Allow Me to Introduce Myself

Hello and welcome to my blog. 

First let me say that writing this introduction feels a little like I’m preparing one of the profiles that I’ve set up on dating sites in the past.  (We’ll talk about that later!) The point is that this is nerve racking! 

When you set up a dating profile you want to be creative and unique but you don’t want to lie or write a tell-all novel.  There’s a thin line between airing all of your dirty laundry to complete strangers and captivating your potential suitors.  So they tell you to be descriptive about who you are and what you’re looking for but don’t overdo it.  They tell you to be intriguing but light and conversational.  They advise you to be sincere, open, and honest but don’t be too serious, don’t give a lecture of love.  Don’t come off as desperate or sounding like you’re in love with being in love.  Geesh!

Well, I’m not an expert at writing online dating profiles, nor am I an expert at writing blog introductions so I’ll just give it to you straight, no chaser and just be me!  Hell, I’m not trying to date you anyway.  That is unless you are a SINGLE, confident, honest, creative, down to earth, emotionally and otherwise available, dependable, affectionate, mentally balanced, financially stable, spiritually connected, good (or at least half-way decent) looking, 35-45 year old man!  Preferably an Aries, Gemini, Libra or Sagittarius.  Hey, I’m just sayin’! J

About me:  Fab-u-lous, feisty, 40 year old, single mother of two.  Grand-daughter, daughter, sister, auntie, niece, cousin, friend, etc.  Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA.  Black & Yellow all day, every day!  Aspiring author, poet, artist and future entrepreneur!  I AM… growing and evolving everyday so stay tuned!

What you can expect from me:  Stimulating, thought-provoking, diaogue.  My goal is to be edgy and provocative but no matter what the subject matter, I will always be open, respectful, honest.

What I’m looking for:  Your open, respectful, honest opinions, ideas and thoughts.  I don’t want anyone to feel like they have to sugar coat or censor themselves here.  With that said...please go to my Blog Disclaimer (it's entertaining but it's also very legal) and then do you.

Topics of Discussion:  A little bit of this and a little bit of that, plus anything and everything in between!  This blog is not for the faint at heart so if you have thin skin or a weak stomach, are easily offended or have low self-esteem...be careful or keep it movin'!

Rules of engagement:  The only thing I ask is that everyone be respectful of the views of others.  We won’t like everything everyone says and we WILL disagree.  But everyone is welcomed here!  Unless of course you are a narrow-minded, hypocritical, predatory, malicious, uncouth, hateful, bigoted, vindictive, judgmental, disrespectful, mean-spirited jackass!  And you know who you are.  Please don’t make me cut you!

They don’t call me Stiletto Dagger for nothing!  Smooches!
