First blog Awwwaaaay

So here I am. 35 years old and posting my first blog. 

    I feel simultaneously hip and way too old at the same time. I feel like the first posting should be something spectaular and insightful but that really isn't life is it? I will be honest I really have no theme planned or any spectacular message. Just sharing my adventures and trying to hone my craft.

    I guess the place to start is to catch y'all up. yeah.. I just typed y'all. I have no idea why, I have typing tourettes. 
        I am a single mom. I have the worlds best kid. Sorry but I do. I am divorced and the survivor of an abusive marriage. I am also the survivor of a stalker. No not my ex husband, yet another special individual. (The stalker survivor bit I will address later) I have worked in emergency medicine for twelve years. I rescue abused dogs and recently a guinea pig. I have an addiction for MMA and Yoga. (How's that for conflict of interest?) All the while trying to be the best smartass I can be and trying to find the humor in my often chaotic and sometimes scary life. I have recently started dating again which is A. screwed up when you are in your 30s. B. a little scary given my history and C. Kind of exciting. and weird. and sometimes embarrassing. ok Usually embarrassing but that's just me. 
      Over all I am trying to live life to the fullest and find the humor in the moment. Caught up?  Nah.. but you got the cliff notes version and for now that will work...for now. I will fill in the boring days with stories of adventures past and try to be as honest and forthright as I can be. If I miss anything or you want to ask questions.. why the hell not?
