Okay, So I'll give this a shot. I'm just a girl. But it gets complicated from there. I'm 24 years old, married with a 2 1/2 year old daughter. I'm trying to finish school while working full time and being a wife and a mother. And if I got paid for all of those jobs, I wouldn't need to win the lottery.

I'm a bit on the quiet side, until you get to know me. I've got dry humor that isn't always taken the right way, sarcasm and wit that never fail, and I'm a pretty cool person to know, or at least I think so. I love to laugh, which means if you are funny I want to know you, or at least talk to you, b/c laughter is the only medicine I really need.

I sometimes feel that I haven't done anything with my life, b/c I was so young when I got pregnant and married. Sometimes I think I'm still a girl playing house. I never got to do any of the things I planned on doing, but I feel more experienced with actual LIFE than almost all of the people I know.

I work at a vet clinic that handles small and large animals. Its an interesting job, and I love animals. Cows and horses are a bit crazier than I thought when I was younger, but I am not afraid of them. I actually fear more the small little chihuahuas that come in for nail trims and try to bite the living fire out of you. They pose more of a threat somehow.

I am a feminist, but not in the traditional sense. I just do the things that any man could do just as well. I don't need to stand in the middle of some riot to prove that I CAN, I just do it and that is enough for me.

I have lots of faults. I am very direct, which can hurt people. I occasionally blow up like an atomic bomb, leaving a mushroom cloud as proof of my destructive ways. I often worry if I am liked, and harsh words towards me make me build walls. They are only made of cardboard. I am usually ok after apologies and/or general conversation.

I have very few true friends. One is my husband, Joey. He is so wonderful to me, but that's not to say he can't give me a good verbal hashing when I am being irrational. And he's not perfect. But he does love me for who I am. He knows everything about me and still loves me, which is something I have grown confident in. He is protective and bold, but modest abut himself. He has so many great qualities, but very rarely does he let anyone see those things. Sometimes I feel like I alone truly see him, and everyone else only sees an illusion. The other is my best friend Angie, who has been with me since middle school. She also knows my good and bad, my true self. I also truly see her, all of the outside and in, and know that she is truly beautiful in so many ways.

My daughter is my life. She means so much to me. She has taught me patience and unconditional love, which can only come from being a mother. It is something only another mother can understand. Everyday she grows more beautiful, more precious, and I feel myself constantly worried about the world and how much it will scar that wonderful innocence that she possesses. I want another child when I complete my degree and get my 'real' job. If it is a girl her name will be Seraphin Rose. (pronounced Sarah-feen). If a boy, Xander Kain. I look forward to adding to my family.

So that is me, I think. If I left anything out you can read future blogs and ascertain who I really am. Actually, I think I'm still figuring that one out for myself.
