Confession Wednesday: It's All About Me!

Confession Wednesday Button
Greetings and salutations, SITStas!



I am SO excited that TODAY is my SITS day! Back when I first signed up, they said it would be MONTHS until my turn to be featured, and they weren't kidding. But, seriously, it was worth the wait. I have "met" so many amazing bloggers this year thanks to the awesome and lovely Heather and Tiffany. And I know there are plenty more out there that I haven't discovered yet.

(You're reading my blog and you still don't know what SITS is?? Just go here and get yourself signed up. Trust me.)

Anyway, I'm so glad to have you all here. A little bit about me...

I am a single 30-something that lives within walking distance of two of my very favorite places: Disneyland and Angels Stadium. I have two roommates, two brothers, a sister, a sister-in-law, and the cutest nephew on the face of the planet. I read a lot, write a lot, watch way too much TV, far too many movies, and am completely obsessed with Major League Baseball. My teams are the LA Angels and whoever is playing against the Yankees.

This blog really is a peek into my life. I'll write about anything from the latest books, movies and concerts to going on vacation or a night out with the girls.

Here are a couple of posts that will give you a good idea of what I'm all about:

Letters to My Fellow Commuters
Not Me! Monday: Girls' Night Out
"There's No Crying in Baseball!"

You might be wondering what this Confession Wednesday thing is all about. Well, it's a little something I started awhile back. Every Wednesday we've got a different theme. You know, stuff like "Facebook Confessions" and "Times I Thought I Was Going to Die." Anyway, seeing as it's Wednesday and all, I figured I'd keep it going. This week's theme is "It's All About Me." Go ahead. 'Fess up. What brings out the Me Me Me in you? Grab the button up above, link up down below, and join in the fun!

And seriously, thank you SO much for stopping by.

And MAJOR thanks to Heather and Tiffany for starting up one of the best blogging communities on the web!

Congratulations on your SITS day. You are so right, SITS is awesome. And I will forgive you for hating the Yankees because they live their life in a Pantene commercial- People hate on them because they are beautiful, oh, and rich and of course because they are winners. ;)

Congratulations! You have a lovely blog. I like how you added stuff that you're reading, watching etc on your sidebar. Very interesting. I haven't read "The Shack" yet and not sure I'm going to! Although I probably should...I heard it's very controversial.

Have a great day!

Annie @ astonesthrowfrominsanity said...

Ok- So last Wednesday I did a confession Wednesday, and I had never even heard about your Confession Wednesday.
