Allright. Woo. Breathe, 2-3-4. I’m back. After a nice n’long relaxing weekend with an infected eye and an awkward sunburn, I’m back to the routine. I won’t sugar coat the sitch, I was putting off writing on this– just because life has been so freakin’ free (and eek– I enjoyed it). But after two full [...]

Got Chutzpah?
Yahoo, it’s the Friday before a long, much-deserved weekend. I have been holed up in my apartment all week humoring my intensity (tisk tisk, I know) and putting my creativity to some good use (like I said more to come soon). Last night, I came up for air– kicked up the ol’ feet and had [...]

Mr. Competitive and Me
Confession time: I cheated…
at Scrabble last night when I was playing with Ryan. I hate cheaters– I really do. But I couldn’t help myself. Ryan went to go check the Sox score, and I just took a little peak at his letters and I kinda looked at the letters when I was picking them out [...]

Hot Spots
Okay, I know– I have been a huge slacker keeping up with posting, but it’s not like I’ve moved on. I’ve just added a few side projects (more to come, fingers crossed) to my daily routine, on top of work, on top of being in a relationship, on top of being a daughter, sister, friend, [...]

A How-to-Guide to be Intense
It’s no shocker, I am an intense young woman– anyone who knows me can attest to this. I came out of the womb intense. I have often been compared to my Dad: We were both stellar students and had very similar work ethics. I take it as a compliment.
I’ve accepted that this intensity is [...]

Sweet Mother Who Birthed Me
In spirit of Mother’s Day, I thought I’d devote a whole entry to the fabulosity of my Mom, Liz. She’s one of a kind, and she’s all mine (well I share her with my sisters). My Mom encompasses the three f’s: funny, fabulous, and oh-so fierce. She was never a strict Mom, but she made [...]

Block Island: My Island
Okay this may be an exaggeration, but Block Island is pretty damn close to perfection (to me at least). If you have never visited BI, then you truly can’t understand the island’s beauty and uniqueness. BI is located off the coast of Rhode Island, about a 40 minute ferry ride from Point Judith, RI. My [...]

Why Mom? Why?
Why did my Mom make Christina and I wear matching outfits? We weren’t twins. I’ve decided I am never going to make my kids wear matching outfits. I was always pink and Christina was always blue. And sometimes we were the same. My Mom had it all wrong– I should have been yellow and Christina [...]

Vegas and Me: Frenemies for Life
I recently went to Vegas for the first time with a group of friends to celebrate the big 2-5. Quarter century. Wow. Vegas was a blast, don’t get me wrong. It’s a surreal place. All the lights, noises, people– sensory overload. Bling-Bling. While in the City of Sin I learned a few things about myself [...]

Innocence and Boma, Enough Said
I couldn’t help myself, I was on a trip down memory lane when I came across a little art project Christina did about Boma– you know my one-of-a-kind, Goddess of grandmother. Woah, Boma as a Goddess, I like that. Anyways, my love for Boma is a special love that I share with my sisters. We [...]
