brought to you by Ron at Atypical Homeschool (He said we could tag ourselves. So, tag, I’m it!) 1. I am overly addicted to navel gazing. (You probably already knew that from the tag.) 2. I hated reading literature in college and grad school, even though I am an English MA and PhD. 3. Sometimes…

I dreamed that I counted all the places (not cities) I had lived and got to 50. When I woke up I tried to count them. I can’t remember all of them in my head, so let’s try writing it down. Kingwood (7 years and you will see why that is amazing quickly) Austin house…

Because I loved the idea, which came from Kelly, Alan, and Annika, I am going to tell you 100 things you never knew you wanted to know about me. 1. I went by my middle name all my life because first names are “family names” in my family. My brother, my dad, my grandfather, and…

Inside the Actor's Studio asks their famous guests some interesting questions. Thought I would answer them about myself. What's your favorite curse word? As a curse word, probably “bad word.” That's the one I try to use. What's your least favorite curse word? As a curse word, fuck. What's your favorite sound? My husband talking…
