Suckas and Suckers in Hollywood
One thing is for sure, the weekends go way too fast. It was a beautiful one around here. The weather was lovely and we had plenty to do. Since our stay-cation this summer, I have become an even bigger fan of being a tourist in your own town. So, while we were at lunch on […] Read more…
What I’m Feeling…
It’s officially Fall, but no one told Southern California. I’m not complaining. As I sit here writing this post, it’s 87 degrees. I’m OK with that.

Hey Ms. Perfect! What are you hiding?
I’ve been told that I’m a perfectionist. I do like things to be a certain way. I’ll keep working on something until I have it just right. It might take me a little longer than I’d like to finish things because I’m busy tinkering. Ms. Perfect complex? I dunno. via What I know is that […] Read more…
My Cake Day!!
***This post was written on my birthday… 9.29.13 Today is my birthday. It doesn’t feel any different. I don’t feel any different. I know I’m older. I’m hoping I’m a little wiser too. I think I might be. After the whole hoopla surrounding my job, I hopped on a plane and went home. I headed […] Read more…
I Lost My Job – Now What?
If you happened to be a fan of the Style Network, you may have noticed something changed as of yesterday. Yesterday, our network went away to welcome a new network, Esquire. In a span of two weeks, my life has changed. Just like that. I have been making the commute to that office for almost ten […] Read more…
Ahem, You ROCK (those goals)!
I admit it, I’ve done it. I’ve set goals too big to wrap my arms around. Have you? While we work toward what we really want (the big Kahuna) things can seem like they’re moving in serious slow motion. With all that’s on your list of things to do, it can feel like you haven’t […] Read more…
