Hi, I'm Broomhilda 2, a new addition to the Soaptown USA family, and the author of Friends In The Basement, a Passions column.

I was born in Europe and raised in Newport News, Virginia and I still live there, along with my cats and my soap obsession. I'm a bartender (and occasional waitress) at a locally owned sports bar called RJ's, which helps feed not only me and my cats, but my other obsession: football! No truth to the urban legend that I was not at my high school homecoming dance because I was on the phone taking bets on the football game.

I have been watching soaps forever, or just as long, anyway. I missed quite a few classes in high school so I wouldn't miss a minute of the Ice Princess story on GH, and when Texas was moved to 11am, hell I just skipped school althogether! Thus began a love affair with daytime that continues to this day. I loved Port Charles (sniff!) and I have been watching Days Of Our Lives since the early 80's. My first love was Guiding Light, which will always be dear to my heart. GH and Days followed and of course, Port Charles. Actually, I have, at one time or another, watched every show. I love good storytelling and I'll tune in to whatever soap has grabbed my attention.

When I'm not glued to the TV watching soaps, I'm glued to the TV watching....football! I have even done the unthinkable: forsaken my beloved Jon Robert Lindstrom and his PC scenes in favor of a football game that was too exciting not to watch. Not that Mr. Lindstrom doesn't excite me....(Broomhilda 2 is swooning and can't type at the moment).

A big huge "thank you!" goes out to Nina for allowing me the opportunity to join the staff here at Soaptown USA. I met Nina at the GH/PC fan club weekend this year and she's the kind of opinionated spitfire I love to call a friend.

I hope everyone enjoys reading Friends In The Basement and don't be afraid to write to me and let me know your opinions. I would love to hear from you!

Broomhilda 2
