I’m been writing (and blogging) professionally for several years, so it’s probably odd that I’ve never had a personal blog. There are several reasons for that - lack of time being probably the most prominent. However, I figured that it was about time. So here it is.

What will this blog be about? Who knows!? I think it will be a collection of things that interest me - sports opinions, shopping tips, and probably a few rants and funny anecdotes along the way.

If you are reading this, you probably know me. But if not, here’s just a few tidbits about my life.

I live in Texas with my husband and two dogs. My husband and I both work from home, so we spend 24 hours a day together. And unlike a lot of couples that “need a break” from each other, we actually prefer to be together all the time. We work in our home office (really the converted third bedroom) about four feet from each other.

I stay up really late at night and I don’t sleep much. This is probably unhealthy, but it’s what I do. My husband and I usually go to bed well after 5am.

I write, blog, edit and report on a variety of things. I cover the San Antonio Spurs for WOAI.com and a few other publications. I run a sports message board - SpursTalk.com. I am a Channel Editor at b5media - a fabulous network of blogs. I was the Sports Channel Editor up until recently when I became the Beauty & Style Channel and Technology Channel Editor as well.

Additionally, I write a few blogs for b5 - Shoe Blitz, Just A Formality, The Fantasy Kickoff, and Travel Product Guide (where I co-blog with Mary Jo).

I am also the guide to fashion Accessories for About.com. I have worked for the company for a couple years. I was formerly the guide to San Antonio before I switched to the Accesssories site. Don’t think I’m done yet… I also write for SheKnows.com as their Beauty & Style columnist, as well as contribute to their Food & Cooking channel. I blog about weddings for Bride.ca and Truly Wedding Blog. I also write about sports, travel, fashion, web development and a multitude of other subjects for various blogs, websites, magazines and newspapers.

Sounds like a lot, right? It definitely fills my time.

Alright, enough about me.

The Presidential election is two days away. Though Obama sometimes seems like a lock, I’m not so sure what people will actually do on election day. Who am I voting for? Well, it doesn’t really matter. I will only say that I’m not thrilled with either choice.

Happy Sunday!
