I’m not okay with complacency.

And to wake up every morning and say to myself, “you’re living.”

Alec has been the greatest contributor into my more mature, more understanding and more loving self. He’s given me purpose, shown me new perspective and has been my mental savior through some of the toughest times of my life, and he’s done it with the most unyielding,...
Where I stand with the Invisible Children program
First off, I think that Joseph Kony is a disgusting person that should be condemned. What he’s doing is unacceptable and catastrophic. That being said, I believe he is less than 1% of the problem.

I don't think I'll ever be a white wine person.
I’m just too indulgent for that.

My techno music-loving neighbors just had a baby.
One would think that having a small child would calm the thudding techno music that reverberates throughout my apartment every night.
Nope. These guys just keep at it.
Failure teaches us that life is but a draft. A long rehearsal for a show that...

My bed consists of 600 thread count sheets, a down comforter, a Giraffe At Home throw, six pillows, and a sweater, in case I get cold. I would never make it in a third world country.

The ad agency I was contracting for decided to end my contract early to officially welcome me on board this week. :)

Kinda sorry.
Sorry, fellow followers, for my lack of original postings and babblings in the recent weeks.
When you spend 40+ hours a week writing as a profession, it’s hard to find the time and patience to do it for fun.

My dad and I opened up a restaurant together and it’s called Joanne. Watching my...

We now have a kegerator at work
I’m on my first and only cup of Rahr.
Then I’m going home to eat leftover pasta and continue working on a pitch.
Sorry that was so anticlimatic.
