Resurrection

Well, I have been on blog sabbatical for tooooo long.  Well, the Cre8tiv Mind is back and ready to blog, blog, blog.  So much has happened since my last entry…including the birth of my baby girl.   I have resigned from Atlanta Public Schools and ventured out down a path to truly find my incredible and push it to the limit!

I am currently writing articles for Hotchalk.com.  Hotchalk is launching a new digital magazine before NECC ‘08 and I am so excited to be a part of this inaugural launch!  Thanks to Hotchalk for choosing me to be a part of this exciting moment.

8 Random Facts about CATHLEEN RENEE RICHARDSON

1. I have truly found my soulmate, my husband…the Big Pixel!
2. I covered the O.J. Simpson trial when I was 21 years old (while in college at Clark Atlanta University)! I was the first paid CBS intern and I was stationed at the CBS Bureau in Los Angeles. I was a court reporter, a juror stake-outer, a research analyst on juror behaviors and identities (long story) and much more! It was “the” most fascinating summer of my life.
3. I learned how to type 90 wpm when I was 8 years old. My father made me take Typing classes at the local college. When I was 9 he started his own business and during the summer I was his receptionist! Our company was called, Martex…Mar for Martin (my maiden name and Tex for Texas, where I grew up).
4. My mother is a dietitian and she is the best cook in the world! She had her own catering company when I was a child and she made me (just me) pancakes every Saturday in the shape of bunny rabbits…I will never forget how special that made me feel.
5. I wanted to be Oprah Winfrey when I was in 6th grade up until I actually started working at a television station and realized how dog-eat-dog journalism could be. In my 7th and 8th grade yearbooks from William Hugh Byrd Middle School in Duncanville, Texas everyone signed my yearbook…Dear Oprah. In the 8th grade book, Oprah actually appears next to my name ….printed!
6. My son’s birthday is on the same day as two people that share his first and middle name…by coincidence. Mikhail Mikhail Gorbachev and Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seus)!
7. I was in Speech and Debate when I was in high school (South Grand Prairie High School in Grand Prairie, Texas). I competed in Prose, Poetry, Duets, Oratory, Impromptu and Extemporaneous Speaking. I was really pretty good. My favorite poems to use at competition were: Victor by W.H. Auden and Lady Lazarus by Sylvia Plath. The latter won me 2nd place at the state UIL competition (a big deal to us little ole Texans)!
8. My father (a computer guru himself) gave me my first computer when I was 7 years old. I searched it on the internet and this is what I found…this is too funny to me!

I know this is supposed to be about ME and I talked about my husband, mom, son, and father…but I consider them a part of me
