Self-Doubt is the WORST
I started this blog just after my 29th birthday, about 8 months ago.

I know that 29 … Continue reading »

When I think about my time in theater I think about the friends I made, the community and the camaraderie. … Continue reading »
Dear TV, You Are a Huge Disappointment
Dear TV, I understand I don’t pay for your premium channels. I haven’t seen Homeland, or Boardwalk Empire, and I paid for the first season on Girls on iTunes.

Making Friends is like Dating
Trying to make friends as a grown up is like dating. I’ve written before about how most of my friends I knew in college or from teaching. Its hard to make friends outside of those worlds because our lives are all so separate from each other. If you meet someone cool and you want to … Continue reading »
