I have this really bad way of dealing with things that I either find way too emotionally hurting or confusing. I ignore them. I know... I know, I'm an idiot. Working on it. So now that you know a little about me... let's begin. When I was about 13/14 yrs old, I met my father. It wasn't the first time, it was just the first time I could actually remember it. All I knew about he and my mother was … [Read more...]
I Kissed My Guy- and I Liked It #GetCloserGoFurther
04/25/2013 By 1 Comment
Brought to you by Durex. I remember when I met him. It was Fall 2000. I was on the cusp of turning 22 and he was 19 years old. The first time I saw him, I knew I wanted him. He was tall, brown hair, hazel eyes...with a devilish grin that just left you weak at the knees. We had a chemistry that those around us could only describe as explosive. It was hot...it was exciting...and it was amazing. … [Read more...]
My Work, My Life, My Stress…How I Get It Done #SecretEstres
04/24/2013 By 5 Comments
Thanks to a partnership with Secret, I am sharing my story and tips on preventing Estres. For more tips, just click here. Picture this: You're traveling for work. The airport is packed but you planned enough time so you have an hour at security. As you stand in line, your husband calls- your child has a fever, get home soon. Security drags on and on. You finally make it through, and get to … [Read more...]
Growing Old Together…Literally
04/18/2013 By 3 Comments
Last weekend, my husband was driving us to a cool event which we were invited to via C9 for Target, Soleil Moon Frye (Punky, you GUYESS!) and Target. I once owned Punky shoes and I live at Target (what's three hours every day), so I was pretty psyched to attend. We were tired but Sofia had a blast and we got to wear some cool stuff that Target sent to us before the event which have to be the most … [Read more...]
The Household Balancing Act: Strong and Soft #AngelSoft
04/05/2013 By 2 Comments
On an average day, our family life is...well, hectic. Three schedules, three cats, and let's throw in all the chores and errands it takes to have it run efficiently at a somewhat sane level can make one a little crazy. Let's throw in MY job. I negotiate contracts, talk to people, write, promote...and that's not when I travel, which is a big part of the job, and that just adds to the … [Read more...]
Spring Break Makes Me The WORST Mom EVER
03/27/2013 By 3 Comments
I know... I've heard it before. Value your time with your kids. They're only young once. Spring Break is a time to be with your kids. Blah blah blah. I'm sorry but I call BULLSHIT. I love my girl, just as much as any mom loves her child. I look at her little face and am overwhelmed with a feeling so deep, that I never knew I could love like that until I had her. But...BUT, I am not super … [Read more...]

*This is on a non event/screening/interview day* 6:30am Alarm Goes Off, no one moves but me. Hit Snooze. 6:40am Alarm- turn off my kinda accident. 7:00am- OH CRAP.

Taking A Risk Made Me Stronger #AngelSoft
03/07/2013 By 153 Comments
I still remember the conversation that made me take the biggest risk of my life. I was on a phone call with my friend who had moved to Philadelphia after High School to spend time with her father. I was 20 yrs old, and had never left Los Angeles and the East Coast was this magical land to me. I had seen it in movies and TV shows, and it always seemed to be "the" place to be when you were an adult. … [Read more...]
Battling Cold and Flu Season- With Caldo and Sleep
02/27/2013 By 1 Comment
I thought I had escaped it this year...it was mid-February and my entire family had remained pretty germ free the whole season. Then, it happened. I got a fever and a week later my daughter had one too. Now, my husband is sick. Cold and Flu season hit our home with a vengeance. Over the years I have been able to develop my own ways of battling the germs, mainly my mom's good ol' … [Read more...]
I’m Afraid to Admit That I’m Happy
02/15/2013 By 14 Comments
Last weekend, the man and I watched Girls on HBO as usual. We both love Lena Dunham, but hate the generation she is a part of...cause well, we're old. Ok, not really....we just feel old. Now, the episode itself was odd. If it had been a movie, with the whole situation played out, it may have been brilliant-kinda like Before Sunrise, but it is only a 25 min show, and it just hit as strange, sad … [Read more...]
