The Uniform Project

So for the entire month of September I’m doing this thing called “The Uniform Project.”I’ll be wearing the same dress for an entire month (designed by Miss Judi Rosen of course) and I’m not allowed to buy anything new either. I can wear what I already …

MEXICO

I just got back from Mexico. Maybe I was sleep deprived, but tell me if your brain wtf’s this as much as mine did.I guess having to be at the airport at 4am didn’t help, but I was kind of hungry and thirsty and usually I just depend on the kindness of …

Playing The Sax That Sounds Like Life

Today was a great day in LA.I actually drove past “Melrose Place.”Then when I was driving down Sunset, “Hazy Shade Of Winter” by The Bangles came on the radio and it was just like Less Than Zero. There were palm trees everywhere.I also found (after a m…

The Groupie Chronz: I’m Not With The Band

I posted this on buzznet but thought I’d share it with you guys as well. What happened is that I got the chance to hang around a band. I got to win my way into their hearts, or at least try, so I figured I’d kill two creative birds with one bedazzled s…

Love Was A Dangerous Angel

I went to the screenplay reading of Weetzie Bat last night at Book Soup in LA. I wore this outfit because I thought it was Weetzie-esque. The thing about LA is that wearing anything other than flip flops makes you feel way overdressed. So that happened…

I’m Going To This

I hope it’s not too packed

Black Eyes. Cold Hearts. Born 2 Lose.

I’ve been having a really hard time lately, mostly it has to do with work (lack thereof). I’m not sure if this is the sort of thing I’m supposed to admit to the public or not, like does it make me seem less successful/competent? Probably.It’s the lack …

I Never Promised You A Wrap Dress

I know it’s hot in NYC, but over here in Los Angeles it’s chilly! I got excited about this wrap dress I found at a thrift store.Check out my rat tail and peep the way I wear it.I’m crazy about these socks I got from Top Shop. I need more thigh highs in…

Little Things

I just needed to share this with you:1. My favorite drinking glass.(dare you to notice my meditation stone in the background)2. Pretty baubles in the bathroom, just casually hanging there.3. THIS DOG4. THIS DOG AGAIN(Name: OSO. He is 14 years old).

Status Report

Los Angeles has been treating me well. There are some ins and outs I’ve had to learn, for example, I can’t really go anywhere between the hours of 4-7pm (the traffic will make you slit your wrists, plus the fact that the sun is beating down on you and …

"I really want a Fedora…"

The Fat Jew and Jonny Famous made this. Honestly, it’s like literally so funny. I can’t even deal you guys!!! It’s my friends birthday, play Lollipop!!

Driving: A Love Story

1. My House, In The Middle Of The Street: Los Angeles is good. Real good. It’s quiet and weird and different. It’s hard not to pretend that I’m Weetzie Bat up in this Shangri-liscious canyon. We have tons of tiny white lights that sparkle at night all …

Going Going Gone

A lot of people think travel isn’t such a big deal. Even if it’s for a long time, let’s say, 2 months, people are still like “Oh it will be great” and “what’s the big deal?”They are right on both accounts, and while they obviously don’t know that “it w…

Grease Is The Way That I’m Feeling

Her hair was blue, now it’s green. I like her mind, she hates the scene.

Elizabeth and I started a new blog about the 90s. The REAL 90s. We’re sick of the kids raping our youth and wanna set things straight. Check it out.

ASK ARF NUTZ

So it’s 11pm and I’m still at the office with Elizabeth. We got so heavily sidetracked in a 90s conversation that I can’t even go into full detail about it because it might just be THE most important conversation I’ve ever had. Like way bigger than I c…

stuff like this

I haven’t updated in a while because I’ve been feeling extremely vulnerable. Overly emotional. Do you ever feel that way? It’s not so much depression or anxiety (right now) just a protective shield I need to use. It separates me from my friends, from o…
