So, what do you do?

As Americans, I think we tend to get way too wrapped up in occupations and degrees and job titles and how we earn money to pay our bills. Admit it, one of the very first questions you ask when you meet someone new is "So, what do you do?" and you don't mean "So, what do you do for Mother's Day?' or "So, what do you do for Yom Kippur?"...trust me, I'm not throwing stones because I'm frequently guilty of this one.

I think we've lost sight of what is ultimately the most important thing...we need to remember the most important thing isn't how we make a living, it's how we make a life.

I'm starting this page in the wee hours of June 11th, 2010...a day that is set to usher in the beginnings of my world being rocked...aaaand enough of the dramatic flair. So, as I was saying, I'm starting this page at the urging of many friends and family.  I'll be honest with you...I'm not sure how often or how long I'll post updates. As often as possible for the next few weeks, months or maybe just for this season of life... but after that, who knows?  Through my posts here you'll probably learn about my past...the things that shaped me...the people who love me...the fact that I'm a geeky nerd who loves the History Channel...maybe even a little bit about how I make a living, but hopefully...most importantly, you'll have borderline stalker knowledge of how I make my life.

Okay, I must go to sleep right now!  Did I just hear you say "why?"....well, that would be because in 12 short hours I'm going to UFREAKINGANDA! WOO to the HOO, my people!

much love,
Peg

PS I'm sure it won't take you long to notice a few of the things I failed to include in the "So,...what about me?" section.  1) I'm a horrible speller, even with spell check. (If you misspell a word badly enough, spell check won't catch it.)  2) I'm even worse at grammar.(shut up, Sydney)  3) Don't even get me started on punctuation... 4) I like to start sentences with "So,..." and 5)...I love ellipses...if you ever get the chance to speak to me when I'm being serious, you'll notice I pause a lot when voicing my oh so frequently profoundly deep thoughts...dotdotdot
