Between playing President Ellis in Iron Man 3 and the fast talking Ed Musgrove in the pilot of The Onion News Empire, actor William Sadler has not slowed down. The actor, who in his free time loves to draw as well as play the...

Charisma Carpenter is very busy these days, and I had the opportunity to sit down with the actress on her recent trip to NYC. Best known for playing Cordelia Chase on Buffy The Vampire Slayer (the role she tells me was her favorite to play!), Charisma talked openly about her...

A few years ago, "How I Met Your Mother" aired an episode called "Murtaugh," in which one of the main characters, Ted, lists things he's too old to do anymore. With my birthday just around the corner, I got to thinking about growing up and what's expected of you at...

Being diagnosed with a condition that causes chronic pain can put a severe damper or even a hold on your life. You can't do the things you enjoy, and in some cases, you can't do the things other people see as simple. It's not always easy to talk about either....

I wanted to talk a little about the term First World Problems ( or "White People Problems" as some people say), and how ridiculous I think it is.

The first place I ever heard of this term, was on Twitter. People were complaining about not being able to...

While we all have distractions in our life, I believe there has to be a time when we can tune out the little voice in our heads telling us to check our email for the eighth time that hour.

Have you had a friend who is constantly...

I watch a lot of television. A lot. I know there are people who say they don't own a television, and I really don't know how they do it. Maybe I am just not as strong-willed as they are, or maybe it's because it's about 30 degrees every day and...

Just like most of you, I am counting down the days until the second season of Girls premieres! As a native New Yorker, and having lived in three out of the five boroughs, shows about New York City hold a very special place in my heart. From Seinfeld to Suits,...

Sometime right after Christmas (you know, the "happiest" time of the year"), my husband and I went out to dinner. It was a cold December night, and we were both in cranky mood. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were shown to our table, where we proceeded to pick...

To state the obvious, there are a lot of guys out there. Many of them are wonderful and will treat you well -- and many just won't. I have heard people say that there are signs right at the beginning of a relationship that can indicate whether or not it...

From what I have learned, being engaged is a beautiful time in your life. A time when you and your fiancé grow together as a couple, and face important decisions that may affect your future together. In addition to these life-altering decisions, you also make many seemingly important decisions when...

I can't tell you how many times it's happened to me. I stand there, in the rain, or in the snow, or on a perfectly beautiful spring day and I hail a lit cab, and it just drives right on by me. OK, so perhaps the cab driver didn't see...

Anyone who knows me can tell you first hand, I am obsessed with dessert. Honestly, I have a sweet tooth that can usually only be curbed by the most sugary thing I can find. One of my favorite treats in particular is the delicious (and increasingly trendy) cupcake. It used...

In 2009, a young woman living in Tennessee went through a terrible break-up from an emotionally abusive man. Being involved in a toxic relationship can be one of those moments that define who you become. They can leave you feeling frightened, abused or even hopeless. Instead of leaving her scarred...

"Let's keep in touch." "We'll figure something out." "I might be able to." "This week is kind of tough!" And my personal favorite, "I'll let you know."

Sometimes it's genuine! Scenario: It's Friday afternoon and you're working a nine-hour day at the office. You look at your...

Why are you so skinny? You look emaciated. You should eat more. What's wrong with you?

I'm thin, and I have been thin my whole life. I'm little, small, tiny and every other adjective you can think of to describe a thin person.

Unfortunately I have also been told I'm...

Regardless of your age, gender, religion or geographic location, we have all at some point encountered a truly nasty woman. The type of woman who judges you, who demoralizes you and who has no regard for your feelings. It starts early for some, as early as elementary school, and it...

The year I first moved to Manhattan, was the year Gossip Girl premiered on television. I was infatuated with this fabricated lifestyle, that I would be able to run around the city eating at amazing restaurants and wearing the very best in designer clothes, all while getting good grades in...

There are a lot of products out there. A whole lot of websites. A lot of gimmicks, Groupons, photographers, and commercials for lipstick that allegedly lasts 16 hours. Flipping through the pages of a bridal magazine, or even your favorite fashion one can leave you more confused than calmed. Also,...

When my boyfriend got down on one knee, on a rainy night back in January, no one warned me about the long and isolated road that lay in front of me. He and I had only been dating six months when I came home to a giant box of Red...
