I'm not new here, but realize I've never posted a bio.

Why? Well, does this sound familiar: At first I didn't know how long I'd be here -- thought once that stroller purchase of over, I'd be outy, but then DD started solids, then we needed some new toys, I discovered the Lounge, etc.

Well, in case I haven't provided enough fodder for your fantasies :) over the months, here's me in a nutshell:

Name: Marisa
Sign: Aquarius
DD: Jazzy (8/5/04). She's super cool. Came with a spiky trendy-short haircut. Has eyes that sparkle and a smile that'll melt your heart. At 13 months she enjoys animals of all shapes and sizes, cuddling, long runs on the beach, raspberries, and signing "No more monkeys jumping on the bed" (shake finger).
Lives: Currently resides with ILs (Jazzy's paternal grandparents) in SoCal. Recently (6/05) moved from SF. Moving to Phoenix in 6/06. Originally from Long Island, NY.
Profession: Currently am "on vacation for the year in SoCal" (SAHM). Was earning a mediocre living in SF as a manager of a health clinic. Hope to get back to work one of these days, but am having fun on "vacation."
Hobbies: hiking, swimming, running, reading, watching Jazz-TV in 3D, amateur website building
Passions: women's and children's health activism
Pet peeves: bad table manners, snobs, when books suck but I waste time reading them anyway
Biggest fears: rodents of unusual size... um, any size really, cleaning, cooking, kidnappers
Race/Ethnicity: multiple
Marital status: married to my college sweetheart (awww....)
Little known facts: I have a mustache. (It's little known because I hide it like everyone else! :)), I hate squash.

Anyway... I've really enjoyed getting to know all of you!

edited because I typed Jazzy's DOB wrong!
