LET’S TALK ABOUT GIRLY THINGS!!!

LET’S TALK ABOUT GIRLY THINGS!!!

I don’t know why “girly things” makes me think of frilly underwear, but it does. I mean, doesn’t the phrase “frilly, lacy panties” make you want to cream your pants? (Okay, I’m on vacation and I may be losing my mind.) Today I want to write about “girly things.” I am a girl and sometimes [...]

GOOD MORNING LOS ANGELES!

GOOD MORNING LOS ANGELES!

Can you imagine how horrible it would be if this blog was named, “GoodMorningLosAngeles.com”! I can think of a few annoying people who could write that blog. Anyway…I’m off to a negative start. It’s Tuesday, August 31st and I have shit to do. Starting today at 5pm, I begin my week off from my official [...]

RAISE YOUR STANDARDS

RAISE YOUR STANDARDS

The first real fight I had with my boyfriend was over the word “proud.” I needed a job — ideally a creative position that didn’t involve working for a complete douchebag. After a month of job-searching, I became desperate and applied to a “Hairstylist Salon Receptionist” position on craigslist. I romanticized the job. I thought [...]

THE “I JUST GOT FIRED FROM A JOB I HATE” PLAN

THE “I JUST GOT FIRED FROM A JOB I HATE” PLAN

I didn’t just get fired. I actually started a new job three months ago and I love it. I love it more than any job I’ve ever had. It’s a part-time writing gig, but it’s really a lot more and I admire everyone I work with. Without sounding cheesy, I feel lucky to work there. [...]

SPEAKING UP FOR ONESELF, or I WAS ILLEGALLY FIRED

SPEAKING UP FOR ONESELF, or I WAS ILLEGALLY FIRED

As I sit at my desk trying to write something interesting, funny, sexy, stupid, etc., I can’t stop thinking, “Motherfucker. I can’t believe I was fired for asking for my paycheck.“ I actually consider this the MOST personal blog post I’ve ever written. Only because it’s quite honest and reveals a bit about my life. [...]

I WANT AN INTERN

I WANT AN INTERN

Every once in a while I hear myself saying, “I want an intern.” I need someone to work with me for a few days…maybe once a week to get shit done. You know? I’m one of those people who likes to be alone a lot. I live alone (unless you’re sleeping over), and I like [...]

WELL, THAT SUMS IT UP!

WELL, THAT SUMS IT UP!

Really funny, offensive and inappropriate e-mail cards from http://www.someecards.com/ – a hilarious e-card company.

TAKING A BREAK TO WORK AN EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING TEMP JOB!

TAKING A BREAK TO WORK AN EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING TEMP JOB!

I’m taking a break from my awesome life of sleeping late, taking a mid-afternoon run, sipping on a nice coffee with steamed soy milk to work a temp job. (I just started drinking coffee three months ago, which co-incidentally coincided with my panicky attacks, and although my husband convinced me to start by telling me, [...]

JAILBIRD

JAILBIRD

I went to work today for 2 hours and ran away. Actually, I think it was more like 1 hour and 20 minutes. At 10:20am, I had a breakdown and had to run out of the office. I was supposed to be TEMPING (wish I had never learned about that “option”) at Bank of America, [...]
