Hi, I’m Misangela. You can find me pretty much anywhere on the intertubes. I’m not famous or anything, just prolific and long lived. My blog has been up since 1999, so it gets indexed regularly.
I live in Atlanta GA; Tucker, specifically. I’ve been in ATL since 1988. Prior to Tucker (July 2014), I lived in Decatur for about 25 years. I was raised in Knoxville TN. Um, yah, nothing more to say about that cesspool. :-/ I’ve been in Atlanta longer than I was in E TN, so I consider myself an Atlantan.
My biggest endeavor (to date) is getting a vertical sleeve gastrectomy. It took me several years to work up the courage but I finally did it and it was one of the best decisions of my life aside from marrying my best friend. :) My surgery was May 16, 2016, in Tijuana Mexico. It was an amazing experience and the care was exemplary. It cost me about $4k plus airfare and they took care of EVERYTHING. The accommodations are for TWO, also. If you have ever considered VSG, I am happy to refer you to my team. They are AMAZING. Four days can change your life forever! There is a section of this blog now dedicated to all things bariatric, including recipes, supplement guides and general advice. I also have a vlog on youtube here.
I used to be a Mac support tech, graphic designer and web designer. Well, I guess I still do graphics and web design, but just for myself and a coupla clients. Lately (June 2020) I’ve gotten more web work. I am the bookkeeper/office manager/social media manager for a local restaurant – a thing I’ve done for about 20 years. I am the wrangler of IndigoDragon Studios, Player One Arcade Services and Boneless Cat Designs. I wrangle my husband Nick and his various projects. Nick is a pre-press graphic designer, IT manager and also an awesome vintage arcade refurber. My business card says ‘wrangler’ for a reason!
I used to fabricate jewelry – mostly earrings, but I did a little Precious Metal Clay, which is pure silver. store, Boneless Cat Designs, over at my Etsy. The shop is there, but I’ve not had listings in forever.
I run social media for our projects as well as for clients. Our FB pages are: IndigoDragon Studios, Think Weasel and Player One Arcade.
I did catering for about a year, but Covid killed that. It’s a shame, I REALLY enjoy catering!
I don’t write like I used to, but there are occasional posts. I do keep my Reading List up to date, tho!
