About Me: You know, of all the things in Intarwebland that I find troublesome, writing this page ranks near the top. I know that I should have this page so that you, gentle reader, will have a quick way to determine whether or not you should spend your time on my site. That being said, I’m never sure what to write. What should I tell you here? Do you need to know my shoe size? Date of last medical exam? I.Q.?
Ok, as briefly as possible…
I’m Michelle, a 30-something transplant from Maryland to Arkansas. I grew up a Navy Brat, so moving doesn’t bother me much, although I do miss good crab cakes and non-Wal*Mart grocery stores. I’m 5′ 1″ tall, so to all those Masters of the Obvious out there? Yes, I’m short. You’ll get over it. Anyway. I have a teenage son named David who is the future - if not present - daydream of many a teenage girl. I have a fiance, so if you came here to pick up some totally strange internet female, sorry! He beat you to it. We also have a dog who was a rescue in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. No, we didn’t name him Katrina, we named him Reilly, duh.
I am a pretty good example of my star sign, Aries. I’m girly, but not too prissy, and I like pretty things. I love jewelry and would like to learn how to make it myself. I collect vintage evening bags, the more rhinestones the better. I love to travel. I love books, music, and movies. I fangirl Harry Potter, the Goo Goo Dolls, Sean Biggerstaff, Johnny Depp, and Kate Winslet. My house is almost always in a state of transformation and I’m always hunting for nice things to put into it. I have a nice digital camera and I’m trying to learn how to use it. I’m learning to enjoy cooking but I don’t think I will ever enjoy cleaning; dusting, to me, is worse than scrubbing toilets.
These are the things I write about most often. Once in a while, I’ll touch on current events or I’ll write something snarky about a celebrity. I rarely write about politics, which is not to say that I am uninterested in what’s going on in this country, it’s just that I don’t enjoy the inevitable argument that every political discussion turns into. I don’t mention religion unless it’s to rant about its misuse and abuse. I hardly mention techy/geeky things unless it’s something helpful to the tech/geek mad-skills-deficient like myself.
So, there you have it. Hang around if you like, but behave or I’ll take away the cookies. Oh, and in case you were wondering; Shoe size ranges from 6M to 7W depending on the brand and how puffy my feet are when I go shopping, date of last medical exam is too far back to remember, and my I.Q. is so high that when Tickle tried giving me my test results their website broke.
