A lot has been going on lately, so I needed my usual mode of relaxation – a day at the beach. I arrived late, around 3ish on 9th Street to check out the Beach Ball Festival. I walked around to get a feel for it, and it was alright. But I really couldn’t wait to [...]

There is a newish Indian restaurant in town, open only 6 or so months, called ISHQ located on 530 Ocean drive. I had walked by once with a friend and we had mentioned that we needed, at some point, to try it. We scratched our heads thinking of other Indian restaurants on the beach but [...]

I know I’ve been slacking these past few days. I’ve been running around like a maniac trying to see family and friends I haven’t seen in a year. Thursday night was a LOT of fun, and I must tell you all about it. Friday I went to CT and crashed by 8pm. Saturday more running [...]

I have always liked New York but it wasn’t until I finally arrived that I realized how much I miss it here.
It was an easy flight up, pugga was well behaved on the plane thanks to Children’s Benadryl, which she wouldn’t eat I assume because it’s not beef flavored but grape so I had [...]

Alas! No one said I could do it but it’s done.
Before moving down here from NYC I went through my things as I packed, clothes, kitchenware, shoes, electronics, CDs, DVDs, books, furniture, and donated all of it to the people who worked in my building. It still cost me $1,500 to move the rest [...]

Can anyone tell me why the hell has The Waverly not yet changed their massive clock to reflect the correct time for Daylight Savings?? I mean, the time change occurred over a month ago. Why hasn’t a building that charges approximately $600 a month in maintenance fees per unit, with over 200 units hasn’t managed [...]

My mom had me at the stove learning how to cook by the time I was eight years old. I remember she would play something with high energy, usually Samba. Our kitchen was well ventilated, bright with sunlight, and cool from the breeze. She used to give me a stool to stand on by her [...]
