Duffy at the Apollo

I may have more than just a girl crush. I was practically ready to get down on one knee and pull out a Tiffany’s box for this adorable little sprite of a girl with a big voice after she rocked the Apollo in a white tank dress and patent red heels last night. Although, […]

Overheard on the Streets of New York

“Oh my god, that’s like a bad Cameron Diaz movie,” exclaimed the woman walking past me on a cell phone.
I’m going to have to assume that this woman was referring to recently hitting the jackpot in Vegas and being forced to live with the imbecile who she married while intoxicated. Because other than that […]

What Would Earl Do?

In general, I’ve got pretty good karma. I’ve gotten lucky in drawings, raffles and such and I generally find the answers to crises of housing, employment, etc. just when I was ready to give up hope (and yes, I’m knocking on wood as I type this- shout out to the karma gods!).
But what I’ve […]

Observation Dating Déjà Vu

I should have known something was suspicious from the guy’s opening line:
Looks directly at me, “I have to apologize…”
“Why?” I ask as girlfriend and I exchange glances.
“Because I really like the way she looks,” he replies turning to said girlfriend.
Okay, way to start on an arrogant note. Read The Game much, buddy? Making […]

Homecoming

I always think of going home with such jubilation that I forget that it isn’t necessarily a universal sentiment. I stay at my parent’s house instead of renting a hotel room, even if that means I have occasionally been stuck sleeping on a sofa in the living room. I know that I’ll always be […]

Signs You May Be Living on a Struggling New Yorker’s Budget

1. Buying shampoo and conditioner in travel-size containers, which is all you can afford while living paycheck to paycheck, and rationing the contents carefully.
2. That extra ten pounds gained after cancelling your gym membership to save money. Subsisting on a strict diet of Top Ramen and Kraft Mac ‘n Cheese hasn’t helped either.
3. Wasting […]

In the Club (sorry, 50 Cent, I proofread)

I’m pretty sure I’ve sold my soul.
Working at a nightclub is one of the last things I ever imagined doing at this stage in my life. I partied like a rock star in my day, but lately I’ve hung my dancing shoes on such a high enough shelf that I have to really want […]

Kiss Her?! But I’M Irish!

The luck of the leprechauns was not with me yesterday. In fact, I’m wondering if ancestors of mine were actually gold thieves and I’m living out a curse based on their bad behavior.
The worst nights always start so well, letting you slip out of that heavy coat of defense into something more comfortable until […]

Bleepin’ BLEEEEEEEEEE-eeeeeeeep!

Shit, it’s been almost a week. You know what they say to addicts, dieters, and anyone involved in a workout plan that falls off the wagon- don’t dwell on the past just pick up and do the best you can moving forward, one day at a time.
I can rattle off all the necessary excuses- […]
