A little about me!

This is in part inspired by the fact I have to come up with a bunch of things no one knew about me for an award I “won” this week..

But also I’m quite chuffed to realise people are enjoying reading my blog and I want to share a bit about me to those people..

I’m 42 yo.. To the blogger who called me a “young lady” I love you best..;)

I live in a large city on the southern end of the planet, with my 2 cats in my gorgeous apartment. I work full time in a high stress but fantastic job that I love and am allegedly very skilled at doing.

And that’s about it I guess..

I don’t want to give too much of myself away because some of the things I post are pretty raw (i.e: messed up! LOL) and I am not sure I’m ready for my workmates or friends to know some of this stuff. Funny how it’s OK to let total strangers know tho? Hmm.. Oh well ..)

Thanks for stopping by. Please subscribe if you’re interested in keeping up with the mental gymnastics I am going thru’ as I grapple with the meaning of it all. Especially that mystery (to me) topic:

TRUE (enduring) LOVE.

    It’s perfectly natural for total strangers to know everything about you while your friends and family remain ignorant. For example, no one I know knows that I used to be a Rockette.

      I get awards for making people spit drinks thru their noses? BUM If I’d known I would have posted way more weird things!!!! *grins* Thanks for the award, I am sorry it took me this long to respond. I do find the comments functionality of this sad a tad vexing!!

    Thanks for “liking” my other secret blog. I can certainly relate to you in that I will spill my guts to total strangers and hide my true feelings from others.

    Haha, thanks for taking the time to stop by and rescue me from my homework 😀 As far as the ‘secret blog’ situation…I’m in the same boat. It’s funny how anonymity can deduce truth. Whew…too many big words in one sentence. Anyways, cheers!!

    I stumbled on your blog. It’s cool I like your style of writing. I also dont give much up about myself on my posts because most of my friends and other people I know cant reconcile that one can have a wild sense of humor and still be ok, anyways great work!!!!

      LOL @ likes – I hear ya there .. sometimes I write things and go “wonder if anyone will read it” but if nothing else it’s therapeutic writing it out.. Love the “finger at the universe” comment on your blog and the fact you called me a young hottie *grin*

    Thanks for liking my post! I love your blog. I’m now following. You pretty much say the things I’m thinking and don’t have the guts to tell anyone else.

    Thanks for sharing.

    heh… I just had a phone call with the guy… can’t say I’m enthused. Oh well, I committed to giving these things more than one conversation before I dismiss them with my pickyness :p

      Oh why not? Voice is so important to me, I wonder if it is to everyone? Sometimes men are really not comfortable talking on the phone but great in person, do give him another chance!! 🙂

      I’m heading out now but will check back soon as I can!!

    Totally understand your desire to remain anonymous. I would never let my family read my blog. If you get everyone you know involved, the raw honesty that makes great writing melts away.

      omg I just got all these notifications today! I am sorry for the super slow response .. As you say, the honesty and openness will fade if one thinks “hmm so and so could be judging oops reading this” 😉

      Thanks for your comment & stopping by my blog!
