Putting myself out there and such

I don't know if there is anything scarier than this for me.

I'm a perfectionist. I like to be in control. I like people and I want them to like me. 

But I like to keep it real so let's "keep it real."

Going official has been an overwhelming and exciting and scary experience. I'm putting myself out there for judgment. I'm putting my work and my name out there for judgment. I can only compare it to walking down the hall of your high school butt naked and then having to sit and listen to your classmates tell you how jiggly your butt is when you walk. :)

But seriously y'all..I'm not an English major, never have claimed to be one. I type pretty much exactly as I speak and if there were an emoticon for constantly moving your hands when talking, I would be inserting it all over this blog.

Bottom line: I love what I do and I'm excited about growing and learning and working with and sharing my life and my work with all of you. (And I know you're out there. Google analytics is my friend. So don't be afraid to say hi or leave a comment or 12.)

And since no post is complete without a picture, here's my Livi from yesterday.
