Version of Me

I would have been Sporty Spice.  That is said with the assumption that Drunk Spice wasn't an option.  I love sports.  I do.  I was raised on it.  It's one of the main ingredients to what binds my family together.  And now it's that time of year when I wear orange and black once a...

Absurdist

Question of the week:  What is sleep? Tell me all about it so I can live vicariously through you.  My brain is an energizer bunny.  I'll lie there for hours, trying to will myself to sleep, and she just won't quit.  Right when I think I'm finally dozing off, I begin wondering things like -...

TIN YEARS

Ladies, gentleman, toddlers and peasants - it is with great pleasure I share with you that today is my 10 year anniversary in LA.  One long and tumultuous decade ago I consumed way too much vodka, said goodbye to a city I love very much and boarded my one-way flight to LAX.  No place to live. ...

Love Will Find a Way

Yesterday was the 18th anniversary of 9/11.  18 years ago, I sat through my 8am class at Indiana University unaware of the horror happening in our country.  Those were the days when I channeled my undiagnosed A.D.D. through doodling, writing lyrics and literal daydreaming which, often times, morphed into sleeping through class.  Whoops.  I will...

Champagne Supernova

As I have a tendency to do from time to time, I went down a rabbit hole the other day.  I am Alice in Wonderland's third cousin, once removed, for sure.  This time it was watching movie trailers on youtube.  I mean, I really went for it.  All the way down I went.  I texted... Continue Reading →

Trickery

I started my most recent trip around the sun by losing an entire chunk of eyelashes.  I had no idea how important eyelashes were until half of mine were missing.  It's not a good look.  Maybe now I'll finally learn to wash my face before I go to bed.  (Probably not.)  Fun fact:  they grow...

Ms. DOUBTfire

I discovered this week that my trust issues reach as far as the sea.  Literally.  If you've never seen a woman pee in utter fear, go boating in the ocean with me.  I honestly had no idea how afraid of the ocean I was until that moment.  I was certain a shark was going to... Continue Reading →

Going Postal

A puppy took a nosedive into my eye socket.  This was two days ago and my eye has yet to recover.  I look like a carebear pirate.  Life is fun.  Sometimes it's not.  I've been doing a lot of research this week due to the shootings.  Did you know that the term 'going postal' refers...

Purple People Eater

The Purple People Eater is a song that was #1 on the Billboard pop charts for 6 days in 1958.  It's a song about a one-eyed one-horned, flying purple people eater who comes to Earth to join a rock band.  And that is my inspiration behind the purple hair.  I'm kidding.  Not about the purple hair...

chill out

Back on the Whole30 (minus the drinking for obvious genetic reasons) which is fun if you like the feeling of never being satisfied.  But the real highlight of my week was when I couldn't remember if I'd taken my biotin pill or not and then asked myself if I should purchase a pill box.  Good...
