This submission is an ongoing project here at Band Back Together.


The project? Define Yourself.


I Am Me.


So who are you?


I have a crazy-good memory.

I do not like different types of food on my plate to touch each other.

I read several books a week.

There is cooking, and there is starting a fire in the microwave - I haven't quite figured out the difference.

When you are in the grocery store, and they play a song full of awesomeness, I'm the woman on the next aisle that you can hear singing (there may also be a little dancing) because I believe life is too short to hold the singing inside.

I fight the darkness that depression brings, and more and more I find myself winning.

I believe cookies are a food group, as are doughnuts.

I watch musicals, and I sing along.

(for someone who does all this singing, I'm a little fuzzy on what exactly it means to be "on tune", and I'm pretty sure there aren't any record companies wanting to knock on my door...I sing anyway)

I am a survivor.

I was at a thrift store, and found a t-shirt with cassette tapes all over it. Even though my daughter scoffed, and told me no one would know what those things were, I wear it all the time, and it always makes me smile.

In my world, most things can be summed up with a well-placed book, movie or television quote.

I have learned the power of daily affirmations.

I exude awesomeness.

I rock a mean side ponytale when the time - and music - calls for it.

I am always willing to help others, but I find it hard to ask others to help me - I am working on that.

I take pictures of things that are yellow, because yellow = joy.

Sometimes I say "I don't do _____" when what I really mean is "I am afraid to do ____" - I am working on that.

I have cried billions of tears, but I am working to balance that with trillions of laughs.

I have a negative sense of direction - I balance it out by telling funny stories about the times I have gotten lost.

I am probably the loudest person you have ever met.

I love hard.

I have lucid dreams almost every night.

I am slightly obsessed with polka dots.

I believe in hope.
