I enjoy trashy television shows such as What Not to Wear and Bridalplasty. What, don't judge, you know you secretly like them too.
I hold a SciFi/Fantasy book club at my house.
I'm tall, 5'10".
My husband and I met in 2nd grade.
I used to play in a ska band.
Food is one of my best friends.
Yes, I've played D&D before (that's dungeons and dragons for all you non-nerds out there).
I'm a licensed special education teacher.
My daughter is named after a computer programer and a fictional character from the Wheel of Time series.
Diet Coke is my vise.
I'm caught in a vicious cycle of trying to grow my hair out and then cutting it all off.
There is currently no music on my iPod, only audiobooks.
A night in playing board/card games is my idea of a good time.
I don't have a facebook.
Why AwaitingAda? Well, when I was pregnant with Ada and I was finished with work, I was bored and getting really anxious for the baby to come. So, I decided to start a blog to occupy my neurotic brain, hence AwaitingAda.
Also, I like unicorns...
I have to ask, what character from WoT? My daughter is also named Ada (hubby is a programmer). She is Ada Flora. I also love SciFi/Fantasy books, only have audiobooks on my iphone (love me some audible) & I keep growing out my hair & cutting it off! :) (Last time was 18 inches.) So glad I stumbled onto your blog from pintrest.
ReplyDeleteAda's middle name is Elayne as in Elayne Trakand, go WoT! I love the sound of Ada Flora though, so sweet! Audible is totally one of the best inventions ever...who needs music when you have Michael Kramer and Kate Reading? I can't believe you cut off 18" on your hair, I wish mine was that long! Argh, I'm feeling the urge to cut it again, but I'm resisting! That's so weird that we've got so much in common, but I guess we're both just awesome!
DeleteStumbled upon your blog from Pinterest and had to read up on the title - I have a baby Ada, too! The old fashioned names are making a comeback, lol. ;)
ReplyDeleteHi, I am so new to this it is unreal, my youngest daughter (24) showed this to me and I have become absolutely addicted. I tell my self every night I am not going to stay up past 11:30 finding this new world. I'm glad as Lauren stated "stumbled upon you" I am 47 and have not 1 clue about blogs or anything, but I love your page. I will be following it often ;}
