About me

Gender Female
Industry Consulting
Location Chicago
Introduction My name is Carla. I'm 30-something and left a high-paying job in a profession I really like to stay home with my toddler daughter and do some contract work on the side. My daughter is my joy. She was hard-won, after 3+ years of loss and infertility, and she is more wonderful than I knew what to hope for. That doesn't mean there aren't moments when I'd like to be at a desk sipping a latte and counting the additional discretionary income. This blog will have many gushes of mommy-love, peppered with political rants, Deep Thoughts, and various ramblings.
Interests Being home with my daughter, the performing arts, training and development, reading, writing, daydreaming about winning the lottery.
Favorite Movies Many, many. Better Off Dead will always hold a special place in my heart.
Favorite Music Anything good. Mostly alternative rock, and yes, show tunes!
Favorite Books I am a Harry Potter freak. Other than Harry, I like to read anything good. I can't waste time with poorly written pith.

When you spilled the milk, did it look like the moon?

I don't drink milk, but my daughter hung the stars.
