Let’s start with the basics.  My name is Erika.

I caught a fish once.

I’m female, 20-somethingish, married to the world’s most fantastic husband for long enough to appreciate him.  His name is Wes.  He enjoys making me laugh, saving the American Dream, and cheese.

Hands off, ladies. He's mine.

I graduated from college (with a real live diploma and everything!) about two years ago and started my career in Human Resources.  I hated it.  I hated my job, my boss, and pretty much everything about that whole time (except Wes and the puppy, of course).  That was when I started my blog.

I liked blogging so much I quit to do it full-time and now it’s my career.  I work for a great company (Bottle Your Brand, in case you’re interested) and they support my blogging habit wholeheartedly.  I’m their Content Queen, and I reign benevolently and with little to no pageantry.  Unless it’s my birthday.

Pageantry!

Having been married awhile, and mastered the fine art of Puppy Parenting (you can read all about our adventures in puppy parenting in the Doc Holliday archives), Wes and I are expecting our first little tiny miracle of chub and cuteness in February 2010.

For now his name is Squishy and he is most assuredly a boy.  A strong, healthy, beef-loving baby boy.
