On the Contrary

[violaconspiracy]

Introductions are difficult, because they are never true, not in the strictest sense of the word. For one thing, they are always biased. I can tell you what I believe about myself, but others may disagree. For another thing, introductions are always incomplete. I can tell you what I like, what I do, and where I live, but I could never write

I really like this.

That last line says so much.

Pleased to uh, know what you are not :)

Thanks! I think sometimes it's easier to define what you're not than to define what you are. Although that can change, too. I always demanded that I was NOT a teacher, and then I wound up teaching overseas for two years.

Mmmmmmm. Yes.

I'm glad you found my morsel of writing to be tasty.

Thanks!

I enjoyed this. and we seem to have a lot in common!

I make shopping lists all the time. Also to do lists.

You move around a lot? I still have wonderlust, although I am starting to feel like settling down a bit more...

When I was a kid we moved every few years because my grandparents liked to remodel houses and then flip them. Recently I lived overseas for a couple years and did a fair deal of traveling. I like to explore, even if it's just hiking trails in my own area.

I like all your not's! Especially staying in a chair too long. I look forward to your work

I think I get it from my grandma. She never liked to sit around a lot either.
