A girlfriend and I were out tonight discussing famous men that we’re attracted to. Some of them definitely fit a pattern, while others were way out of left field. I’m interested in feedback? What common traits can you find among this list:
1. Jonathan Rhys Myers
2. George Clooney
3. Omar Epps
4. Johnny Depp
5. Justin Timberlake
6. Jamie Foxx
7. Jon Stewart
8. Channing Tatum
9. Leonardo DiCaprio

Sometimes You Just Have to Laugh (Especially at Yourself!)

I haven’t read The Secret, but the one thing I have heard is to watch what you say out loud because it puts it out there in The Universe and there’s no taking it back. This definitely applied to me chatting with some of the girls about the last time we had a late […]

There’s No Such Thing as a Sure Thing

So, I’ve had friends tell me that I can occasionally think like a guy. Particularly when I’m on vacation and would rather make-out with someone who I can easily walk away from than someone I would get emotionally involved with and actually miss. That’s why they call it a fling, right?
I thought for sure […]

It’s a Small City After All

I love those nights when you realize that even Manhattan can start to feel like a small town if you’re here long enough. My girlfriend Callie is in town from Los Angeles so we went out for drinks at my old watering hole near midtown. She’s famous there because on her last trip she […]

I Guess I Was Due for One of These

Number of drunk text messages sent last night: 50, including-
“I hate that we don’t talk anymore. I don’t want anything more but miss your friendship”
“Where are you? I could use a good night kiss”
“What if you and I had one night we never told anyone about”
And my personal favorite, “Im so wishing out yo […]

Envy vs. Kindness

It turns out I did get another chance to see Investment Banker. When my flight home from Vegas was canceled and I was tragically forced to spend three extra days lying by the pool, I also gained an extra night out with Showgirl, her boyfriend, and his cute friends that were in town.
We met […]

Greed vs. Generosity

Many people may be surprised by this one, but I was overwhelmed by generosity, not greed, in Las Vegas. I managed to stay an entire week without booking my own hotel room, and I did not have to go “hooking for housing” as one of my friends so eloquently named it.
It began when my […]

Gluttony vs. Abstinence

Vegas was definitely designed to be the ultimate test of willpower. For gamblers, there are slot machines in the airport the moment you get off the plane, and tables and casinos galore that you have to walk through just to get to your room. Luckily, considering the number of times I got lost trying […]

My Boss Should Buy Me a Drink

One thing sets working in the arts apart from corporate America- alcohol is embraced as part of life. I realized this at the reading of a great play tonight, where although they were looking for funding, drinks for the audience and cast were still included in the budget.
Think about it- can you picture a […]

I Have a Degree in People Watching

You know, sociology should be taught in bars. It’s a fascinating study. I got glimpses of two VERY different scenes tonight.
I started out at Connelly’s, one of my favorite Irish pubs just off of Times Square. I was sitting next to a group of women in town from Texas who were drinking their faces […]
