ABC's of Me

well i've begun about a half dozen blog posts in the last month, only to delete them half way through. i don't have the energy or voice to carry me through to the end. i don't know why. i feel like i'm in a creative cloud.

this takes very little creativity, and gives me at least a position in which to write something. a part of me hopes it helps clear some of the fog. if nothing else, it gets my brain moving a little as i think of the answers.

here goes!

A – Available or Married?

Married--Two years this week!

B – Book?

i don't know if i have a favorite, but probably the best paper i ever wrote in college was on "the awakening" by kate chopin. it actually wasn't even the assigned book. i requested to write it on that book because i loved it so much. it spoke a lot to who i was in college. 

C – Cake or Pie?

pie. or cheesecake if that counts. 

D – Drink of Choice

i'm a true water girl. i almost always prefer water. but i have a weakness for sweet tea and cherry coke.

E – Essential Item?

chapstick. 

F – Favorite Color?

blue or red (depending on the purpose)

G – Game to Play or Watch?

watch...wait am i choosing or naming? i don't do participation games...like the ones at showers. i do, however, love watching sec football.

H – Hometown?

warner robins, georgia. but i claim montgomery, alabama because it's what i remember the most and travel to the most.

I – Indulgence?

pedicures and gourmet mac n cheese

J – Job?

ha. which one? 

K – Kids?

a nine month old daughter named June..... :)

L – Life is incomplete without?

God, my family, dogs, carbs, and large bodies of water

M – Music group or singer?

i think this changes based on the stage i'm at in life. but i have to say the one band i have consistently loved since i was a teenager, through all life stages, has been dave matthews band. say what you will. i don't care. i'll shout it from the rooftops.

one younger sister

O – Oranges or Apples?

granny smiths. with brie.

P – Phobias / Fears?

roaches. and tragic death of loved ones.

Q – Favorite Quote?

in design school i had the pleasure of being taught by dr. maryann potter, the feistiest, no-nonsense design senior out there. she was very quotable. one of my favorites of hers (directed at something as simple as calculating how much paint you need per room) spoke to much more than she meant it: 

"you're trying to get lost in the forest. there's no need to. there are no trees here." 

R – Reason to smile?

my daughter

S – Season?

fall

when done well, i like them very much on others, but i have none of my own. i'm too indecisive.

U – Unknown fact about me?

i played 3 or 4 musical instruments growing up. i also painted (i was better at painting than music i think). i was offered a scholarship (twice) to scad but i didn't go because of their lack of academics. i thought it was unrealistic.
