Your login attempt failed. This is probably because you are a moron. Or because you created your password one late night after watching a VH-1 marathon and chose something so cute and nostalgic like IWOULDDIE4U but now that the vodka has worn off and you’re trying to log in to this site you can’t remember [...]

I got out of my wonderful three-hour yoga workshop today and found…..a parking ticket on my car. If I thought the universe was trying to tell me something I’d be pretty confused. Or pissed off.

Peter and I were watching Scooby Doo in Where’s My Mummy? and saw Scooby and Shaggy padlock a “zombie” in a sarcophagus during a classic “run from the monster” scene.

I just realized I have exactly 100 messages “tagged for follow up”. Sometimes, I suck. You know why that statistic is particularly disturbing? I’m way better at email than I am at returning phone messages. If only I could send telepathic messages so people would know how much I am thinking about them and loving [...]

My complexion is dry, dry, dry as a [insert your own old, tired simile here]. So dry, in fact, that I have to special order gooey, dewy, moisturizers. If I try to put apply my foundation without these emollients, by 10 am my face looks as cracked as a Renaissance fresco. Apparently, all moisture in [...]
