Brain-hurricaning
I remember watching an interview with Dr. Drew in which he explained it’s not celebrity itself that makes people go off the rails, but the perceived pressure to maintain celebrity once they’ve achieved it. I am in no way famous and yet, for the first time in my life, I am experienced said “perceived pressure”.
Yesterday, HelloGiggles published an essay I wrote called...

Okay, so I’ve been quiet about the whole Troy Davis thing for a couple of reasons. 1) I honestly didn’t know all the facts about the case. 2) I have conflicting thoughts and feelings about the death penalty and I’m not in the mood to get into arguments with people I love over my still developing beliefs. 3) I like laughter over discord.
However, I will say this. I’ve been...

2 Broke Girls
I’m home tonight recovering from my crazy flight from LA ordeal (Details aren’t important. Just know that my body has no idea where on Earth it is right now.). So I watched 2 Broke Girls.
It’s a pilot. It’s close to impossible to judge shows on pilots (unless that show is Arrested Development). There was a lot I didn’t really like about the pilot. However, by the end...

How To Love A Boy (As An IKEA Sofa)
Let him sit on you. He’s not that 1,000 lb. guy who tried you out in the living room section of the Stoughton, Massachusetts IKEA and had to be cranelifted off of you. He’s someone different. He’s a recent college graudate. Maybe he will gain 950 lbs. Maybe he won’t. But give him a chance to sit on you because you’re his new sofa. His dad and stepmom didn’t buy you for him...
danielleosaurus-rex asked: How does one become a featured author on HelloGiggles? I would lovelovelove to write stuff for them but as more than just a 'from our readers' contribution.
Judy Blume tweeted a response to my HelloGiggles...
Which means Judy Blume read something I wrote.
I’m fine. It’s cool. Pay no attention to me breathing heavy into this paper bag.

Gaarrrryyy….are you rooting for Anya this season? What do you think of Bert? Isn’t Olivier a little lamb? I once saw Joshua McKinley sitting on the stoop the homeless guy poops on outside my subway station in Queens. Isn’t that fun?

robbyattacks asked: I really like you and your writing and am glad I started following you, but mainly I want to say I appreciate that you just quoted Susan Messing. She's fantastic/not famous enough.
superhumangirl asked: Hi! I really love your blog! But I also have a question. I am trying out for my college's standup club tonight (tonight!) and I've prepared a little material but I am really nervous about how to deliver it when my heart is pounding and people are trying to determine whether I am actually funny or not. So, do you have any pointers on how to actually get the words out and also how to write...
