All the mad bloggers in my family have inspired me to put pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard... or whatever. I suppose it is a good way to keep in touch, and a way of venting my strange and sometimes radical thoughts.
I think the Beatles had it right when they sang "All You Need Is Love." A little more love and understanding in people's hearts could go a long long way to solving some of the world's biggest problems. But more on that later...
Just a few random tidbits about me to get us started. My ultimate dream in life is to someday go surfing. More than once would even be better. I have heard its similar to snowboarding which is wicked fun, but surfing would not be as cold nor would I hit the ground on my backside if I fell. (Its also a helluvalot cheaper;) Unfortunately my worst fear is deep water and drowning. So I think I have a long way to go towards accomplishing that goal, but I do plan on surfing before I die. I love trees, spiders, apple juice, and driving through really big puddles. I don't like Jay's cold feet in bed, vacuuming, and cooked button mushrooms- ewwwww. I have no patience with slow computers, bigotry in all its disguises, and bad drivers.
My goal for this year is to lose a good portion of this baby weight I have been dragging around since James came along. I have started running again and hope to complete a 5K race in September without coming in last. Now for those of you who can knock off a 5k without even breaking a sweat keep in mind I am REALLY out of shape.
I am fairly liberal in my political leanings, and a feminist to the core but I don't believe one should push one's beliefs on someone else.. I am sure I will talk more about that later as well.
So that's me in a nutshell. I hope my readers find this blog at least mildly entertaining and informative!
