Ah, the confinement of an "about me" box. The urge to write mindless babble about my love of walking on a sandy beach at sunset is starting to take over...
Okay, but "for really" (a phrase coined by a former roommate), I'm a reporter for a twice-weekly newspaper about 20 miles north of Charlotte, NC. I've loved the written word since I was young and someone told me I was good at it. My aspirations include, but are clearly not limited to, becoming a featured columnist, perhaps writing a book (children's book maybe?), writing for a French publication (or an English-language publication in France) and working with journalism ethics for the Society of Professional Journalists.
Yes, I'm aware that my primary goals surround work, but I've never been one for the white picket fence dream...
Gabbing about the boringness of my life? Since 2001. Taking blogging more seriously? Several attempts since 2005.
Fill in the blank: "People who like _________ will love my blog!"
having absolutely nothing better to do
What makes you different from other bloggers?
A whole lot of nothing.
Yours truly with my new glasses. A friend mentioned I look like a pornographic librarian. Another commented on my Facebook that it's not "Pornbook" and I should "take this photo elsewhere." The folks (a word that has become part of my everyday vernacular since moving to the South) I know are clearly a bunch of lunatics - i.e. my kind of people.
This is my one-year-old puppy Sophie. She's talked about quite often on my blog - mostly my adventures in attempting to be a great dog-mommy - and she's quite adorable to look at, but, then again, I'm rather biased. She's a Heinz 57 mix, meaning she's everything from black lab to chihuahua, and she's a gigantic pain in my ass. Yet since I adopted her in March 2008, I haven't been able to imagine life without her.

It is so beautiful up here, every time I look out my window I feel truly blessed to be able to live up here while in school.

Some people just aren't list people, which is fine. If I don't write it down, I'll forget. Yes, I do attend App. State. This is my third year. I love it.

I'm just a list person. I love to make lists and cross things off of it. Also I look at it as mini-accomplishments that lead to one big accomplishment, which is exciting. I'm at a point in my life where the only thing I do is school work, so it makes me feel like I am actually doing something with my life.

And I'm a theatre freak, so I wouldn't know what to love about Penn State, except that it's in Altoona, which is fun to say.
If you can't love me (which is cool since I'm married) at least try to love my blog. It's an extension of me at any rate.
And this is coming from a former optician and the son of a librarian.
Does that make me sick? Well, it makes me sick.
