I have no idea what I'm doing

So my friend Hope and I were taking a walk last night (a miracle in of itself since we both have kids and husbands, both topics best left for another post) and we were talking about how even though we are both SAHMs ("stay-at-home moms" for all of you who don't read Parenting magazine) we don't want our identities wrapped up in being mothers. This led us to our next topic of "what do you want to be when you grow up." In my previous life I did a short stint as a highschool Spanish teacher, a position I don't wish to return to (once again, a topic that will probably show up in another post down the road). So that begs the question - what the hell do I want to do instead of teaching? Oprah always says "do what you love," well what if you love eating chocolate chip cookies? I can't make a career of eating chocolate chip cookies (or could I? hmm...). Seriously, I love to talk, so my secret fantasy is to have my own radio show but usually when I tell people this they burst into giggles, including myself. My friend Hope (who might be a genius) told me that I should create a blog. Of course I then replied with a very intelligent "huh?" So after much research (about 10 minutes worth I'd say) on the internet figuring out how to create a blog I decided to take her advice. So here I am world! And all you English professors out there who hate my prolific use of parentheses and incorrect punctuation can stuff it.
