A Public Diary? (oops, at first I typed "pubic")

Hello, friends.  I'm excited and a little weirded out to be writing like this.  I feel so self-indulgent making what is essentially a public diary.  Nonetheless, my plan is to write regularly about lots of things--motherhood, fitness, things that I think are incredibly cool/awful... who knows?  Heck, I might even make VIDEOS!!!  Also, I stole this blog's name from someone I knew in college.  My middle name is Pearl and my maiden name is King, but he thought of it first.

A little about me and my life:
My son is four months old and I get to stay home with him during the day.  He's really into his feet.  In the evenings I tutor high school students so they can get high scores on their ACT.   My big goal in life right now is to be more vulnerable to the right people.  My husband writes fiction and teaches high school literature.  Our dog Max (a weiner dog) chews apart all of my son's favorite things.

Thanks for reading!
