Introduction Let's get the important things out of the way. I don't like Oreo cookies. My pets sleep on my bed. I own four toothbrushes and can never use one twice in a row. I don't really know what my natural hair color is anymore.

This blog is a place for me to write whatever I want. A lot of it is journaling. A lot of it chronicles my journey through infertility and adoption. Sometimes I post about projects. Sometimes I rant about politics or pop culture. I don't feel the need to categorize my life into seventeen different blogs so you get it all here.

I am an individual, a wife, mother, adoption advocate, writer, dreamer, pet lover, psychologist, and a friend. I write for a living, and love it, but my blog is a casual place for me. Don't judge me because my writing here isn't particularly poetic or moving.

I'd love to get to know you. Leave me a comment and let's be friends.

You've been invited to a fancy ball but the only thing you have to wear is an orange wooly jumper. What shoes do you wear?

I will market a perfume that smells like dandelions and become hugely famous. In fact, I'll be a celebrity. The next Coco Chanel. So not only will I be a superhero who can detect lies without batting an eye, I'll be an iconic perfume designer revered through the ages.
