Hello, everyone! So I guess I should start by introducing myself. I’m CSlick, or just Slick if you prefer. I’m a 36 year old woman, married with two kids. I thought I’d give this whole blogging thing a try. Qualifications for writing a blog? None. Unless you count being a woman because we know all, right? Plus I like to talk. A lot. Another woman specialty.

Ok, a little background about me… my husband and I have been married for 12 years, and together for 19. We were high school sweethearts (awwwwww!). He’s an electrician and I’m a stay at home mom now. I used to have a career as a PR/Communications Coordinator for multiple regions of a real estate company. Man, I loved it! But I gave it all up to stay at home and raise the kids. Now, I’m seriously wondering what I was thinking. It’s a struggle to keep my last few brain cells alive.

We have a daughter who is 8, and a son who’s 5. I have to admit, we got lucky. Both kids are very intelligent, well behaved and well mannered. I sometimes wonder if they were switched at the hospital. They do keep me busy though. I may joke a lot about them, and some may find my sarcasm completely inappropriate when it comes to them. But I love them more than anything in this world. So please don’t be offended if I say crazy things about my kids or my husband. No, I wouldn’t REALLY love them more if they had muzzles. And I don’t REALLY want to divorce my husband just so I can have every other weekend off. Well, maybe that last one’s a little true. ~

We live in Ohio. I honestly don’t know why. There’s not much to do or see. The weather sucks 90% of the time. And “orange barrel season” has become an official season. Both my husband and I have lived here all of our lives. We know that better places to live exist. We’ve even seen pictures! But we’re still here. Maybe we just don’t know our way out.

Well, that’s it for now. I’m sure I’ll pick this up again when I get a bug up my ass to write. I look forward to sharing completely irrelevant and worthless information about my life with you.
