So, once in awhile I’ll participate in a link-up.
Haha…ok, so I’m a little late on this one. Everyone else? Was doin’ the Tuesday 10 on TUESDAY. Novel idea. I, however, was…I don’t know, eating cake, chatting it up with girlfriends, and completely soaking up the night of freedom that Mae gave us when she chose to fall asleep at 6 pm. (FYI, I watched old episodes of Jericho and ate…ahem…more cake. Just thought you should know.)
😉
Yes, that’s what I was doing.
Hence the reason I am linking up on WEDNESDAY.
This one seemed interesting and didn’t require me to think too hard. All this sunshine and heat is drainin’ my brain! 😉
I stumbled onto this blog through one of my regular reads…she’s got some fun stuff goin’ on, and this? Well…it’s me. It’s about me. It could be considered indulgent. And you don’t have to read it if you don’t want to. 😉
I bring you…Ten Reasons I Love Being Me.
Hee hee. This could be fun. 
1. Being Mel. Like, actually Mel. I love that when my dear friend in Indo gave me the nickname, it stuck. It became part of my identity. I’m definitely a Mel, and I like it that way. And it has dramatically reduced the number of times I get called Melissa and Melanie instead of my actual name. (Bonus points if you know it!)
2. I, unashamedly, use far too many smiley faces.
3. I’ve managed to thrive through a lot of change.
4. I’m a really good gift-giver.
5. I’m sometimes-brave…like swinging on vines brave. Yeah.
6. I’m mommy to Mae and wife to Tobin. They’re pretty much the best.
7. I’m a loyal friend, probably to the point of annoying some of you. Sorry about that…thanks for lovin’ me anyway! 😉
8. I love haircuts, flip flops, purses, and coffee. (Like you didn’t know that last one.)
9. Though I definitely have a crazy side, my favorite TV shows are Little House on the Prairie and Road to Avonlea. Totally serious.
10. I heart adventures. I talk about things like wanting to go purse shopping in Turkey and do an overland safari in Kenya and no one looks at me weird ’cause they know it’s me.
