So… off the bat, someone (Shep) wondered (harassed) why I’m blogging as Trix if this blog is about ME (my name isn’t really Trixie, it’s a nickname of mine… but that’s a whole other story).

Think of Clark Kent and Superman. Although the same person, each persona must exist in order for their respective jobs to get done. In fact, their survival depends on it.

OK, so my life isn’t in peril here. But as I mentioned in my “About Trix” section, I aim for this to be an uncensored outlet for myself. If my students (yes, I’m a teacher), their parents, my colleagues, etc. were to be able to find this blog, then I would have to be VERY careful what I say and how I say it. *cough cough* Boring.

My entire life is centered around this duality. There’s the professional… who aims to be a good role model. Then there’s the real me… who swears like a sailor and behaves accordingly. It’s hard to balance it out, but they are both an important part of me.

So… think of Trix as my Clark Kent. (Or am I her Clark Kent??)
