Costa Rica: Part IV: The Hook Brings You Back
February 25, 2019
“We need a hook,” Nick, my writing partner, has been saying to me for two years, “come up with a good hook.” When I took various writing classes in my college years, no one told me that writing would actually be the easy part. It’s original and good ideas that are the true gems and

Costa Rica: Mad Monkey Man (Part III)
February 16, 2019
“I’m crazy Felix.” “This is crazy Mitch and I’m loco Lori.” Crazy Felix laughs at this and shakes our hands. The mangrove tour is tucked away in the rain forest. A dilapidated house serves as the office and it looks more like a place you’d be taken if you were kidnapped than a tour. Two

Costa Rica: Ride On (Part II)
February 15, 2019
[Previously on Lori’s Blog: Lori and her brother left for their surf trip to Costa Rica, a trip to celebrate the “end of Lori’s 20’s.” On the second day, Lori got severe food poisoning but still went hiking in a rain forest where they saw a lot of wildlife and then Lori got sick again.]

Costa Rica: Sloths, Sickness, Surfing (Part I)
February 10, 2019
In the morning I manically finished a writing packet, bags packed (my bag had been packed almost two weeks in advance) at the door, anxious with excitement for my afternoon flight to Costa Rica. This is on Monday, February 4th. My brother and travel buddy, Mitch, would already be there, hours before me. Thank goodness

The Gate
February 4, 2019
There were three things I had to adjust to when I moved from my childhood home with my parents out on Long Island to my home today, a cozy apartment in the most North West corner of Queens, New York. The first was the steam heat noise. Anyone who’s lived in an old building is

Fly Away (Oh Glory!)
January 26, 2019
I’ll spare you details of some ongoing urology problems and my apparently shitty kidneys that aren’t good at their stupid job (you have one job, kidneys, ONE JOB!). There I was. Pants pulled down to my ankles having a conversation with my new urologist, telling him all about my family’s history of being hospitalized for

The Death’s, Three
January 19, 2019
Of course, as a loose rule, they say comedy comes in 3’s. And 3 can be a damned number for someone with OCD tendencies. But in that case it has nothing to do with the 3 at all. Furthermore, I’ve long heard it said that death comes in 3’s. The notion freaked me out as

Make Me A Real Girl
January 12, 2019
A good friend of mine’s ex-boyfriend used to say this to her: “You’re not a real person until you’re 30 years old.” Of course, in our 20’s, we were respectfully insulted by such a blanket statement. Hadn’t we been fully functioning, on our own, adults? Hadn’t we done more than scrape our knees at the

The Pencil
January 5, 2019
In middle school, the school would host these “holiday fairs” before our big Christmas break. These fairs basically sold a bunch of crap that kids spent money buying their parents the worst gifts with money that their parents gave them. It’s kind of an insidious plan when you think about it. Kids want to buy

The First Blog of 2019
January 1, 2019
First off, I have been writing this blog weekly for over 5 years, and if you continue to read it, I thank you. I hope I make you laugh. And when I make you sad, I hope I make you think. If you’re not a family member or an obsessive old boyfriend, I’m still rather
