When the Olympics hit Beijing in a week, you won’t see any sex shop signs as authorities are conducting a campaign to rid the city of anything deemed “unsightly”. This is just another example of perception vs. reality, and I must say, Asia does a great job of keeping up perceptions. Photo courtesy of The […]
The Big Picture by the Boston Globe does a great job converting today’s news into pictures. I love the ones about the Olympic trials for swimming and diving. The diving ones are hysterical; the photographer caught some great facial expressions. The swimming ones show Michael Phelps once again having a less than stellar start and […]
For the last few weeks, I’ve been contemplating switching from Blogger to WordPress. Last night, I gave WordPress a spin. It’s cool and really easy to add extra pages, meaning I could potentially integrate some of my freelance portfolio into the site vs. having different back ends to toggle between. However, when it imported all […]
A few years ago, I got a tiny, discrete tattoo. Shocker, right? Anyway, one-sixth of it represents dreams let go of. At the time, I was ready to let go of the biggest dream I had had to date. It had broken into a million pieces without any possibility of being able to pick up […]

Forty-eight hours in Vegas, in theory, is a cute idea […]
I’m a little concerned that pigs will start flying and hell will freeze over. Just a few things that crossed my mind in the last few weeks: Signing a year lease. In fact, I took it a step further and actually considered buying a place if the floor plan I liked wasn’t available for rent. […]
The other day, Dear Jane Sample wrote about mistakes and reminded her readers that mistakes happen and no matter how big or small, life goes on; it’s not a big deal. While I agree, I don’t accept that. Mistakes shouldn’t happen, especially when presenting, reporting, etc. to someone that’s your senior. This week was riddled […]
I’m stubborn. Some say insanely so. Because of this, I typically listen to my head instead of my gut. Afterwards, I end up shaking my head, because, you guessed it, my gut has always been right. Except for this week. Not once, but three times in a single week, my gut screamed like crazy and […]
