I love LA!
I have lived in Los Angeles 3 years today. It seems like
only two years, the last year literally flew. I feel like it was the fastest
year I ever have lived through. Hard to believe the year has passed.
Last year’s anniversary of my move blog post I reflected on
everything that had happened since I moved, I don’t feel the need to do that
this year. While a lot of things have changed, many still stay the same. I have a newer BMW. I have another kitten. I
have moved to Culver City. I am j...

Freak Out
It’s about 1.5 hours until we land in Newark Airport, and I
started reading blog posts from 2006 and 2007. I am not sure where or if I
published these. If I did it was on something like Myspace. I never had an
official l blog until this blog, which is funny because I have been writing my
entire life. Maybe that is my problem right there, I lack real motivation. I
thought I would have had a novel published by 30. I have written many many character sketches,
many plotlines, written a few pa...

wedding madness
I am on a plane, heading to NJ for my bachelorette party! I
don’t know what is planned, or who will be there but I am excited. I didn’t
think I would be, but I am. I can’t believe I am the bride. I am the
bachelorette. I am the one getting
married. For many many years I said I
would not get married, I liked living my life alone. How can I be so certain of
something, and then it all changed? How could I have ever thought a life alone
would be a good idea? Or fun? I thought, I could d...

Introducing the newest member of our family . . . Penelope
Skye!
Zoe had been lonely when we left her during the day which
lead us to think we needed to get her a friend. After weeks and weeks of
debating, and asking our friends with cats how do you go about transiting this,
we decided to go for it. One day after brunch, headed to the West LA Animal
Shetlter, where we saw a cage up front that is exactly where we got Zoe.
Penelope was in a foster home, the same one who housed Zoe. It seemed ...

wedding madness
Getting married is
amazing. I am so happy and thankful I found Alex. At the same time,
getting married makes me think about things, people, events I have not thought
about in years. Mostly things I have been avoiding, and not really wanting to
reflect on. I have noticed more and more as the date gets closer, strange flashbacks
of my childhood is shooting to the forefront of my memory. Things I have never
have remembered before, houses I have been too, with people I don't recall.
It's odd...

Job Search
I was doing really well emotionally, mainly because I thought one of my very positive leads would have panned out by now. After all the interviews I have been on, I am still at square one, and more frustrated, and depressed then I could have thought possible. I am 4 months into my 3rd unemployment stint. I can’t believe it’s been 4 months already. I don’t know where the time went. I try to stay motivated, on track with all my “projects,” do my best to stay positive, but I feel like ...

Job Search
In March I was laid off again, and this time I was extremely
positive about it. I never liked the job I was working at and had been
interviewing pretty steadily. I wasn't worried at all. Honestly figured it was
for the best and I would have a new job within a month. I had just gone on 2
interviews that had gone really well, and thought at least one would come
through. I was so positive, and thought
there is no way I can be going through this again for a 3rd time and
recently engaged.

happiness
I have not written in a while, and I can’t explain why. I have been going through so much since my last post, so many emotions, so much growth, failure, disappointment, happiest than I have ever felt before. Generally I don’t write when I am happy, or feeling unmotivated, so it explains my lack of writing somewhat.
It’s funny to look back at my blog and realize all the things that have happened to me that I have not blogged about. When I started this blog, I was writing about all my st... Continue reading ...

Ali
One year ago, this week, my beloved Ali-Cat was put to sleep. It is impossible to believe it has been one year. One year seems so long, and yet it feels like yesterday. I still miss Ali very much. I think about her often. Seeing pictures of her, feels strange. Her passing, still feels so raw. I read my blog post about that awful day this morning, remembering, and reflecting with tears running down my face. I am still very emotional about her passing.

Home
I have not been home since February-- 6 months. I am feeling so homesick. I can't wait to have a flight booked and know when I will be home. I have not felt like this in a long time. Thankfully since I really hate this feeling. I miss my friends, and family a lot. Looking forward to seeing everyone. I wish it was sooner than later.

I love LA!
Two years ago August 15th I moved from NY to LA.
These two years have flown, each day seems to come and go faster than the day
before. It is so hard to believe I have been away from my home for 2 years,
away from my mom, and my friends for 2 years. It took everything I had to pick
up and follow a dream I had for 30 years. Now I have been here for two years.
It’s almost surreal.
I remember August 15, 2009 like it was yesterday. I woke up,
thinking this is my last day living in NY. I am movin... Continue reading ...

Zoe
It’s been 3 week since I took home Zoe Madison. She has
really become a wonderful part of my life, fitting in right away. I fell in
love with her the moment I held her and knew she was coming home! From what I have
seen Zoe has equally fallen in love with me. She follows me everywhere I go,
sits on my lap, and cuddles with me. She needs to be right near me all the
time. It’s so cute. She has the best personality, very friendly, and loving.
There is nothing about this cat not to love!

My birthday came, went and was everything I wanted and more!
My mom arrived in Los Angeles two days before my birthday. I was so excited to see her, and happy for her to finally meet my amazing boyfriend. Having my mom here was enough of a birthday present but I knew more was in store. Alex had planned a lovely family brunch on my birthday day at Moonshadows in Malibu, right on the water. We sat outside, breathing in the fresh air, and eating the amazing food. I felt like such a princess.Ev...

In one week, my mom will be visiting me for 10 days! I can't wait! I have not seen her since I was last home in February. May has always been fabulous, mainly cause my birthday is the end of the month. I am excited all around!

I love LA!
It’s hard to believe I have lived in Los Angeles for a year and a half. I have had many ups and downs, but I know I made the right decision. I was meant to move out to Los Angeles. I always knew there was more for me then living in New York and New Jersey. Something was always pushing me out West. When I was a kid my dream was to move to Los Angeles to be close to my grandma and great aunt. I wanted to be a doctor and make my grandma better. By the time I got to know my grandma, she was ver...
