About

 

Karla Olson is my name; Kj to some, Ms O to others, Jane Girl to my parents, Food Lady to my cats, Sweetie to my husband…

Teacher. Cat freak. Fan of tie-dye and Birks. Believes in laughter, irony, the power of ice cream, and topography. Traveler of doctors’ offices and hospitals. Will read Gaiman for food. Wants to be Laura Roslin when she grows up.

For the left-brained among us, I’m a high school English teacher, former Mock Trial coach, former Speech coach, living and teaching in East Central Minnesota.  I currently teach in a residential treatment center for teenaged boys, and it’s challenging plus the best job I’ve ever had!

I’m married, I have a houseful of cats, I love to play chess and Trivial Pursuit™ and just about any card game (known or unknown), I love politics and debate and social commentary,  mystery novels (literate) and all types of music (except modern Country) and literature (except for Victorian). I love the Twins and I’m learning about International futbol  (Go Loons!).I would travel non-stop if I had the money. Oh, and I try to knit and garden.

As of March 2020 (when I returned here after a five-year hiatus in blogging…), I’ve had three cancers in four years, plus a ridiculously long list of other medical conditions.  I’m writing a book.  Because it’s ridiculous, as mentioned.
