About Me

This is me.

 

This is me dressed up as a guy.

I feel like that covers it.

Moving on...

 

My name is Miranda and I'm the mom.

 

In 2012 I was ending a very long, very exhausting career in management that spanned 3 companies and many years.

In 2011 I was ending my life as a single mom of two. I fell insanely in love with Mister and I became the girlfriend that had kids.

In 2010 I was ending a miserable years-long divorce that truthfully didn't have to be that difficult, but I don't like conflict to touch my children's lives.

Everything else before that is just what made me who I am.

 

So, Mister and I live in a tiny town that literally only has one stoplit intersection, is home to some of the worst customer service known to man, but keeps us very close to all of our family. We rent a house that's for sale, have two dogs that are both convinced they're cats, have two children that are both convinced they're older than they are and are having a child of our own this winter.

 

 

Want to know more? Well, aren't you the nosy one.

 

I absolutely hate plain water. Seriously.

I don't miss working. Not even a little. 

I am surprisingly shy. Almost no one knows that because I compensate by being the life of the party.

I was desperately in love with cooking before this pregnancy.

I love hot showers.

I always wanted to be a medical doctor.

I am obsessed with reality TV On Demand after everyone goes to bed so they can't see my shame.

I am an ex-smoker.

I was training to run marathons until around the 6th week of this pregnancy when I became too ill.

I will NEVER understand the zombie craze.

I have a very strange taste in music. Everything from Eminem to Metallica to Reba McEntire to Dave Matthews and about a thousand stops in between.

I don't like to wear shoes.

I love all cheesecake. Any kind. All of it. Yes, please. On my plate right now. Now.

I wear the same 4-5 outfits over and over because I just do not like shopping.

I have an unhealthy crush on Damian Lewis. His picture was my phone wallpaper for awhile.

I secretly want to learn how to sew because I have a new fascination with maxi skirts, but don't own any because of that previously mentioned hatred to shop.

I want to have beers with Ryan Stiles, Drew Carey, the Mythbusters and the entire crew of Top Gear UK. Preferably all at the same time. Imagine the hilarious chaos!

 

 

Oh...and before I forget, I'm crazy. We should just get that out on the table.
