The best word for me might be dizzy. I always have a bunch of stuff going on at once. I'm 32 and I have three crazy wonderful kids. I'm a full-time law student and the wife of one of the "good ones." My family means everything to me, and I try to live my life in a way that is deserving of them.My likes: Reading almost anything, playing barefoot in the grass with the kids, singing in church, shoes, tomatoes, pickles, talking on the phone (just ask my wireless carrier), a clean house, my job, my mom's laugh, and just being with Michael.My dislikes: People who love themselves a little too much, being separated from the people I love, and cruelty.Friends: I like meeting new people and getting to know them. I'm fiercely loyal, talkative, and prone to sticking my foot in my mouth. I love my friends for who they are.My biggest flaw: I need to find some serious time for the gym again. Oh and I'm blunt. Very blunt.

My Interests

My kids, my guy, school, work, and my friends.

I'd like to meet:

Rebecca--for manis and pedis, a chick flick, Brazilian food and karaoke.Michael--anywhere/anytime.Billy June--for a long stroll down memory lane.Diane--for shopping.Oprah--come on, admit it, you'd like to meet her too.The Justices of the Supreme Court for a friendly game of Scattegories or maybe karaoke (I sense a trend).Of those who have passed--Janis Joplin, Patsy Cline, Emily Dickinson, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath, Elizabeth Bishop, Stanley Kunitz, my great grandmothers, Tennessee Williams, Eugene O'Neill, Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, and John Lennon.

Books:

Anything well-written or deliciously scandalous. Lately I'm enjoying Estate and Gift Taxation. I know. I know.

Heroes:

There are so many people out there who have touched my heart at some time or another. I think they all have a little hero in them.

My Blog

Why I only like to cook for company.

Tonight I had the great pleasure to cook dinner for people I truly admire. Now those of you who know me well know that I'm not a big fan of cooking the everyday meal. With three small kids I can't g...

The One Called.

There is nothing like hearing his voice. It calms me and excites me at the same time. I could sit for hours and listen to him talk about anything at all. I am so honored to be his wife. He's a goo...

She made a dog a birthday cake.

My father-in-law's wife has always been two things 1. a domestic goddess who can cook, craft, bake, garden and decorate like Martha had Martha been a Texan and 2. an animal lover who will take in any ...

Every time I buy a powerball ticket...

I write a list of the things I would do with the money. This was my last list when the pot was 300+ million (though if I ever do win the powerball lottery, this list is in no way meant to make any pe...

Let’s Share

Tonight is a night to share a poem. I guess recent events in my circle have made me think about love and marriage (not the Married with Children theme song by the way). While there are numerous old ...

First Day of the Last Year of Law School...

It's here. 3rd Year. Supposedly it's supposed to be an easy year. I have a hard time believing that. Had I not gotten the bright idea that I'd like to practice in some pretty intense (for me) area...

TOP MODEL BARBIE

Today I got a call from my Becky. She had been wandering through the aisles at Target with her 6 year old and ran across the new Top Model Barbie. She was upset when she called and said I must take ...
