Over at the
Mocking Bird blog today, there's a bit of discussion about how, when one is asked "What do you do?" it's not really sufficient to just tell them how you make money. In a lot of cases, that really doesn't necessarily say anything much at all about who you really are as a person. I'm lucky enough to have a job doing something I love...I've always been a bibliophile, and now, as a librarian, I'm PAID to be a bibliophile! But not everyone is so lucky. And even though telling people I'm a librarian really does tell them something about my soul and my self, it's not everything I am. It's not my be-all and end-all. There are other parts. So, Amanda at Mocking Bird tells us who she is...what she does. And here's who I am, and what I do:
I am
- a photographer;
- a writer;
- a wife;
- his Queen;
- a baker of cookies;
- a cat-belly-scratcher;
- a Polaroid-shooter;
- a drinker of coffee;
- a wearer of boots;
- an embroiderer;
- a miso soup eater;
- a lover of the ocean and the beach;
- a collector;
- a Rat Pack music listener;
- a cartoon watcher;
- a sometimes couch potato;
- a paleontology geek;
- a feeder of squirrels;
- a hater of spiders but lover of cicadas;
and so many more wonderful and weird things.
And what do YOU do?
