My thoughts on Life, Writing, Hollywood, Children, My Neighbors, Love & Growing Up
I am currently on a plane headed to the Midwest for Ann Arbor to celebrate my aunt and uncle’s 50th wedding anniversary. Yes, that's them - how cute are they? These two humans have chosen to stay together for 5 decades. Kinda blows your mind a little bit doesn’t it? I don’t think I like... 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 →
A few weeks ago I was forced to endure an hour long Uber ride to the sound of Christmas tunes. I repeat, AN HOUR. Of all the Ubers in Los Angeles, of course I would end up in the one who is all too excited to get his joy to the world on. Many of... Continue Reading →
Home sweet home. Home is such a vague term and yet it holds such a significant place in our hearts. While it technically means the place where a person lives, it is so much more than that. Home can be where you grew up, where your parents live, where you've raised your own family, where... Continue Reading →
Sundays are my favorite. In my world, Sunday is a day to reflect, watch football or Game of Thrones depending on the time of year, rejuvinate for the upcoming week and dabble into the occasional bottomless mimosa. Growing up, Sundays were like unofficial bonding days. After church, we would stop at the bakery on the... Continue Reading →
I am very fortunate in that my family is very close. We were each other's first friends...and first enemies. We have truly seen each other through it all: the good, the bad, the ugly. For the record, you don't know ugly until you see the butt-cut I rocked in the early 90s. Yikes. We keep... Continue Reading →
So apparently there was a march last weekend? Did you hear about it? No big deal, just 2.9 million Americans joined in the streets of over 650 cities across the country. Not to mention all of the people across the world who joined in unison from Tel Aviv to South Africa. Whether you supported it... Continue Reading →
I thought long and hard about what to focus on this week. And then I thought about it some more. And then I wrote a bunch of stuff I hated. And then I reread all of the things I didn't like thinking 'it couldn't have been THAT bad'. It was. Like garbage carcass crumbles bad. And... Continue Reading →
If you asked me to, I could come up with several reasons to cry at any given moment. I'm a basically a walking teardrop with a personality. Life, as I'm sure you've discovered, isn't all giggles and vacation. It's more like Star Wars minus the light sabers and space travel. It's about survival and defeating the... Continue Reading →
I moved to Cincinnati the summer before 7th grade. I learned very quickly that I would most likely be going to an all-girls Catholic High School. That was the "thing" there. It was in that moment I figured out we had actually moved to Hell. All girls? Let's be honest, half of the reason I... Continue Reading →
