Hi everyone; I want to write this week's blog about being intentional. I have spent many years trying to figure out the best path for my goals, and this year I have come to terms with the fact that I am all out of ideas. I am free from my expectations and will allow my…
#267 a cheer-up list
After a long week of feeling the blues, I was told to put together a list of things that cheer me up. Honestly, it is such a simple question, but it stumped me. I can't indulge in foods I enjoy because I fear gaining weight. I wish I could indulge in ice cream, but I…

#266 lethargic
It has been an odd week. My moods have been swiveling up and down. I spent a couple of days sick. No, not covid. Just an annoying cold. My head was fuzzy, my ears were blocked, and my nose was really runny. I had honey with tea, and that made it worse. I think I…
Bla Bla Land: Chapter 39
Judd Apatow was a simple man. He wore simple beige pants with a black polo shirt that was loosely fitted. He was cool. I couldn't believe I was in the room with him. Let me back up a little. It was my first time at the Sony lot in Culver City. It was a cloudy,…

Bla Bla Land: Chapter 38
I made a good amount of mistakes at Barry Katz Entertainment. I messed up Barry’s salad many times. He told me that the chef knew him and would make it the way he wanted, but the chef had no idea who I was or what I wanted. This led to a screwed-up salad. He had…
Review: The Fablemans
The Fablemans by Steven Spielberg is up for review this week! Happy Friday, folks! It is exciting to write about his film, but I don't know where these feelings stem from. I been itching to watch The Fablemans for a while, but the theater I usually go to wasn't showing the film. I ended up…
#264 Winter Recess
It's officially winter recess! I feel immense joy getting a break from working in educational institutions. For the first time in forever, I feel excited to be off work, don't get me wrong.
