So you know how Google is coming out with a new phone, and how they’re advertising it all over TV? (And no this isn’t an ad…) But their main selling point is twofold: First, that there’s unlimited photo storage, and secondly, that it can take a “selfie” through voice recognition, simply by saying, “Take aContinue reading Take A Selfie? #narcissism
I’m going back to Ohio tomorrow. Just for the weekend. Honestly, I’ve been counting down until this day for the last five weeks now. I just need to see my family. See how my mom is doing. For those who may be new to the blog, she had a stroke about ten months ago, andContinue reading The Price of Dreams
Allow me to set the stage here. Paint you a picture so you can catch a glimpse of how big of a dork I am. It’s a Wednesday evening. 6:30, and I’m in my little NYC kitchen, making a big, beautiful salad. I was super jazzed because I had bought some ~fancy~ ingredients to reallyContinue reading Beautiful Things
I have a confession: one that I’m really not proud of. But tonight at church, and really for the last couple weeks, I honestly have just felt…nothing. It’s like I’ve been spiritually numb. But tonight was different. I was actually getting angry. I was sitting in the pew, and just inexplicably fuming, being critical ofContinue reading Put the Fire Out
Confession: It’s less than 30 minutes before this post is supposed to go “live,” and I’m still staring at a blank screen. After Monday’s post, I’ve been, underwhelmed to say the least, to sit down and pour my heart out in an emotional and spiritually uplifting post. The response, and rather – the backlash –Continue reading Unfailing Love
My heart is shattered today at the news of the pure evil demonstrated last night in Las Vegas. My prayers and deepest sympathies are with our hurting nation right now, and especially the victims and their loved ones. I’ve been hard pressed to peel myself away from the news to write this post. The levelContinue reading More Than A Gun
*Before we jump into tonight’s amazing story (I can say that because it’s not mine 🙂 ) I have 2 quick announcements. Thank you to everyone who has bought my book, Bloom. I am so humbled by the incredible feedback you’ve been sharing with me. It really means a lot. And there are still copiesContinue reading My Mom’s Near Death Experience – In Her Own Words
When I talk to people who lived through my anorexia with me, the overwhelming theme is that people didn’t know how they could help me. They felt their hands were tied. They saw their friend/daughter/sister rapidly wasting away right before their eyes, and they felt helpless. They didn’t know how to get through to me.Continue reading The Problem with Tough Love in Eating Disorder Recovery
I had one of those experiences last night where I could literally feel my heart swell inside of my chest. And not because I ran into my former scene partner from acting school who literally is the doppelgänger of Enrique Eglasias. Hubba hubba. Yeah no. Sorry, completely inappropriate for the topic of tonight’s post. Although…is itContinue reading Finding ‘The Why’
There are three things you should know about me. Number One: My go-to drink is a vodka soda with two limes. With straight up-tequila coming in at a close second. Number Two: It only takes 1/2 a drink for me to get notably tipsy. Number Three: I am completely guarded in word and heart….until saidContinue reading Virgin Shaming?
