My suitcase is still sitting on my couch and I can't bring myself to unpack it because ALL I WANT TO DO IS LIVE IN A CASTLE AND DANCE. And quite honestly, I really don't think that's asking too much. They're all over Europe. No one is living in them. They're environmentally friendly. They're built... Continue Reading →
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... Continue Reading →
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 -... Continue Reading →
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. ... Continue Reading →
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... Continue Reading →
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 →
The Curve
I have officially fallen into the dark hole that is Project Runway. I have never been one particularly inclined towards fashion. My go-to shoe is a flip flop and I wear black jeans 360 days of the year. The other 5, you're lucky if I put pants on at all. I'm not known for being... 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... Continue Reading →
