Yep. That’s me. Totally my everyday attire.

Sometimes, the Internet can be a lonely place.

Even when you’re running a business based on personality (ahem) & bringing all of you to the table – it’s easy for us to forget that there are real human beings behind the blogs & businesses we admire. Real people with real lives & real quirks & real  flaws. (And sometimes, real bad taste. Exhibit A: See Above.)

So today I’m peeling back the curtain & giving you a little peeksy at who I really am.

Ready? Brace yourselves, darlings.

1. I’m 4’10”. It’s awesome and awful all at once. I don’t think a day goes by where somebody doesn’t ask me, “How’s the weather down there?” C’mon, guys. Let’s step it up – that one’s been around since 1985.

2. I’m obsessed with gangster rap. Rags to riches stories are the best. I only had one poster in my room in college all 5 years: Notorious B.I.G. Why? ‘Cause it’s all good, baby baby.

3. I may or may not be a milk addict. I literally drink a gallon every 2 days! My brother swears it’s where I get all my calories. However, I have NEVER broken a bone, so…there’s that.

4. I used to go to a bunch of ridiculous (in the best way), colorful, playful & magical music festivals every year, traveling around the country to get my groove on…amongst other things. 🙂

5. I had a high school sweetheart and we dated off & on for almost 7 years. His new girlfriend hates me though so I’ll probably never talk to him again. Bittersweet, y’know?

6. My grandparents and parents live on Martha’s Vineyard and I used to live there during my first few years of childhood. This always impresses people but seriously? It’s an island that requires you to take a 45 minute ferry ride to get to he nearest Starbucks and/or shopping mall. Totally not my style.

7. I was published in my first real magazine (Girls’ Life!) in 5th grade. I also published an essay in Seventeen titled, “I’m Addicted to Bad Boys!” and no, I’m not embarrassed (at least not too much).

8. I have diagnosed Social Anxiety Disorder and it used to be so bad I would NOT TALK if there was a stranger in the room. Nobody now believes me! But seriously guys, I’m shyyyy.

9. I freaking loooove cats. Especially the cute little orange ones. I have no shame in becoming “the cat lady” in 20 years or so, and I assume I will whether I’m married or single. Let’s just pray if I do have a partner, he aint allergic.

10. I cry at pretty much everything. Songs with great lyrics, movies with sappy storylines, Dove commercials. You know. Anything.

11. I love all things glittery, sparkly or sequin-y. Actually, you guys probably knew that already, didn’t you?

12. I was in a “gifted” program growing up, from 3rd to 7th grade. Basically it meant I got to do whatever the hell I wanted and read whatever the hell I wanted. Hence why I’m such a free spirit today, methinks.

13. I was editor of the women’s issues/feminist magazine on my college campus. Also, cute story: I shared my office with the editor of the literary magazine, and we ended up dating the whole time. Not-so-cute story: I assigned one of my staff to write about designer vaginas, and another to write about strippers. No joke.

14. I was a celebrity gossip reporter for my first two years out of college and it solidified my obsession with pop culture (and specifically, the Kardashians). I don’t care what anybody says, I love that kooky little family.

15. I’m a certified holistic life coach and I really have no clue why. 🙂

16. My BFF lives in Chicago and EVERY TIME I go I end up getting my ass kicked (figuratively). One time I puked in a parking garage (effing hangover) and another time I passed out on the L…like literally fell onto the guy behind me. Whatev. It’s still my fave city in the world.

17. I don’t know whether I want to have children. Maybe this’ll change, maybe not.

18. About a week after my birthday, I always start telling people, “OMG! I’m almost [whatever my next age is]!” It annoys everybody. But seriously, once your birthday’s over, you’re already well on your way to your next birthday, y’know?

19. I was a horrible teenager. I would tell you more about it, but well…I wouldn’t wanna embarrass my parents (oh, wait…)

20. I’ve traveled out of the country to only two places – England (twice) and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I’m very much looking forward to exploring more of this vast, glorious world of ours.
