Such an open forum lends itself to complete randomness and I
confess to being a little bit overwhelmed with where to start or what to write
about. The 15 year old high school
student in me feels that if you can’t write things that are related to each
other in some sort of cohesive way, then it’s just rambling. The grown up in me says screw it. I can do what I want!
So what do I want to write about today? I don’t know. I’m actually playing around with how my blog
looks and it’s a little distracting. I
like to consider myself somewhat computer savvy, but sheesh. I suppose the proper etiquette might be to
tell you a little bit about myself. Most
of my family… actually all of my family… calls me Missy which I used to hate
but now that I’m in my 30’s I don’t mind so much. Is this me trying to recapture my lost youth? I’m the oldest of 3 girls and the aunt of the
coolest little girl I’ve ever met. Don’t
worry, you’ll be hearing about Samantha or Samma Jamma as I call her. My parents were married for 25 years until my
mother passed away. I’m a total Daddy’s
girl. I work in hotels in administration, sales, reservations and conference
services. Eventually I plan to get my
meeting planner certification aka CMP. I
live just outside of DC and love it. It’s
not too expensive to fly anywhere from here and there are lots of places within
a reasonable drive for some fun trips.
What I like that I’m not ashamed : My family… duh… my DVR
and TV, NASCAR ( I embrace my inner redneck proudly), old black and white
movies and movie musicals, The Kane Show (google it, hysterical), nail polish
in unusual colors, bread and cheese, diet mt. dew, University of Tennessee
sports, music of all kinds, black and white photographs, American history…. Sheesh
I could go on forever so I’ll stop now…
What I don’t like: Mean people, stupid people, rude people
(see a trend?), mornings, bills, wicked hot summers, skin scorching sun,
cancer, traffic, people who feel compelled to rubberneck thereby CAUSING
traffic, poor customer service, etc…
What I WANT to like because are good for me: Hiking in the
woods, oatmeal, green peppers, brussel sprouts, getting up early to exercise,
exercise, yogurt
What I want to learn before the end of the year: Knitting or
crochet, how to cook a turkey well, cake decorating, how to install bathroom
tile, how to install a bathroom vanity (can you tell I just bought a house J ). We’ll start a new list in 2012, I have to
find a job first.
I believe that is enough to start. It’s about 6:30am so I may have something
else to say later today, we’ll see.
Obviously I don’t have any kids since there’s the possibility there
might be more than one post in a day.
Let the rambling begin!!!
