Alaska to Florida- A Sister Adventure

And all the mini-adventures in between. I lived in New York City for eleven years, long enough to know that leaving in August was the secret to happiness and fulfillment. The city empties out, and the only ones left are a few Trader Joe’s cashiers, some waiters, and millions of…

SOS- I’m Trapped at Burning Man

And I can’t wait to return next year! I’m at Burning Man and it’s not going well, to say the least. But this is the life of a Burner. My phone is dangerously low on power; I can’t even take a selfie. I’d drop a pin, but my location won’t…

When I got an email from my friend Anikka inviting me to Italy for her thirty-ninth birthday, I thought maybe it was spam or a Nigerian Prince at first. But after re-reading the evite several times, I determined it was real. “Tuscany. Wine. Castle. Italy.” …

I’m Going to Hell

I Was Tricked Into Snorting Cocaine

Never trust a person who asks you to smell their mirror. My parents made me play sports growing up, even though I’ve always been more of a tortured artist with a flare for dramatics. I was on the Swim team, the Volleyball team, and the Softball team in my hometown…
