20 Random Facts About Myself

As I mentioned, I’m working on a fun project called 30 Things My Kids Should Know About Me (in addition to my Pregnancy Diaries).

I didn’t realize the coming up with 20 random facts about myself would be such a brain teaser.

2. Before deciding on journalism, I was planning on becoming a lawyer.
3. I’ve kept a journal since elementary school.

5. I don’t drink or smoke (ever!)
6.  I have a belly ring that I’m trying desperately to hold on to. I know it’s sounds crazy. But, it’s very symbolic.
