Melissa_B. : MyBlogHer Profile

Hey there I'm  Melissa and I am new to the great big world of the blogosphere. I decided to join in to reach out and meet new people and hopefully friends. I'm in my early 30's and a newly wed with a 3 yr old son. I live in the what can sometimes be described as a judgement toxic suburb of Austin, TX. So in an effort to find a wider community of women I am reaching out into cyber space. I love animals (especially big dogs, aka Mastiff's), still enjoy getting dressed up to have a night on the town, I have a weakness for cheesy TV shows (what I call crack TV), and Orange Dream Machine smoothies from Jumba Juice. I first met and became friends with my husband in the 7th grade and our 3 yr old has better fashion sense then my husband does sometimes. I love books, I'm a poli. sci. nerd, and although I love the beach I adamantly avoid getting a tan for fear of premature aging (sunblock is your friend). And just in case you hadn't guessed yet I'm a fairly high energy quirky kinda girl.
