Getting Over It
One week since the breakup. I’m still not thrilled about it, but I’m better. As long as I don’t think about him, see him, see anything that reminds of me of him, or have too much time to think, I’m fine. I gave myself one week to be miserable. I was allowed to eat whatever [...]
Indie Spirit Has Arrived
You’ve heard of the Sundance Festival, Cannes, and maybe even Tribeca. There are multiple film festivals throughout the world and across the country with themes ranging from race, gender, religion, and more. These festivals are a great way for young filmmakers to present their efforts to the movie theater going public.
What’s great about the smaller [...]
Beware the Penis Snatchers!
No, this is not a posting about sorority girls who can’t reign in their impulses. It’s actually closer to a posting on a modern day version of The Crucible. Apparently, in Kinshasa of the Democratic Republic of Congo, there are penis thieves. Yep. Men who have been accused of sorcery and stealing or shrinking penises of [...]
First Date Jitters
Tonight I have a blind Internet date. (A date where I don’t know the person, not a date with a man who is blind. In case you were wondering.) I hate these. There is always so much pressure and it’s just a huge risk. If you’ve been talking online or over the phone for a [...]
This Sucks
For the last three months I’ve been quasi-dating someone I’ve referred to here as Afghanistan or Mr. Inappropriate or a slew of other stupid pseudonyms. We have been friends for a long time. Three months ago (three months today, in fact) our friendship changed. We confessed to each other our feelings, however inconvenient they might [...]
Women’s Playwriting Festival – Opening Night!
It’s that time again. The day of opening night has arrived and I’m up to my eyeballs in panic. To be fair, the panic is not as bad as it has been in the past. And when I say “the past” I’m referring to Monday night. (There was a bad tech rehearsal and I don’t [...]
Looking for a Way to Waste Time?
This was sent to me and I thought I’d give it a whirl. It’s just a fun way to waste about 15 minutes of your time. Go for it!
YOU CAN ONLY TYPE ONE WORD!
Not as easy as you might think. It’s really hard to only use one word answers.
1. Where is your cell phone? purse
2. Happily married? nope
3. Your [...]
The Coolest Test Ever!
Ok, I know that I’ve shared a bunch of these little quizzes, but I just found this one and I think it’s fantastic! (Though I don’t know if I agree with my result.)
You Are a Colon
You are very orderly and fact driven.
You aren’t concerned much with theories or dreams… only what’s true or untrue.You are [...]
Playing Along
I have a handful of play-lists on my iPod, Bernice. They are my favorite feature of the entire iTunes concept. I love that I can create little themed musical entities.
Among my play-lists are the standards: Country Music, Showtunes, etc. by genre. Then there are the more specific lists such as Cool Music (anything I could [...]
Oh No He Didn’t!
I recently spent some time proofing a document for a friend. While I confess to missing a few minor details (I had really limited time and I never saw it before 9:00 pm so I was proofing half-asleep), I did a fair job of cleaning up mistakes, adding commas, and seeking out typos.
When the document [...]
