About me

I'm a little hard to nail down when it comes to "About me" pages. I think that's why I abhor writing them. While I would love to come out here on the blogoshpere and tell you all with definite answers that these certain things are me, I can not do that. The fact is I can't definitively tell myself who I am, so how the hell am I supposed to tell all of you? However do not despair, there are some things I can tell you about myself that I hope will not send your fingers itching toward your mousepads. First of all, I am a writer, a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. These are just some of the titles I hold that come nowhere near to defining who I am as a whole person. Yes, I am a writer but I am also a lover of music and dancing in a variety of its forms. I like artists from Outkast to Frank Sinatra and though I trip over both of my left feet I appreciate those who can and do dance well.
Most of the time I'm all over the place. I like a variety of things from doomsday prepping to scrapbooking. I have a voracious appetite for reading (who would have guessed, right). I am clumsy and have my duh moments (too many that I would rather not admit to). I am the mom who has repeatedly poured kool-aid in her and her children's cereal. I love nature, I have been accused of being a hippie by my husband on more than one occasion. When I die I want my ashes to be put into a tree seed so I can grow into a tree (or be frozen). Occasionally I belt out show tunes when I think I'm home alone and pretend I'm on stage and cut a rug. I long to travel the world and see every bit of it before I die, but I'm too afraid to do it (I'm working on it).
Like I said I'm still not sure who I am as a person or a writer. I know who I want to be though so I'm hoping that will be good enough for right now. I want to be someone who is confident in themselves and in their work. Someone who is successful in their career path. Someone who is not afraid of taking chances or speaking their mind about what they think. Someone who is genuine with everyone. Someone who loves herself, and others and is not afraid to show it. Someone who knows her feelings and what she wants out of life.
