Hey wait, that's my clutch foot.
The first time I remember ever being asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up, Andrea?" I would have been about 3. I was buckled into the backseat of a car. (Maybe our Datsun?) I answered, "A race car driver!"

I think I broke my...thing that makes you friendly
I have spent years and years engaging with people, learning about them, listening to their stories, and answering their questions about my job no matter what the hour, the setting, or the context in which we're met.

Wrapping up this administration
I'm fairly certain that I should be lamenting my utter lack of will to sit and write about all the interesting things I think about lately in any digestible format outside of "bite sized." I was always running at a mile a minute before, but things have gone completely sideways ( Read more... ) -

I may in fact be feeling better, although the pressure and stress is worse. Figure that one out. -
As I live and breathe

Overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angsty, manic -- so happy and excited about the future and grateful for my awesome life that at times that I feel I could fly, then I'm near tears or in them, minutes later - but I'm here.
