About Me

Hello, people of the internet! 

About me pages are soooo weird, and soooo out of my comfort zone.

See, here's the thing- I'm super introverted and socially awkward. Which is why blogging works for me- it gives me time to think of what I want to say, and how to say it, and to control exactly how I'm presented. Because oh yeah, I'm a control freak too.

I'm married to my high school sweetheart who is former military, I'm a mom which has been a more difficult and weirdly wonderful transition than I foresaw, I work a boring office job and am v.e.r.y slowly working on getting an MBA so I can get another boring office job that pays more money.

I am a Christian.

 I'm a liberal (although in general the world needs more moderation).

I'm a feminist and a book nerd and a person who deals with anxiety.

If you really want to get to know me, you may want to check out the following posts:

this one about my miscarriage, or this one about how I struggle with insecurity; this one about the surprise of motherhood, or

Anything else you're curious about...just ask!

PS- I refer to myself as Brittany Pines around the interwebz.  Nope, not my real name, but as a former milspouse I’m a fan of PERSEC.  This pen name spawns directly from my blog title, so I figure that keeps it easy to make the connection =] Hubby & Babycakes are also pen names.
