Memories are a funny thing. Sometimes, you fight to hold onto them. And sometimes, you fight to let them go. I’m not sure which scenario is harder to accomplish. For a long time, I was so scared of losing certain memories that I clung on with everything I had. I was so scared of what […]
I wish it was this easy to turn the frogs into princes, but alas… at least the chase is fun. Whatever “prince” you’re chasing, never give up. Ever. Whether it’s a boy (or girl), a job, a promotion, faster times, a World Championship, etc., it’s out there waiting for you… just keep chasing and kissing. […]
I’m really looking forward to taking two weeks of vacation. Okay, okay, it’s not two solid weeks. But, it’s close and it’s the longest vacation I’ve taken in well, a long time. In honor of it, I thought I’d make a list of a few of my favorite things: Hammocks. When I was a baby, the […]
I really enjoyed this post on Agency Spy about The Don’ts of Advertising Agencies: The Women’s Edition. Here’s a few of my favorites and a few of my own: Don’t call me a bitch. Shockingly, I’m not on the rag everyday. I just know what I want and am willing to go to any length […]

Besides the water color and diving, by favorite part about the Bahamas and more specifically, Scotland Key, is my brightly […]
As budget season winds to a close and presentation season gets into full swing, I thought I’d provide a few tips on presenting: Dress to impress. Wear makeup. Put on a suit and tie (if applicable) and break out the cuff links. Hell, I even wear shoes to these meetings. Decide the appropriate forum for […]
Burn out sucks. And wow, am I burned out. The worst part? The trickle down effect is in full force… from work, to sex, to designing artwork for the new place to blog post ideas… BLAH. BLAH. BLAH.
Another scenario about the BDA that I just don’t understand: – You’ve been working on my account for ten months. – When you first came on board, I spent two full weeks out of my personal time explaining our brand to you. In fact, we shared a desk so you could get an up close […]
As of late, thoughts of passion and happiness have been at the forefront of my mind. Two years ago, I made myself a promise: My happiness is the only thing that matters. And, no matter what it costs or what lengths I have to go to, I will always be happy. Thus far, I’ve stayed 100% […]
