About
Ah, the dreaded “About Me” section. Well, fine. Here we go:
- My name is Spring. Yes, really.
- This blog’s name is derived from a child nickname.
- I’m married to the most awesome man ever. His name is Jim. He has his own blogs here and here.
- Jim and I have three cats that demand (rightly so) our worship. We try our best.
- I like to say I “err on the side of geeky” without being an actual full-blown geek. (Certain quizzes on the Internet, however, will tell you otherwise.)
- We live in southern Illinois. I really love it here.
- I’ve also lived in northern Illinois, central Illinois, and the Washington D.C. area.
- I was both mugged and robbed at gunpoint while I lived in D.C. True story.
- I’ve also found that I handle scary situations surprisingly well.
- I have a Bachelor’s in English, a minor in Psychology, and an Associate’s Degree in Computer Information Systems, specializing in computer programming.
- Suffice it to say, I like to learn and have broken many curves in college.
- I’m also left-handed. I think that’s totally relevant!
- I want to eventually go back to get my Master’s, but I really like the job I have now. Honestly, how many people can say that? So you see why I’m not in a rush.
- Other stuff I like: Knitting, crocheting, writing, reading, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (I’m a longtime fan!), cooking, cats–but not cooking cats, ha–and video games. Unsurprisingly, all this stuff comes up a lot in my blog.
