Obsessions

After moving back to the Seattle area last year, I decided I wanted to volunteer at Seattle Humane. I was fairly “broken and bruised” – literally and figuratively – after pursuing a music career in NYC for six years, and I had a gut feeling that focusing my energy on a greater cause would be…

Well, fellow footy fans, France is your new 2018 FIFA World Cup champions! Congratulations to “les bleus” for winning what had to be the most underwhelming final match I’ve ever seen. And well done to Croatia for making it this far. Despite a rather anticlimactic finish, I have to say this year’s World Cup was…

HAPPY BELATED NEW YEAR, ALL! The fact that this blog post is so untimely is the perfect example of why I gave up New Year’s resolutions years ago – I can’t even make my lists on time, let alone complete everything on it within 365 days. That being said, as an avid listener to Happier…

For whatever reason, I feel like more people have been bitching about the Christmas rush this year than usual.

HAPPY GARB DAY! If you have no idea what I’m talking about, I’m referring to my newest obsession involving the three most adorable triplets I’ve ever seen and their local sanitation engineers. Heaton (Big Boy Heat), Holden (Punkie Pie), and Wilder (Wild Man) – collectively known as the Snicker Doodles – have been brightening up…

I don’t even remember when I started watching Full House. Maybe I was four-years-old. Five? Either way, I know one thing: I have always had a girl crush on Stephanie Tanner (Jodie Sweetin). Not only was Stephanie’s catch phrase – “How rude!” – my favorite, but she was also the funniest of the Tanner girls.…
