About

Hi, I’m Carly. I like writing and have a creative side, but I don’t get the opportunity to express this side of myself very often. I also like sharing my thoughts on random topics, as silly and irrelevant as they may be. These things lead me to create my blog, where I can write about whatever is on my mind and share updates on my life. The purpose of this site is to allow me to do something I enjoy, while providing some entertainment along the way. Feel free to laugh with me and/or at me as you please.

I’ve listed some of the basics about myself below. I haven’t included much detail, as I find it impossible to effectively summarize my personality.

My Stats:

Age: 28

Birthplace: Alaska

Residence: Texas

Occupation: Accountant (No, I do not do taxes)

A Few Things I Enjoy:

People watching
Deep thinking
The sense of accomplishment achieved from being able to keep flowers alive for at least a week
Pretending to be a psychologist and telling people how to solve their problems
The feeling of sweet relief you get when leaving work on Friday afternoons

For further biographical information, see my first post entitled The Birth of a Blog.

Important Note: Having a sense of humor is a prerequisite for visiting my blog. Please don’t take anything I write too seriously.

Thanks for reading!

Feel free to share my site and/or posts with others, but please do not pass them off as your own. If you have any questions, you can email me at curlycarlyblog@gmail.com.

Anchorage?! you are kidding me. I lived there from 1977 to 1988. Maybe it was something in the air or water. We are sistahs from another mother.

  No way! I guess we were there at the same time, although I was just a kid at the time. Too funny!

I love the “feel” of your blog…it’s like running into an old friend. You should be applauded for writing “just because.” I too love the sense of accomplishment of keeping flowers alive after one week..doesn’t happen often, but I try!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and I look forward to reading your entries!

Love the “Occupation: Public Accountant (No, I do not do taxes)”. Same here! I hate that people assume that you are so busy during tax season.

  Oh good, someone to understand the accounting jokes!
  
  With the number of accountants out there who don’t do taxes, it’s amazing to me that everyone assumes we all do them. I think there should be a PSA to inform the public about that.

I’m not sure if I qualify on the humour criteria but I just wanted to drop a line to let you know it was a pleasure to stop by your blog.

I read a few posts and found myself nodding. Smiling, too.

Do keep the words flowing. I’m happy to join the growing ranks of your readers.

carly you are very curly and cute! wow texas…do you have that accent?

  Haha thanks! I don’t have the accent because I didn’t move here until later in childhood, but I would say the majority of my friends have some degree of it. It’s usually pretty entertaining.

I have just completed level 1 (Reading at least 2 months worth of entries) of “how to stalk a blog properly and creepily” on your blog. Please accept this certificate “Being Creeped Out Because This Person Is Reading Everything I Type” for being an unwilling participant. Please note level 2 will be commencing shortly.

  Congratulations! Graduating to Level 2 is quite a feat, especially if you’re like me and fall asleep 10 minutes into reading something. I hope I can continue to entertain, but I can’t promise I can provide another 2 months’ worth at a time. Thanks for reading!

Howdy Neighbor! I can tell just by this page alone that we will be good friends. The most important thing in the universe is a great sense of humor. I applaud your ability to keep flowers alive for a week…..I can’t usually keep them past 48 hrs, even with CPR. From Alaska huh? Quite a different geography from here in North Texas eh? I’m from Oregon and miss having the mountains and trees…..no people…those hills out near Mineral Wells are NOT mountains….. Have a great day Carly.

  Yes, Texas is very different from Alaska, and Oregon I’m sure. I could probably keep flowers alive a lot longer up there during the summer for sure.
  
  Thanks for stopping by and for following my blog. I look forward to keeping up with yours!
