About Me

I'm so glad, and a little confused, that you're interested enough in who I am to click the about me link. That's nice, thanks. I'm just gonna steal most the following bit from my first post, because it pretty much sums me up... 

My real name isn't actually Mae, but it's what a lot of friends call me. This is Mae...

Okay, now that that's out of the way... I live in Utah, but am planning an escape as soon as it's possible to actually get out. I'm mid-40s and childfree, but have two sweet furbabies. I'm more than 20 years married to a great guy. It's me and him against the world.

I'm liberal, suffer from depression, anxiety, agoraphobia, and struggle to get through the day most of the time. I regularly feel like the sky is falling. I spend a lot of time wool gathering and wishing I was anywhere but here. Most days I feel like the people around me are upset with me, which I acknowledge is completely irrational. I am planning to run far, far away from this place as soon as I can swing it. I am also fat and I'm fine with it... most of the time. The rest of the time I wear cardigans to cover my arms and black because it's slimming.

I'm an introvert, my favorite food is mac and cheese, and my hobbies include staying home, reading, spending time with my little family, diamond painting, and gaming. I'm not a joiner, at all, and I'm the worst person on earth to make plans with because, just being honest here, I flake. It's not my best trait, but it's a thing and I don't care to work on it. It's who I am.

I work in education as both an adjunct comp instructor at a community college and a full-time instructional designer at a technical college. My heart will always be in education and I love working in the community college and technical college systems. My only regret is that my full-time job doesn't permit working at home.

That's it. You might just now know everything there is to know about me.
