Making Friends Monday

I've been inspired by two blogs, Christine Bryant's regular feature, Friendly Friday, and Sarah Eden's I Need Friends Friday. Mine, however, is different in two ways - first of all, it's not Friday, it's Monday. Can't accuse me of stealing the idea because, hey, it's completely different, right? And secondly, mine probably won't be a regular feature. It should be, but it won't be, because life is unpredictable and who can be regular about anything? So we'll just take what we can get and be glad of it.

My featured friend this go-round is Chilly. I forget exactly how I met Chilly. It was one of those things where you bump into someone, and you just like 'em, and before long, you feel like you always knew them. She just has this fun sense of humor and she always makes me smile.

When I e-mailed Chilly and asked her to share a little about herself, she said:

I've been blogging for about three years. I started it as a way to keep my sister, who was living in Illinois, up-to-date on my life, but now she lives in Utah so I keep my birth families (I'm adopted) who live in Idaho and Michigan up-to-date on how cute my sister's kids are. It was a lot cooler last year when I had my goal to travel at least once a month. Man, I miss those days! Fun, random things: I LOVE theatre, but the best part is going to the stage door after and meeting the performers. My favorites are Linda Eder and Rachel York. I could go see them perform in anything. I also love photography and have been doing a Photo A Day blog for over two years.

If you'd like to get to know someone fun and off-the-wall (but off-the-wall in a very respectful, nice sort of way) go meet Chilly. You'll be glad you did, but beware the snapping of the rubber bands ...
