Forgiveness
I saw this quote on The Happiness Project blog today: “Accepting oneself does not preclude an attempt to become better.” – Flannery O’Connor It hit home for me in a very sore place right now. Those of you who have read me for a while know that this year has been pretty hard for me, between [...]
Read more »In defense of food blogging
Last week there was an article in the New York Times, that pretty much everyone who as ever met me and seen me snap a photo of my daily nosh sent to me…it was announcing food blogging as a trend. Thanks NYT, but I think the word is out. Anyway, someone (not me) wrote about [...]
Read more »In Defense of a Friend
I hope she won’t mind me discussing this, but a friend and I had a conversation today about a writing assignment she just published that just seemed so ripe for further discussion. This particular friend writes about healthy, happy living, for a living. All in all, I consider this friend a source of constant inspiration. [...]

Do one thing a day that scares you. I have to say that that axiom has always rubbed me the wrong way. I for one am scared of clowns, amputation, and drowning. There is really no part of me that feels any need to confront those fears, especially on a daily basis. I was thinking [...]

The last thirteen days have been the worst of my life. First of all, thank you to all of you who reached out to me, worried and wondering where I’d disappeared to. On Thursday, September 17th, I got a call from my father at work. My mom had gone in for gall bladder removal that [...]

Okay, so I wrote this post for my CBS radio job, but it was censored. Apparently blogging about sex toys is not ideal for a pop music station. So this post won’t go to waste, I’m posting it here. Mainly because I thought it was funny and wanted at least someone to see it. This [...]

I tend to think that I’m pretty well in-tune with nutritional information, and with how that info relates to my body, but you learn something new everyday. I’ve been dealing with a lot of bloat and being a bit “backed-up” (sorry, I’m trying to make this as non-gross as possible) for a while. By awhile, [...]

Wow, my days are really knocking the crap out of me. Freelancing for three jobs is harder than I’d imagined. I’ve come home from work every day this week totally exhausted. It’s a feeling I haven’t really had in oh…eight months. Today was a bit hectic, I started the day out writing for multiple projects [...]

Do you know what the hardest part of job interviews are? When they ask you what your job goals are. I could say: “Oh, you know, to write a couple of books, star in a Broadway show, have a month off to travel every year.” That doesn’t exactly fly well though. Usually, I say something [...]
Read more »Obligatory Fat Acceptance Rant thanks to NY Times.
It seems to me that whenever the New York Times wants to piss people off they run an article on Fat Acceptance. Somehow Fat is a red flag when it comes to acceptance. Sure we can’t openly discriminate against races, religion, or socio-economic backgrounds, but by golly if you don’t happily reside in single digit [...]
