You know what, I haven't had a reason to take a selfie since I stopped posting on social media. But I'm taking one today because I’m having a good hair day and what better reason to shoot a selfie than when you’re experiencing your best self. Anyway, today I’m thinking about the fact that I'm…

I am typing this blog as I sit in my bed having just completed my nightly-ish yoga routine wondering what the fuck happened to this weekend and if we can just collectively agree that its Saturday and give ourselves another chance at Sunday. I have been feeling quite anxious and rushed. There is this urgency…

Dearest children of the 21st century, The story I am about to tell you is truly earth shattering. Have a seat. Once upon a time…there was a world. A world I like to call B.F. And in this Before Facebook world, believe it or not, we took pictures…on a camera…with a roll of film…that we couldn’t see.…
