Let 'em roll! 2019 was really freaking hard, you guys. This year slowly drained my energy to the point where by November, I was having a tough time getting out of bed every day. Marriage is not easy and I'm actually not even really sure I'm cut out for it. I didn't have the creative …

2018 Credits
Let 'em roll!This year was kind of all over the place, but ended up balanced. It was full of both unprecedented happiness and frustration. Many of my goals saw success and the frustrations illuminated new areas for me to work on. And I'm setting up my 2019 to tackle those things head on. But let's …
Happy Freak Week!
It's my favorite time of year for a lot of reasons, but one of the coolest (and tastiest) is Coney Island Brewery's 3rd annual Freak Week. The brewery creates some strange and unusual concoctions in small exclusive to this event, and then tours them around with city with some tap takeovers. So not only do …
Putting It Into the Universe
It's looking like we'll be able to move into a new place next year, so I'm working hard to manifest the perfect apartment. Here's what I want to make HAPPEN: East Village - I really want to stay in my neighborhood. Doorman - So my deliveries no longer go missing Closer to trains - We're …
NYC Summer Goals!
Summer in the city means sundresses, rooftops, sidewalk cafes, turning hydrants into sprinklers and, of course The Great Flip Flop Debate (as an island girl, I refuse to give up my flip flops). I'm not a huge fan of the heat, but I'm determined to put down the controller and brave the sun more. So …
MoviePass is a Massive Scam
I'm not a generally a complainer, but over the last couple of months I've had such a horrible experience with MoviePass I feel morally obligated to warn my fellow humans. I signed up for the service in early February. And I honestly loved it. MoviePass gave me the freedom to see even the shitty movies …
Lessons New York Will Teach You
An ongoing list of lessons this great city will eventually teach you... If you wear a dress, expect your ass to go on display at least 3 times a day. Plan underthings accordingly. If you accidentally sext your Super, your apartment problems will be solved much faster. You cannot walk your dog after 10pm in …
Visiting Alternate Dimensions
Yesterday after work, my friend Maria and I were in need of an escape. From ourselves. From this planet. So we checked out VR World in midtown- a virtual reality arcade. It's the largest on the planet, in their words. Checking into a Pixar-like animation about an old man who fixes broken dreams. I've only …
Favorite Places – 📖 The Strand Book Store 📚
Even before I lived in NYC, The Strand was a mandatory stop on every trip. Now I'm lucky enough to live and work close enough to make this place and its 18 miles of books a regular hangout. When work is slow, I like to walk the single avenue that separates us and spend an …

Dessert Goals
My first grade teacher taught me the difference between desert and dessert with this helpful line about the S's: If you're lost in the desert, you'll be glad there's only one. If dessert is on the table, you'll want more. The 20+ tables at Dessert Goals created an oasis of saccharine salvation in a pastel …
