A California Girl In Kansas

Jenelle and I have secretly (ok, not so secretly really) had the dream of being photographed for the social pages of this ridiculous local publication called Splurge!  Yeah, it’s called Splurge!  With an exclamation point and everything.  Nonetheless, the fine magazine has since gone belly up and our dreams subsequently shattered.  But we still hope […]

Sex and the City - the movie(!) has begun filming in (where else?) New York City.

I am ecstatic.  This brings me back to the semi-ghetto Rancho Cordova apartment that Martine and I shared with our psychopath, gun-toting roommate and sorority sister, Oriana.  Thankfully, the crazy biotch would go out of town on the weekends and […]

I’m sick.  Like barfing and fever and some other unpleasant stuff.
I have no idea if it’s food poisoning or the flu, but you can be damn sure that I won’t be eating at Johnny Carino’s ever again.  No more soup and salad lunches for me, thankyouverymuch.

I sooooo should know better than to a) take a nap at 6 pm and then b) make myself a triple iced latte (nonfat, two Splendas) at 10 pm.
I am never going to bed.

When I saw that this week’s Friday blogthing, courtesy of emawkc, was a quiz that determines how California you are, I was thrilled. I mean, HELLO, I am a California girl in Kansas, remember? This quiz was MADE for me.
Only my enthusiasm quickly turned to mild depression when I got the results back:

I’m back.
I feel like I have a million things to tell you all, but I don’t really know where to start.
Let’s begin with DC.  It was pretty good.  Aside from the conference, there was a lot of R&R.  Plus, Camille and I hit the International Spy Museum, which was basically the most amazing thing ever.  […]

Yesterday, Erin posted about being a party starter.  I have a party starting story for y’all too - but first you must get a little background…
So back in the day (roughly 1989-1991), I was like the number one New Kids on the Block fan (yeah, you might think you were number one, but I’m sorry […]

I am, like, more than Hillary Clinton powerful. More than The Olsen twins with their mega merchandising millions and Wal-Mart clothing line! More than Barbara Walters and the crazy women on The View! More than Martha Stewart powerful! Ooh… need to take a moment to let that one sit in. […]

I like traveling, I really do.  But I have a very short attention span and a short fuse and little patience.  So basically I’m a pain in the ass.  I’m just tired of being away from home, tired of struggling to pay attention in class, feeling trapped in freezing air conditioned rooms (including my hotel room […]

Should anyone in the Denver, Kansas City, Seattle, San Diego or Washington, DC area know of any exciting marketing or writing opportunities in their area (read: a new job for Shea), please let me know at your earliest convenience.
Thank you.
