About Me

"To be beautiful, all a woman needs is a black pullover and a black skirt and to be arm in arm with a man she loves."

Shopping in a department store makes me feel like an idiot. I work with details and minutia. I am taking "detail oriented" off of my resume. Questions to clarify the obvious really get on my nerves. The other day, Addie and I were sitting out on the porch, and Black Kitty came to the table and put her paws on it. Addie said, "She is so like, 'I wanna be part of THIS club!'"

Learning, I love learning, discovering and understanding new things.

Words.

I love to cook anything from cornbread and butterbeans to foie gras (ok, I've never made foie gras, but it was the only thing I could think of as being opposite of cornbread and butterbeans)

Art

My health: I like to run, work out, stay fit, eat organic foods when I can, yes, Anna, I even drink water!

I love hair and fashion, but those aspects of my life have fallen down the priority list since I've become a mother.

Tweezing my eyebrows.

Exfoliating

Eyeliner

Toe cleavage

Exposing my children to things I love.

Looking in people's windows at dusk.

Convincing my friends that we should all live in a commune...

The idea of Polygamy.

Sparkly things.

Convincing girls they need to demand old fashioned courtship...
And then that they should live in my polygamous commune

Salty food.

Doing housework ballet-style.

Rain Running.

Pink things.

Spending the night in Amy's luxurious bed and being lazy all day with her

Sweeping, it's therapeutic.

Taking Naps

Keeping Secrets.

Music:

I like music that makes me sing out loud, music that makes me tap my feet, music that makes me think and music that makes me smile.

Down with Love

Like Water for Chocolate (but I liked the book better)

Last Tango in Paris

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Two Moon Junction

Television:

Rock of Love is trashy and I love it.

"What Do You Care What Other People Think?" Further Adventures of a Curious Character - Richard Feynman (it was actually a christmas gift i bought for someone else, but i may have to borrow it first)
