She Used to be Mine
I had almost finished a post when I heard the song. My musical idol, Sara Bareilles, recently composed a new musical, "Waitress," (think stage adaptation of the movie with Keri Russell) and the first single from the musical was just released. "She Used to Be Mine” stopped … [Read more...]
What I Almost Forgot
Sometimes I think I must be part of some gigantic scavenger hunt. As if the next big reality series is going to be The Grand Medical Adventure. The contestants search for a diagnosis (bonus points for guidance and treatment), and leave as many clues as possible along the … [Read more...]

Do you ever have those moments where you stop, slap your hand to your forehead, and realize that you had the PERFECT Halloween costume, and you didn't even know it? (No? Hmm...maybe it's just me...awkward...) People. I was dressed up as a Jack-o-lantern on Halloween, and I … [Read more...]
