I did it! I'm officially techno suave!

Woo-hoo!

I've finally entered the blogger's domain! I know, I know, BIG deal . . . don't laugh too hard. It's a technological high jump for someone who disabled text messaging on her phone last year and hasn't owned a TV for almost a decade (plasma screen? say what??). I'm feeling pretty proud of myself, although not quite ready to tear apart a mother board or write programming for my new iPhone just yet. This genesis of my techno-genius is a direct result of my current writing/travel/adventure/labor of love project: Coyote Karma.

I'm hot on the trail of research for a new book. More on that to come . . . when we know each other a little better. ;-)

Let me explain my tag name. The nomiker "Drama Cheetah" comes from a nickname I gave my mom, who is the "Mama Cheetah." Her name is my loose (very loose) pronunciation of the Spanish word "Mamacita," and for some reason I thought it was a real riot to call her this when I was a teen (it must be spoken with a big emphasis on the "chee-" and a heavy accent on the "-tah", with plenty of playful intonation, like you're rolling a lychee nut around in a mouth full of razzleberry Jell-O while your friend tickles your tied up feet). No one would deny that I've got enough excitement, adventure, melancholy, misfortune, and small wonders in my life to stage my own Greek tragi-comedy, so the prefix "Drama" seemed an appropriate choice. I'm the firey one in the family, or so they say.

Still, make no mistake about it: coyotes are the animal of choice on this blog. Let the good times roll, or as my furry compadres would yelp, Yip yip yip, yeeeeooooowww!
