My thoughts on Life, Writing, Hollywood, Children, My Neighbors, Love & Growing Up
I had the absolute honor of standing by one of my best friends this past weekend as she said I DO to the man she met in a lazy river in Vegas. Talk about finding love in a hopeless place. The ceremony was almost as beautiful as the bride. She was a total smokeshow. It... Continue Reading →
I'm a daydreamer and a night thinker. I always have been. I sleep with one eye open, which might be because I have FOMO or maybe because I have PTSD from when my apartment was broken into while I was sleeping but most definitely because my OFF switch has been disabled. I may look dormant,... Continue Reading →
Songs take me back to particular moments or windows in my life. Music is transcendent like that. Growing up, after morning swim practice in the summertime, we would go to my friend's house and listen to Jagged Little Pill on repeat the rest of the day. That album was very much the soundtrack of my... Continue Reading →
I don't know about you, but I need a reason to smile. With everything going on in the world around me, I'm not sure whether to put together a survival kit and start a revolution or to follow my heart to Australia and make it official. What on earth is happening? Where am I? It's... Continue Reading →
I have had a whirlwind of a week. Did a little brunching, did a little wine tasting, did a little line dancing, did a little celebrating, did a little sun tanning in 110 degree weather. Also, a bartender tried to kill me. He failed...but A for effort. This time of year is a bit crazy... Continue Reading →
I was listening to the radio when I heard the lyrics "When is the last time you did something for the first time?" And just to be clear, yes, I still listen to the radio. It's one of the old school things I cling onto. I also mail handwritten thank you notes, listen to cassette... Continue Reading →
Blasts from the past. There really is now way of avoiding it when you meet up with old friends, which is what I did the other day. Names came up that I haven't thought about in years. Old roommates, apartments, past relationships and jobs - you name it, we talked about it. It seemed like... Continue Reading →
I have been told several times in the last few months that I need to clean out my closet. Both literally and figuratively. So now I do this thing where I open it, stare at it and then close it again. 'For another day' I tell myself. That's basically my M.O. when it comes to... Continue Reading →
I spent most of last year dealing with a breakup. Saying that out loud is equal parts embarrassing and relieving. Embarrassing because it's like making plans with a friend a few months in advance and all of a sudden that person is like "I don't want to do THAT! I mean I do, but not... Continue Reading →
My attempt at a dry January ended this week and while some of you may look at that as a failure, I'm actually quite impressed with myself. Let's be honest, this is the longest I've gone without drinking since Dawson's Creek was on the air. This was a pretty big deal for me considering the... Continue Reading →
