Time Machine
I just enjoyed a really lazy Thanksgiving weekend. I napped, caught up on some shows on my DVR, read a book, napped, started reading another book, called up some friends, napped, watched an ASU football game, watched some NFL, and napped. You can see a theme : ) I purposefully limited my productivity. My fall […]

“FAME! I’m Going to Live Forever”
When I was in sixth grade, I performed in the musical FAME at my school. Recently a friend posted clips on youtube of the performance, destroying any remaining hope of claiming we put on a good show. I had a blast at the time and really enjoyed performing, but I must give incredible thanks to […]

Inspiration
So I’m a Project Runway fan. My addiction began a few years ago when I was visiting my cousins over Fourth of July, and we beat the heat for a bit, watching some episodes during a marathon on Bravo. The latest season on Lifetime has been okay. I’ll agree with most reviewers and say the judging has been […]

I’m Free
After a few great days of presenting at Bret Harte High School, I ended up back in my rental car with a long drive to the airport yesterday. I listened to the latest podcast of This American Life, and then decided to go deeper into my iPhone and played music from The Who’s Tommy. I […]
