Recently I was interviewed for an article, about me, that was posted on our company website. Me. I’ve only been there a year! Apparently they must think I’m very interesting (which I am, to me).

I was, of course, able to provide more dazzling insights into my suave and considered life – if you are really really bored you can read it here – but it struck me how much of me I didn’t mention.

Not one mention of my sparkling wit and sarcastic repartee, not a hint of my support of all people everywhere to be happy (I am still learning but consider myself an ally to all), nothing about my writing and my love of words, and very little about how much of a geek I truly am, yet it was still most definitely an article about me.

Like most personal websites, I have an About Me page that I add/edit now and then, and obviously this entire blog is about me, my life, my opinions, my decisions, my likes and dislikes and everything in between. I have no issue sharing all of this (in case you hadn’t noticed).

It is a little odd to read about oneself in an article like this though, but I take some solace that it does sound like me and overall I think it paints a fairly accurate picture of the version of myself I portray at work. Thankfully, being a bit older, my work self and my home self aren’t all that different these days so it’s nice to be working in a place where I can feel like that, as well as feeling actually valued.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m presuming there will be a few more eyes on this silly little blog so I’d better go give it a dusting!
