L.A. TIMES BLOG, BRAND X INTERVIEW

X Questions: Reluctantly Moving to L.A.’s Jamie Sneider Brand X, The Los Angeles Times September, 2010 Most performers come to Los Angeles with dreams of Hollywood fame (or at the very least, paparazzi attention). Jamie Sneider came with a blog — a reluctant one. An NYU graduate and longtime New Yorker, she and her now-ex-husband [...]

THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE AND TAKING A CHANCE

THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE AND TAKING A CHANCE

Four months ago my boyfriend’s sister said to me, with the force, accuracy and aim of a marksman, “You’re stuck in the past. That’s your problem.” We didn’t know each other that well and I was a bit taken aback. Given that she had just recently met me, a tiny voice in me muttered, “No, [...]

MY SENSUAL DENTAL VISIT. WHEN’S MY NEXT APPOINTMENT?

MY SENSUAL DENTAL VISIT. WHEN’S MY NEXT APPOINTMENT?

The title sounds like the making of a malpractice suit, but I just had a really good experience at the dentist office. So good that I feel great about life. If you knew me personally, the idea of enjoying the dentist sounds like a big fat lie. Let me give you a little background: I [...]

“THE WEARY KIND”

“THE WEARY KIND”

I saw Ryan Bingham in Woodland Hills today. For those that don’t live in Los Angeles, that’s “The Valley.” Yup, people go there. I drove home after meeting my boyfriend (who works in Woodland Hills) and played “The Weary Kind” from the Crazy Heart soundtrack. Ryan Bingham wrote the song with T Bone Burnett — [...]

GETTING DIVORCED IN A UPS STORE

GETTING DIVORCED IN A UPS STORE

I feel like I’m on speed. This writing might sound like I’m throwing up on the page, but that’s because I just took two aerobic ass-crunching classes and then a spin class on 5 hours of sleep. Why? Why did I do such masochistic and extreme things to myself? Because my ass is getting to [...]

IT HAS BEEN 5 WEEKS

IT HAS BEEN 5 WEEKS

It has been 5 weeks since my husband left. I know I shouldn’t be writing about this, so says my friends, and probably my better half. The truth is I feel so heavy today. There are so many great things going on around me, and in my professional career: The excitement about my calendar flushes [...]

THINGS I WOULD TELL YOU

THINGS I WOULD TELL YOU

1. Someone killed the big old spider in the garage. I was thinking of giving the garage to the big old spider. He was black and HUGE! He had a big belly like he was pregnant! Pregnant with spider babies! (But then he would have been a she.) 2. I’m gonna take a dance class [...]

GOING ON WITH MY LIFE

GOING ON WITH MY LIFE

I have tremendous guilt. They say Jews have a lot of guilt, but my parents didn’t exactly teach me to feel guilty, or maybe they did. Well…no matter, I’m going to therapy and we’ll figure it out. I feel guilty working on the calendar while being separated. I feel like I don’t want to do [...]

A FEW THANKS FOR MY CALENDAR!!!

A FEW THANKS FOR MY CALENDAR!!!

I love this calendar. I’m working on the website verbiage now and I think it’s gonna kick some ass! I even found these AWESOME BLUE ENVELOPES to ship them in! Can you say “KICK ASS!” Dude, it’s the best Jewish present you’ll ever get…Damn! Can you just imagine the faces of your family when they [...]

PICTURES FROM SHOOT PREPARATION – HUSBAND SAVES SHOOT!

My photographer told me, “The hard part is the preparation,” and it was a killer. We cooked, we shopped, we didn’t sleep. Looking back…it was kinda’ fun.

HUSBAND CANNOT WAIT FOR CALENDAR TO BE OVER!

HUSBAND CANNOT WAIT FOR CALENDAR TO BE OVER!

This calendar has totally affected my life. For me, it’s been great. For my husband, he cannot wait until I finish it. Why? Probably because I’ve been ultra-focused, busy, spending money and distracted. I mean, we still spend lots of time together, and I’m a happier wife. I think the problem stems from the fact [...]

WHAT HAPPENED ON MONDAY NIGHT

WHAT HAPPENED ON MONDAY NIGHT

I didn’t feel well on Monday. My husband thinks my mostly-vegetarian diet has too much fiber. I was, as you’d say, “clogged up” and close to “internal combustion.“ I tried one “innocuous” method my Grandfather used. “Jamie,“ he’d ask, “Can you go to the store and get me some Fleet suppositories“? They don’t work for [...]
