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 was secretly hoping I would never have to write this. I've kept my story to myself. I've read all the stories, I've witnessed the speeches, I've seen all the posts and spent countless hours scrolling through the comments like a fly on the wall. I have stood in silence and relived my experience vicariously... Continue Reading →
We have a knack, as a society, to focus on the bad. I even catch myself doing it from time to time. I tend to focus on the things I don't have, the things I'm not good at, the parts I don't love about my body and what I haven't accomplished yet. Why am I... Continue Reading →
What do you want? Question of my life. I want to live in a castle but like one with good insulation and a giant library full of first editions and velvet couches. I want old maps that hold secrets of treasures unknown. I want a lazy river moat full of mermaids and waterfalls and potions... Continue Reading →
I couldn’t decide what to write about this week so I asked my brother and sister for suggestions. My first mistake. These were the responses I got: “People who ruin their own insults with grammatical errors” “Urban Meyer” – although very tempting, no. “Star Wars” “Blog about how cool nerds are” “Us” to which I...

Not all who wander are lost. J.R.R. Tolkien I was told recently that in this lifetime I'm supposed to find my home. To stay grounded and make roots. If that is the case, I'm 100% failing at life. My suitcase is always on standby. I can't seem to stay put. My life is a bit... Continue Reading →
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 →
Another trip around the sun in the books. I'm 35 now. That happened. That number seems so old to me but I also feel so disconnected from it. I don't really associate myself with the number my birthday represents. I think I stopped counting a decade ago. It doesn't say much about who I am... Continue Reading →
May it be marked in history that last night this girl had the craziest hankering for ravioli of all time. That's all I could think about. My current gluten and dairy free gotta-fit-into-that-bridesmaids-dress-diet does not allow Italian treats. OR any treats of any kind for that matter. [insert single teardrop down my cheek] Can't my... 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 →
