Dear Girl Who Gave Danny Brown Oral Sex On Stage,

Saw your pic on the Internet and wanted to drop you a quick line. I'm pretty sure we've never met before, but it's hard to tell from the angle and such.

I wanted to reach out because I...

Unlike most of my friends, I can't wait to turn 30. I'm 28 right now, and no longer amused by this decade of indecision, hesitation, frustration, and every other word that ends in 'tion' that sucks. My 20s could best be summarized as a rolling cycle of unexceptional efforts. If...

When I went home for the holidays this year, I overheard my mom and uncle discussing arrangements for my grandmother's funeral, which struck me off-guard since my grandma's not dead. Actually, every year we think she's going to die, but she keeps plowing right on through like she's been kidding...

It's that time of year again, a chance for me to look back on 2012 and figure out what went wrong. Last year, I identified all the ways I wasted time, and ultimately, it was useful as I was able to remove several energy-depleting triggers from my life...

Everyone tells me not to worry about things -- just be happy or whatever -- but I have an anxiety disorder, so technically that's not possible unless I'm on pills (which I'm considering). I was never properly diagnosed with anxiety, but my whole family has a problem, and it doesn't...

This week, I turn 28-years-old, which means it's time to reevaluate life and consider how everything's going to change in my maturity. The best way to do this, I determined, is to look at other 28-year-olds, establish what they're doing right and where they've gone awry, and gauge what it...

Last weekend, I ran into a little conundrum over a rule I made for myself a month ago regarding whether or not I would continue going home with guys I met while out on the town. I decided that, since I never have a boyfriend and my track record consists...

Not everybody is good enough to eat at every restaurant in this country, and in places like New York and Los Angeles, some people are not even qualified to walk into restaurants. I understand how the system works because, while I'm not V.I.P. in Hollywood, in Hendersonville, North Carolina, where...

The question has finally reached a tipping point in my mind: Do I want to have money and enjoy my life or do I want to pretend like being broke is getting me somewhere?

While it's not good to compare your life to other people, I do. In fact, that's...

I'm hesitant to do this because I'm almost positive I will be receiving an Oscar within the next two to three years (five max). Thus, I will face the onerous task of crafting an entirely new acceptance speech solely on the basis of this blog. On the other hand, in...

Last year, to the bafflement of friends, family, and Jonathon, the IT guy at my office, I announced my decision to leave work and go to law school. I was super serious about it too. Given my penchant for entertainment and notoriously capricious behavior however, I anticipated this decision would...

Sundance, for me, begins and ends with Ice-T. Attending for the first time this year, I landed Saturday amidst a disastrous snowstorm, and, due to time constrictions, was forced to schlep my suitcase around in the blizzard. Plus, I forgot my hat (I live in California!). Nevertheless, I remained calm...

One of the most notable and extraordinary stories depicted this year at Sundance was that of a little known writer from Berkeley, who managed to outdo the inhibitions of his existence to explore the realms of love and, most importantly, get laid. The feature film, The Surrogate, which premiered Monday...

Not to be doom and gloom, but every year, as December draws to a close and everyone charts their "Best-Of" inventories, I prefer rather to reflect on the mistakes I made throughout the year: ways I've squandered my money; life-changing decisions that went awry (I temporarily moved to New York...
