It's ME!

I used to think people who wrote blogs were narcissistic beings who just wanted people to pay attention to them (used to=still kind of do). Well, this blog isn't really for you. It's for me! (Cue video clip of Tyra, "It's me!" You'd get it if you watched "The Soup). But really, I want to keep up my conversational/funny/lame/non-education writing and thought this would be a good outlet. I write stories about budgets, policies, taxes, school board meetings and government officials every day and sometimes feel boxed in by the structure of it all. Sure, I write feature stories and can be more creative, but it's hard to be as clever or funny as I want to be in a newspaper article.

So, here I am.

This blog doesn't have a theme, though you will probably find some thematic elements in it. I'll tip you off to a few: Chachi, celebrities, celebrity gossip, TV shows I watch, movies I've seen, funny moments from my day, a possible daily crisis or two, etc. It won't get personal. You probably won't be able to peer into my soul, either. But hopefully you'll walk away amused and maybe think to yourself, "I guess she made an OK choice becoming a writer. She'd be better as a typist, though."
