October 31, 2021
Some years ago, I befriended someone via comedy who’s wife was a choreographer for the hit show, “Hamilton.” So, I was able to get face value tickets (around $200) for the show at a time when it was near impossible to get a ticket for less than $500. I, however, was busy with gigs. And

These Goddamn Neighborhood Squirrels
October 21, 2021
These goddamn neighborhood squirrels. And generally, I like squirrels. They’re usually to themselves and act as a cute whimsical creature to any setting. But let me tell you about these Astoria squirrels. For reasons unknown, the stoop of the house I live in is the hot spot for squirrels to feast. Look at this: They

Strange Dreams In Strange Places
October 18, 2021
I’m no stranger to strange dreams. And I don’t know if it’s because of some sort of chemical imbalance, an overactive imagination or what, but I fail to remember the last I woke up without dreams from the night before distracting me in the morning, ever deciphering, “what does it mean? what does it mean?”

Mumbling In Portugal
October 6, 2021
I wouldn’t judge my first experience in Portugal based on the taxi ride from the airport to the hostel, because, if tourists judged New York solely on their time spent in cabs, New York would quickly be regarded as the worst city ever, and as much as I have a love/hate relationship with my home

Mostly Excited
October 3, 2021
It still unnerves some people when they learn a woman is going to be traveling solo. In many respects, I understand their concern. But when I venture out on my own it isn’t some great feminist stance that I don’t need anyone, let alone a man, it’s more that opportunity is available now, and sometimes

Expect Miracles
September 28, 2021
I don’t understand New York these days. But maybe that’s always been New York’s charm, the misunderstanding. The sign outside the bodega says no service without a mask. I, however, have arrived here by bicycle, am high, vaccinated and have no mask. There’s three people in the bodega at this point. The man behind the

You Always Think You Have More Time
September 15, 2021
With revealing as little detail as possible, as it appears the family would like this information tight lipped, a family member very near to me has been finally diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease after years of troubling and worsening symptoms. He has been a strong paternal figure in my life. Quite brilliant and bold. Had a

Barn
September 12, 2021
For the record, I don’t love playing ‘Barn.’ In fact, I don’t even like it. The only enjoyable part of playing ‘Barn’ for me is that my niece likes it so much. Charlotte, who is now three, is prone to her temper tantrums. And like many little ones these days, she has an unhealthy attachment

And That Might Mean I’d Have To Say Goodbye Too, Just For A Little While
September 1, 2021
I get this sinking feeling that COVID is a dress rehearsal for something much worse. That all the signs the beginning of the end started long ago. That we’re in the middle now. Smack down in the middle. And I do believe things will get better. As much as I believe things will get worse

Is It Contagious
August 25, 2021
The word “contagion” has never been so poisonous for the whole world. The mere sound of the word brings forth unpleasantness, a collective trauma. As the world became more fragile, I cannot deny that my mental state mirrored the general woe. Lori, lover of art that depicts the darkest hours and demons of humanity, couldn’t
