Meme - Are you spoiled? (From Robwilli)
I guess I am spoiled but seeing that Vicky and I are in our mid-upper 30's, both have college degrees (Vicky has a Master's degree), I think we have earned the right to be spoiled a little. Besides, some of the items they count as spoils are pretty weak (Washer and Dryer???) or redundant (Been out of the country/Been to Europe/Been to the Caribbean/Been on a cruise)...
Oh well...whatever...
