Star Wars Marathon Party

I’m waiting on the development of some film, so for the time being, I give you– Baby Darth Vader! Hello, young padawan . . . Over Martin Luther King, Jr. Day weekend, I hosted a Star Wars marathon watching party at my boyfriend’s house. Yes, that epic, epic space opera by George Lucas. You know […]

Dreaming of the Summer; Big Sur, California

No, those are not ants struggling in the water. Although I definitely thought they were when I first looked down the side of the cliff and saw little dots floating on the clear, crystalline blue Pacific Ocean. No, not ants at all. They’re surfers! As I clutch at my rapidly cooling coffee, my mind has […]

It’s a Beachin’ Life at Stinson Beach

Something about writing in the deep of the night elicits emotions and thoughts from the far recesses of my brain. It’s at these time that I feel most alone.

I prefer, instead, to jostle […]

From the end of September to the days leading up to Halloween, I call my friends out to have dinner and lunch and coffee. Narcissistic much? […]

Hello 2015!

I’m not much one for new year’s resolutions because I dislike the idea that resolutions generally happen on new year’s, and that I generally allow myself to fail them because trying to keep track of and succeed at so many resolutions is overwhelming (excuses, excuses, I know!). Instead, I choose to make my resolutions throughout […]
