Jeff’s Funeral
May 30, 2022
It was Jeff’s birthday the other day. Or would have been. It still feels to talk about him in past tense. Jeff is my best friend’s husband, whom I was once a nanny for, who died late last year suddenly of cancer, leaving behind a wife and four teenagers. It still feels awful. It still

Cosmic Coincidence
May 26, 2022
Do you believe in fate? Probably for most of my twenties, I would have given you a hard no. I heard a quote once that said “fate is just your decisions plus time.” Which I still mostly believe. But the older I get, the more I see things, often small, that make no sense to

What I Remember About My Communion
May 9, 2022
Not much, to be honest. I used to have a bit about my first Holy Communion that ended with the priest going “the body of Christ” and me freezing up with nerves and saying, “may the force be with you.” I don’t, however, remember how the beginning of the joke went, but it did well

32 No More
May 9, 2022
It’s funny, because when I was a kid, I predicted my 30s were going to be the decade of my life. It was off to slow start, mostly because within my 30th year, COVID happened which hiccuped all our lives, sent me far off the rails, and there were times, I admit, I thought the

COVID, The Hospital & Things Being Okay
May 2, 2022
Hello, there! Did you miss me? I was out of commission for a few days with COVID plus a sinus infection accompanied with an ear infection. The ear infection was the most troublesome. So much so, I’m starting electrode acupuncture in hopes to remedy my chronic inner ear problems because I am done. I barely

FOMO and Cartoon Pajamas
April 21, 2022
Alas, readers, I write from my sickly bed. Tired and annoyed. Anxious and also tired. Did I say tired? God, what are other words for tired? If only I wasn’t so fatigued. Yes, on Easter Sunday my throat was bothering me after working a casino over the weekend. This often happens to me in casinos,

Caring Comics
April 11, 2022
Since comedians have been heavily in the limelight since “the slap” and there’s been ongoing debates on who was right or who was wrong (Will Smith was wrong, it isn’t even a debate, fools), as a person in the heart of comedy in New York, I wanted to share some moments that I’ve had with

Women Writers Writing
April 8, 2022
A few years ago, I decided I would celebrate my 30th birthday with treating myself to a trip. Costa Rica was a place I had always dreamed of visiting, especially as a surfer. Doing a surf trip meant it would be easy to convince my best bro and actual brother, Mitch, to join me. Costa

All The Things I Love About Little You
April 3, 2022
Oh my little Blaise. You little, perfect wonder. I heard your first cries as you were being born because I accidentally walked in on your home birth (ask your mom and dad about this one day for a laugh). I just couldn’t wait to see your face. Your beautiful tiny face. And what a face

The “Batty” Mobile
March 23, 2022
I’m a pretty firm believer that we don’t own things, our things own us. So allow me to introduce you to my new owner: It’s Batty. The “Batty” Mobile. And she’s dead sexy!!! I’m in love with her, I’m pretty sure. My family has a car thing. I don’t know why. We just like cars
