I'm Somebody Now!

I recently read in Glamour that it was OK if you did not have a blog. That you are still a valuable person. Whatev, Glamour. I have joined the ranks of the blogger. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time now, but apparently, the three step process was too much for me to wrap my brain around. Now, however, I'm doing it. And I'm very excited!

Originally a farm girl, I am a lover of books, fried rice and '80s dance hits. I dig liberal bumper stickers, equal rights, playing rousing games of Horse, poetry, irises, and anything sung by Kenny Rogers. I've just about done it all (job-wise) at the tender age of 25 (that's what 6 years of school gets you, about 18 gazillion summer jobs). I hesitate to call myself a writer yet, though that is something I am working towards.

There have been lots of big changes in my life and I'm so glad I now have a venue to share. Blogspots are super cool. I recently (like a week ago) moved back to the town where I did my MA in English to teach a few sections of College Composition. Finally, I got my foot in the door and am exactly where I want to be for the next few years. I hope my other blogs will be more exciting than this one, cuz this one's a little corny and boring. Since I've been back in town, though, I've gone to a poetry slam, drank, danced, taught, and did a little karaoke, so it shouldn't be too hard to find drama and excitement here.

Peace!
