GlamGaming Review: #WiiU

When Nintendo says ‘hey, how about we throw a WiiU party at your house, for your friends?’ you try to act calm as you scream “OH YES PLEASE!” We have had the WiiU for about a month already and almost instantly the other gaming systems in our house (the original Wii, Playstation and even an [...]

The experience streamlining continues. Farewell Reader.

Listen up kids. Let me tell you a little story about the blogging explosion. The year was 2007 and blogging was going from ‘that thing techy people did’ to main stream. Programs like Blogger made it easy and free to have a blog up in MINUTES. And everyone under the sun- thought ‘hey I want [...]

Seth Godin is in my backyard.

I am proud to serve on an advisory board for LinkedOC. A 5000+ member strong organization that brings great minds and business leaders to my backyard (Orange County). And this Friday- we have the amazing Seth Godin. We have a few seats left and if you are in OC, do not miss this opportunity. This [...]

The Pope has left the building.

The boys had some questions for me about Pope Benedict’s resignation. And as much as it was an easy comedy target (especially since I am not a Catholic) but instead- I wanted them to see what an incredibly cool thing it all was. Not being a Catholic (in fact I had to look up the [...]

Disneyland’s Club 33: Come inside with me

Fifteen years ago it seemed like a perfectly good idea to get married the week after Valentines Day. I  never once thought ‘hey that will kinda be yucky each year to have them so close together’…nope I was all ‘HECK YEAH I AM GETTING MARRIED!’ So I went and got married after a crazy year [...]

How to be friends with someone who works in PR

I admit it, being friends with me can be annoying, confusing and challenging. And that is a revelation that occurred long before I started working for a PR agency. (For starters? I don’t hug, I may email you at 2am and assume you are awake and I post a large amount of photos of my [...]

Why Hillary’s hair matters to me.

“Hey Red how are you?” I hear that all the time.  I am convinced it is because people can’t remember my name -which would actually better than the possible reality- that when people look at me, all they see is giant RED HAIR. But you see- I am torn. My red hair is a part [...]

What to say to a working mom

I have been watching as a few co-workers and friends have their first child and learn to find balance between their paying jobs  and their unpaying jobs at home. It is mega hard. The organizational skills alone are award-worthy. But we figure it out. We plan, have calendars and to-do lists up the ying-yang. We [...]

2013: Uncomfortable

I don’t do resolutions. Well I mean I do- but not at New Years. I resolve to do things all year long. Weekly, monthly. I am a work in progress. But there is this thing, that probably has its origins with some self-help guru, about picking one word each year and making that your ‘goal’. [...]

The Dresses of Golden Globe. (alternate title: When rich people make bad choices. And then go on TV to show them off.)

For just one second, let’s pretend I am one of those bitchy fashion reporters. Not the face to face ones- but the ones that write things from their sofa wearing yoga pants and an old Beastie Boys t-shirt. Go on, suspend belief. Then consider I don’t know who half these people are….and don’t care either. [...]
