I picked a fight with a co-worker two weeks ago. I was in the office kitchen making a peanut butter and banana sandwich when I overheard the following exchange.

Man: "Shoot! There is no more water in the bubbler."

Woman: "Oh no!"

Man: "I...

I joined Facebook this week.

I also worked a freelance copywriting job during the day and performed at night. I produced a show in Boston. I promoted and prepared for a big show I am producing next week in New York. I avoided finishing a video project that is...

As I was walking to the subway this morning, I heard a man call out "Yo! Can I get five minutes wit you?"

He was at least 25 years old, if not older. He wore ridiculously baggy jeans, an over-sized leather Jets bomber jacket (even though it was 60 degrees...

In case you hadn't heard Owen Wilson is sad and tried to kill himself.

This ignited a slew of gossip magazine and entertainment news shows to do some very special reports on the growing number famous folks who are "depressed."

They explained that the high pressures of Hollywood combined...

When email killed the telephone part of me was thrilled. I mean, how fantastic to be able BCC the masses with just a few clicks? To Evite your 400 closest pals to your party? To type rather than talk your way out of awkward conversations?

However the other part...

My sincerest apologies for not writing last week. I was busy working on a few projects. I also got caught up in spending one of the last few weeks of summer enjoying the sun (as most of you will agree, sitting in front of the ocean sure beats sitting in...

Dear World Wide Web,

I love/hate you. I am jealous that I will never know nearly as much as you, but I also don't believe everything you say. You simultaneously connect people through faster communication and disconnect people by minimizing the need for actual human contact. Without you I...

Once upon a time, I was a glam rock girl.

Even though all the other chicks at my suburban upper-white middle class junior high wore Benetton rugby's with khakis and stark white Keds, I insisted on sporting a denim jacket with white pleather tassels and an army of pins representing...

As a young, broke, cute clothes-hoarding gal it is no surprise I was an avid Forever 21 customer. There is something so thrilling yet soothing about riffling my way through racks upon racks of poorly-made dresses and pants while obnoxious remixes of pop music blasts itself through my already overly-stimulated...

As if 45 minutes of cardio in 90 degree weather wasn't punishment enough for the copious amounts of booze I consumed this past weekend, I decided to watch Inside Edition while on the Crosstrainer.

The gym is the only place I indulge in trashy TV or magazines, not because...

I recently finished a four month in-house freelance copy writing gig. As a freelancer who works pretty autonomously all day I have successfully steered clear from getting to know most of my co-workers. I am sure they are all wonderful people but knowing my time here is temporary I would...

I am one of those people who linger at coffee shops writing on my laptop. It feels less lonely that locking myself in my apartment. The distraction of TV, cleaning, and my bed are more of a risk than whatever lurks in a cafe. Environmental noise serves as background music...

I wanted to sound smart in the title of this post so I visited thesaurus.com synonyms for the word "jealousy" and "querulousness" caught my eye. I had never used it before and using new words offers me a brief yet magical moment of intelligence. Truth is, my...
