The Life and Style of a Mother Runner with Scoliosis
People said we were crazy; we said we're awesome. On January 9, a friend of mine and I had a conversation that went a little something like this... My friend: Are you busy MLK Day weekend? Me: *sigh*...nope. My friend: ...Want to go to Montréal? Me: YES. And so we did...10 days later. Snow and cold temperatures... Continue Reading →
First of all, three things: 1. I know it's already January 5, but I needed time to ruminate 2. New Years resolutions aren't my MO (that phrase has such a stigma...not a fan) 3. I forgot what this one should be...oops I was reminiscing over what I wrote last year at this time (in case... Continue Reading →
New York City has a way with words. It's a city that can be charming and charismatic one minute and then tell you to fuck off the next. Every time I set foot in Manhattan, it never fails to tell me something new, bring a smile to my face, and make me appreciate just being... Continue Reading →
My 2012 election day went a little something like this: November 6 8:24am — Wake up. Just living the cushy 10 to 6 life, like ya do. 9:42am — Cast my first vote as a New Jersey resident (gosh, that's weird to say). *avoided social media and news outlets as much as possible throughout the...

In the three years that I've been on the East Coast, the impending Frankenstorm that's supposed to clobber us later today is only the second hurricane/epic superstorm that I've ever experienced (yeah, I'm talking about you too, Irene).

BREAKING NEWS! In my quest to visit all 50 states before I turn 50, I hit my 20th state a few weeks ago: Kentucky. I know what you're thinking...why on earth would you choose to go to Kentucky for a weekend in the middle of August? To explore the bourbon trail, of course! (Isn't that everyone's...

I've been living in New Jersey for —stops to check imaginary watch on left wrist— nearly two years now, and this past Saturday was the first time I set foot on a beach. Fact. Princeton is not terribly far from the coast, but I never really felt the need to go so badly that it... Continue Reading →
Now it's time to say goodbye to all our company... After six and a half years of happy, joyous, rewarding, unnecessarily stressful, and OCD-inducing employment at the house of mouse down in sunny (and blazing hot) Orlando, Florida, my days as a WDW cast member officially came to an end last weekend. A new company-wide... Continue Reading →
