers don't bear that out.
