Welcome to the neighborhood, Romance Junkie.

Friends and neighbors, ladies and gentlemen...I'm happy to report that we have a new contributor to Playing With Matches. My good friend Romance Junkie hails from the Sunshine State and has been dating there (and wherever her whims may take her) for over fifteen years (sorry, RJ, to give away your age). She has many good and many bad stories to share with you, our faithful readers, in the days and weeks and months to come. She is always good for a laugh, a shoulder to cry on, an ear to complain to, and an insight in which to revel. Sometimes shocking and more often than not spot on with her analysis and conclusions, RJ will keep us all entertained. Funny, cynical, sarcastic and always sassy, she is sure to be a wonderful addition to this blog.

So welcome, RJ. Let the games begin.
