In an ideal world, the “About Me” page is supposed to contain a pithy, perfectly written tidbit meant to lure you deep into the archives of my blog until you become a devoted minion!
Reality sucks a duck, yo.
You’ll just have to make do with this:
My name is Loralee.
I was born in 1974.
I live in Utah*.
This is me.
Aren’t I smokin’?
Unfortunately, I would say that this is probably a more realistic portrait of the “True Me”.
Except in this photo I actually got my pudgy little butt to the gym, so scratch the sweat. You can leave the the IPOD, though. And fugly hair. And left over eye makeup.
Ug, that is just depressing to look at, so we are just going to pretend that I always look like this:
(You should see some of the looks I get when I go to the grocery store.)
Currently, I look like this.
Only it is a weirdly attractive photo. However, since I posted the fugliness that is me post work-out, I think you can handle cutting me a little slack.
That should do it for physical appearance.
What’s my personality like? We’ll just leave it at this for now.
As for talents and my “resume”: I blog, I’m a mom, and I am a former musical theater/opera singer that is versed in playing witches, alcoholics, whores, men, nuns, and women of ill repute.
I am super blessed as far as fiscally rewarding talents go, no?
If you can handle the fact that I dig Air Supply, my raging Diet Coke habit and the fact that I like CAPS! Italics!! Exclamation points!!!? and the occasional tacky-as-all-get-out emoticons despite knowing THEY ARE ALL WRITING NO-NO’S????!!!
We’ll be fine.

*To clear up the whole “Utah and Religion” topic that I get asked about all the time.
Yes, I am a Mormon. An inactive Mormon (Which means that I.don’t.go.to.church.and.am.rather.naughty.) so PLEASE DO NOT equate me as a representation of this religion in any way, ok?
I stopped going to church a few years ago when my son died, but I am still on the records as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. If I ever choose to practice a religion again, it will be that one, so please realize that while I have some big issues, I am also protective of it.
While I don’t mind answering questions (to the best of my ability) or discussing it, there is no need to write me and tell me that I worship a different Jesus. I know your heart is in the right place, but I had a very anti-Mormon grandmother, so I am well aware of the different arguments.
My personal opinion is that Jesus has enough love for us all.
Stumble it!
