The Bermuda Triangle. This is not located in a tropical location. That is a myth. The Bermuda triangle is in Pasadena, CA and is in fact a very real place. Where cell phones are of no use, liquids are limited, and despair is constant due to the overwhelming feeling of being stranded. Help is not…

Before I left for Lake Havasu, my co-worker had some parting words on a survival tactic for my Labor Day weekend adventure: “Channel your inner Britney Spears. Embrace the trucker hat and ripped shorts. Walk into a bathroom with no shoes on.” I would say that the beginning of the trip started off similar to…
Read MoreI attended church this weekend. No, it was not on Sunday. It was on Friday night. In downtown Los Angeles. At the Staples Center. Mass was led by the patron saint of pop music, Taylor Swift. (Britney actually is, but T-Swift serves as the interim Saint until Britney decides she wants to come back). As…
Read MoreIf you watch “Intervention” (my occasional autobiography on Sundays), you know the scene: The subject is on the plane, heading to rehab and then there’s a sort of relief that comes over you? That’s how I felt (minus the rehab portion) Thursday morning. I was heading to Boston for a wedding, and inconveniently got sick…
Read MoreMonday is the new Sunday. My night ended with tears over an extremely rich piece of cake, and with stares of concern from my grandpa and cousin at a neighborhood restaurant. Public meltdowns are not my fave, but they happen to the best of us (TBT Britney and the umbrella). Usually, they occur as a result…
Read MoreI have some exciting news. I am a new mom. A godmother that is… No, not because I eat the Bay Cities sandwich on a weekly basis (shout out to UberEATS)! I am the godmom to a baby corgi named Glenda. Turns out, her name is really Glinda, but it’s so godmother of me to…
Read MoreYesterday, I drove back at 8:30am from the quintessential CA destination for the 4th- Orange County. As we drove through Long Beach, I presented the idea of stopping by the Aquarium of the Pacific, so I could throw myself into the shark tank. Sunday Scaries. I’ve referred to these as Sui Sundays for the past six…
Read MoreNo, that is not a typo. This was almost the theme of my Hawaiian party thanks to some DGAF teenagers and the San Andreas weather we’ve been having. The party was not good timing, but I could not adjust the date after I told my friends I was recreating an Islander/Jungle Party from our college…
Read MoreThe swan said it all. The swan and Pitbull music blasting at 3pm set the tone of our Memorial Day trip to Palm Desert. I envisioned my stay in Palm Springs to be calmer, quieter, than my past desert adventures- Coachella, Vegas, and Tucson. I can now add La Quinta to the list. I walked into the adult…
Read MoreIt was only poetic that my safest place turned on me this morning. As I ran out for work, I closed my closet door to find two giant pieces of wood falling towards me. If anyone could have seen the sight of me on the ground with the closet doors… It would have been award…
