Nancy’s Personality Profile — Just for Fun:

Sassy Sound Bite to Guide 2012:

• “Impossible things are happening every day.”  — The Fairy Godmother to Cinderella

High School Crowd

• I was the bookish, hard-working editor of my high school newspaper who did a lot more reporting about others than making news of my own.

Something Surprising…

• Sometimes, people who meet me in person for the first time after consulting with me by phone tell me it is a big surprise to see how tall I am.   One person said that she had this idea in her head that I was five foot two.  She said, “Why didn’t you tell me you were the Jolly Green Giant?”  I stand just under six feet tall in my bare feet.

Biggest Indulgence

• Driving my grocery cart down the aisles at Whole Foods and putting amazing and delicious things into my basket without looking at the price — a rare pleasure!

Weirdest Habit

• Sometimes, I get so absorbed in my work that it is 3 p.m. and I haven’t yet had lunch.  That’s why this “self care” thing needs to be a higher priority in 2012.

Workplace Perk

• Going to work wearing my pajamas and getting to play with my puppy between assignments.
