About
Like Hi! So, what do you want to know?
Let me start with a disclaimer: I have absolutely no business writing anything on a blog. I don’t spell well and can barely blend two vowels together. I didn’t know what a blog was 2 weeks before I started this one.
Small blurb about me: Witnessing people at their best inspires me and watching people exit the bathroom with toilet paper hanging out their pants makes me laugh. I grew up to be an interior designer and event coordinator even though I started college pre-law. My friends tell me I sound like a valley girl and my dog has ESP.
Random facts about me:
I fell out of an amusement park ride and landed unscathed.
My dear friend Shane and I were stopped from getting the handicap symbol tattooed on our behinds.
Wearing nothing but a swimsuit, I floated in a tube over a deadly rocky waterfall.
Billy Idol sang “Cradle of Love” to my daughter in Vegas.
I had a vampire coffin in my bedroom throughout my high school years.
Steven King’s dressing room trailer was on my front lawn during the taping of “The Stand”.
I am terrified of Freddy Kruger and Micheal Myers.
I Tivo the Young and the Restless.
I love white tigers.
I conduct one fundraiser a year to raise money for charity.
Drinking iced soy lattes with a shot of white coco is something I do often.
Vincent Clark and Andy Bell sat and took a break on the bumper of my car during one of their concerts.
I was the president of a U.S. Figure Skating club, which makes me a veteran of war.
Hobie Cat sailing on the lake makes me very happy.
I would love to be a martial arts master.
I can handle anything as long as it is the truth and not humid.
I like the color pink.
I swam on a swim team.
I am a certified make up artist and nail tech.
I am a certified scuba diver and afraid of fish.
While snow skiing I jumped off the ski lift.
My favorite college class was a drama course where I learned how to stage fence with a long shiny sword.
My nicknames are: Princess and Prom. Prom as in, Prom Queen.
I have never been stung by a bee.
Reasons I may need therapy: I am a germ phoebe. 75% of my day is consumed by strategies to dodge germs. If I were given 3 magical wishes, the first wish would be: I (and my family) would NEVER get sick. We could massage our hands aggressively all over the hand rails at stores, place our lunch straight down on a picnic table, and without terror use a public bathroom. I have been known to cancel dinner or lunch dates with friends because they sounded a little sniffley over the phone. When my children arrive home from school they are trained to strip down, and put their germ infested school clothes immediately into the laundry room. I put everything that I can in the dishwasher, and iron clothes/linens not so they look crisp but to nuke any of those little bastard bugs that may have survived the bleach. No movie theaters between the months of October and April (I would prefer to never go, all movies should go straight to DVD).
The only thing I fear more than germs is flying in an airplane. I can’t bare the recycled influenza air, magazines slimed with pink eye, the 3 inch layer of rotavirus on the seat belts, AND the dreadful fact the 5 ton iron-coffin will be soaring it’s bankrupted wings 3000 feet high into the sky! Dear Lord, it’s not natural!
Family: I am married to my best friend, he is my partner in crime. If I told him I wanted to trot my stick horse down the highway, he would find a way for me to do it. We laugh about the dumbest things and entertain ourselves by being foolish while remaining acceptable citizens. Together we have children and a 3lb poochie named Gucci Pucci. There is constant circus music in the background of our lives.
Evanzstox: This blog has become a source of my own personal entertainment, and has nothing to do with my professional career. I post when I feel like it. Filling my mailbox with love is an automatic gold star for you. Sending me whiny emails wondering why I haven’t posted all summer or threaten to never return to this site is funny to me, so there.
Welcome to my blog!
