Abnormali-T

I have wanted to start a blog for about the last six months and finally took the step. Sitting here thinking about what to call my blog forced me into a mini-soul searching session. I wanted the blog to reflect me, so I had to figure out me and put it into 10 characters or less. "What makes me, me?" was one of the questions I asked myself and the answer was "what I know." O.K. "What do I know?" At first I came back with the usual stuff-woman, wife, mother, sister, friend, etc then it hit me-I know abnormal. I have spent the last 20 years studying it. I have observed the most abnormal behaviors in my career as a forensic mental health professional, some I am able to explain, others I am unable to explain. Some abnormal I want to explain, others I don't want to explain. Nonetheless, it is what I know, thus it is a big part of what makes me, me. "Abnormal" is less than 10 characters. "Abnormality" is less than 10 characters. "T" is what my niece began calling me when she was 2 years old because she was unable to say "Teresa". "T" is what the people that love me the most call me. "Abnormali-T"-catchy.........
