Weekend Reflections: Don’t Be Cruel
This morning I dreamt I had a fight with my friend’s dad, and though looked like another friend’s dad it was understood he was the other friend’s dad. We were standing on the street and he was criticizing or scolding me for my lifestyle or something like that. Naturally, I stood my ground and kept

TBT: The Only Illusion That Counts
Here’s one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies: “Love’s an illusion.” “It’s the only illusion that counts, my friend.” “Says who?” “Anyone who’s ever been in love.” “Love sucks.” “So does your attitude.” Check out my Facebook page for more ThrowBack Thursday vids. If you love 80s R&B you’ll be in for a

Morning Wood: Josh Elliott Is The Best News Ever
Baby Boy is WORKING that camera. Everybody knows that beautiful people make even the worst news more bearable (unless of course that beautiful person is the cause of the bad news). Let’s be honest: nobody wants to watch homely-ass, hard-faced, aged, and balding news casters relay the current events. Remember when GMA beat The Today Show

Weekend Reflection: The Clandestine Love Affair
What is it about tragic love that makes these affairs and their ensuing stories so timeless and attractive to the masses? Have you ever been so consumed by your love for someone that it was literally all you could ever think about? Have you ever been in love so deep that every meaningful action you

Top 5: GATSBY Soundtrack
Got the Gatsby Soundtrack this weekend. It is everything. If you’re not listening to it I don’t know how I know you, or how you’re living. Here are my Top 5 picks: And two honorable mentions that I also really love:
One Direction Is Down To Fuck
Seriously. Can we deal with these lyrics? Every time I listen to One Direction I get all swept up in the catchy pop sounds, and find myself totally wanting to get into some heavy petting… Last year it was The Wanted and their date-rape anthem “Glad You Came” where in the chaps dared you to

Ill Balanced Frustration
I’m over it. I’m not sort of kind of tired of it. I’m finished and done with it. Sure, it feeds my ego to know that people are attracted to my light. Because of course I want to believe that there’s some goodness in me that is capable and happy to give and help and

Wednesday’s Child
There’s a childrens’ rhyme for remembering the days of the week which says “Wednesday’s child is full of woe.” I was born on a Wednesday. So boo. I woke up yesterday morning to a faceful of curtain when I accidentally yanked down the drapes beside my bed. When I stood up to put the rod

RadioACTIVE
Welcome to the new age. IMAGINE DRAGONS – RADIOACTIVE You know what I love? Other than the color pink? Cute things, teddy bears, muppets and puppets. Even more than that I like art, literature, and music which directly addresses and displays our natural super powers (as opposed to superficially hinting at sell-able ideas). So, yes, this song

Weekend Reflections: Loss Versus Release
So this is super dramatic for no reason… Over the weekend my external hard drive bit the dust. It was so under utilized and that’s the saddest part of its passing for me. Never mind the 2500 songs, or even the nine months of revisions that I had a week to send to print and

Reverberation
He had a quiet intensity. He spoke softly, but with a deep and low reverberation. I could feel his voice inside of me like the life of an engine spinning up to the steering wheel and into the driver’s palms. There was an obvious intelligence to his speech, and I listened patiently to his words,

Loving Aquarius
Aside from the fact that I am one, what I love most about Aquarius is that the sign exemplifies humanity and individuality at the same time. See, every Aquarius (like every human being) is unique and different. But at the same time we’re all basically the same. My sign is often characterized as the scientist

Manipulation.
“The world still is the same, you’ll never change it.” I’m not committed to that statement, but I do think sometimes you have to realize that people are who they are and they’re likely to stay true to their habits and responses. Changing people and exerting force, imposing your own will and agenda on others

Quick Reflections on My Life
I’m having a super great 2013 so far and I’m learning so much about myself and life. Fear is atrociously stupid. So you’re scared so what. You’re going to die one day anyway and depending on what you do or don’t believe none of this bs is going to matter anyway. And even before your

Mob Wives Season 3 Thoughts
I am not impressed . Okay, maybe I’m a little impressed with Renee. She made the very adult (and brave) decision to go to rehab and clean herself up. She bought a new house and committed to a new start, to ending the drama, and to doing the heavy lifting of personal work that being

Morning Wood: Ed Stoppard
Ed Stoppard Can Brand Me Any Time, Any Place Last week I watched a movie called Branded. I had no idea what this movie was about, and neither did my bestie, Edmond. He told me it had something to do with aliens – which it never actually revealed it did, but who knows. Edmond hadn’t
