Yes, you heard it here first: I'm a goober.
No, really, I am.
Goober, goofball, joker, whatever you want to call it, that's what I am.
And I'm owning that, because it's one of the things that makes me me. Authentically me.
We set up a post challenge over at Spring this week: What makes you authentically you? so here's my list including the good, the bad, and the ugly:
- I'm a goober (see above)
- I make myself laugh on a daily basis. Seriously, I crack myself up all the time.
- I would like to live in France someday.
- Or just inside an Anthropologie store.
