I have definitely had experiences where I can feel the shift from simply living my life to being slightly outside of my life and taking notes.

The world I describe is about how people live now. It's not about zany people with unlimited, inexplicable funds in an apartment somewhere.

The truth is, I wrote a novel when I was 23. It's hideously bad. Truly rotten.

A human being can spend only so much time outside her comfort zone before she realizes she is still tethered to it.

Juice cleansing has been all the rage for some time. And I used the word 'rage' advisedly; one must push a violent flood of liquidised vegetables and fruit through one's system for at least three days in order to perform a 'cleanse.'

We all deserve to be congratulated, but sadly that would mean there's no one left to do the congratulating.

I do want to get married. It's a nice idea. Though I think husbands are like tattoos--you should wait until you come across something you want on your body for the rest of your life instead of just wandering into a tattoo parlor on some idle Sunday and saying, 'I feel like I should have one of these suckers by now. I'll take a thorny rose and a "MOM" anchor, please. No, not that one--the big one.
