post a commentHey there. You already know all of this, but here goes:
-From Central Coast of California, newly married with one super-spoiled fur-child
-I now work in the sales & marketing department of a book packager/producer
-I believe I told Tori about my new blog and then she told you and then you contacted me, or something like that, and the rest is history
-Of course, you're a daily read, but I am really into Yelp.com - most major cities have their own version, but it's a blog-like forum for user-submitted reviews of restaurants, businesses, etc. Kinda like MySpace, because you have "friends" and people leave "compliments," but waaaay cooler. You should check out the LA version!
- Where ya from? Married? Kids?
San Francisco, Unmarried, No Kids
- What do you do (for work and play)?
Ask a lot of questions, stare at my computer mostly. And for fun, go out? Just try to relax when I can? And travel!
- How'd you find this here blog?
I don't recall. A link here and a link there?
- Tell me one of your other favorite daily reads!
OH OH! :) http://robservations.net
Fun! ;)
You already know most of this, but I'm game!
Where ya from? Married? Kids?
Michigan originally. Grew up in San Diego. Been in LA since college. Single. No kids yet. Hopefully though, after I get married!
What do you do (for work and play)?
Work: Write content for one of my company's websites.
Play: Tennis, write, read, shop, theater, movies, live music, comedy, discover new restaurants, anything with my friends, visit my family. (I totally feel like I'm writing a Jdate essay right now.)
How'd you find this here blog?
I'm not sure actually. I think maybe you found me then I started reading you? Hmm, good question!
Tell me one of your other favorite daily reads!
Wow...everything on my sidebar!
I'm originally from Virginia and have also lived in Texas, Pennsylvania, New York, and Florida. L.A. is home now as I've been here for over 11 years, longer than any of those other places! Married for 11 years, no kids, 3 dogs, 1 hamster.
I'm a pediatric physical therapist. For fun, I spend way too much time online. I also like movies, live music, photography, reading, hiking, writing haiku.
I think I found you via justJENN.
I check in with Cute Overload. It can help with a stressful day.
HI there! I've been a 2 day lurker. I found you through "BlogExplosion" the other day, bookmarked you, added you to my RSS feed and made it a point to come visit you but I have family over from California and I really don't have much time to read blogs but I'm trying to sneak away to get my dose of "blogsphere" anyway. haha!
- Where ya from? Married? Kids? I was originally born in Mexico, raised in Los Angeles,California but am currently residing in San Antonio, TX. I am married, my husband is in the Air Force, thus why we travel and move around so much. I don't have any kids, currently TTC through infertility treatments. :-)
- What do you do (for work and play)?
I like photography, webdesign, exercise, reading... ah! You know simple stupid stuff like that. LOL
