Who are you and where did you come from?
For the purpose of this blog I will go by Cala. I have many different nicknames or titles, I assume there are other four letter words that I have been referred to as, but I digress….Simply put, I am a single mom with an amazing son, growing, living, laughing and loving in the sunny state of Florida. I grew up in New Orleans and have found my way here…with the help of many tiresome adventures. Stick around, and you may find out more.
Ever blogged before?
Actually, yes. Many times. Online, offline, published, some not. I prefer to keep what is left out of site…out of mind. Pun completely intended.
What brought you here?
Life. I lost my creative freedom at previous blogs and in my true nature, I am defined by what I create. If you have stumbled across this page by accident, welcome, don’t mind the spelling errors, I promise, I am not drunk, just not careful. If you have followed me here from somewhere else, Welcome back. It’s good to see you.
What do you do?
Survive. I am a mom to a wonderful son who never ceases to amaze me, or keep me quiet, defining my first role in life.
My second is in advertising. I stumbled across the profession one lonely afternoon in the form of a tiny “wanted” ad with two lines of copy and decided…what the heck.
Since then, I have learned more than I care to share and have found an industry that never sleeps, always changes and challenges me almost as much as my brooding toddler does…The good thing, is that I love surprises almost as I love learning. I am certain that I have chosen the right profession to pay my mortgage. It’s become a bit of a passion really.
Who does you hair?
Surprisingly…I do. I was blessed with this mop upon birth and have been awarded numerous prestigious awards that have kept it a-glowing. I credit genes and the blazing South Florida sun with the amazing color I have now. However, I owe 65% of my success to Aveda products and an amazing hair dresser that laughs as much as she oogles over the de-caffeinated soy lattes from Starbucks that I woo her with each visit.
How does one get on your blogroll?
Simply put…I need to know you. Those on my blogroll now, I adore, read daily and adore forever. Think you can fill that roll? Comment and leave a link.
What’s next?
The sky baby.
And spell check for idiots.
Ciao Bella,
~Cala.
