Read My New Column On MTV Buzzworthy!

After a bunch of months being cooped up in my apartment, I’ve finally decided to join the land of the living. Truth be told, I wasn’t exactly cooped up. I was slaving away on Geek Girls Unite and I loved/hated every minute of it. (Who am I kidding? Mostly loved.) On a related note, GGU is available for pre-order on Amazon. Reserve your copy NOW! I’m also pleased to introduce a new column I’ll be writing for MTV Buzzworthy. It’s called Soundtrack Of My Life and it’ll be a weekly playlist compiled by yours truly. Click here—or on the lovely logo below—and read my inaugural column, which just so happens to be about Dudes In…

A Few Of My Favor!te Things

When my amazing publisher asked me to contribute to their annual Favor!te Things list, I immediately jumped at the chance. Well, actually, I hopped carefully. See, I recently slipped in my kitchen and have a huge black and blue mark across the left side of my body, so I’m really in no shape to jump wildly. If you’re interested in knowing what movies, music and memes I was ob-sessed with in 2010, then hoof it over to YourItList.com. Careful, though. I don’t have that many ice packs to go around.  

In Case You Were Wondering

This is what it looks like to press “send” on the last year of your life. Lucky for you, my thick-rimmed glasses hide the tote-sized bags under my eyes. I don’t know why, but my (possibly blind) friend Rachel thinks I look smokin’. Oh, yes. I’m a true vision of beauty… And by “beauty,” I mean “sleep deprivation, wild mood swings and crippling anxiety.” I need to bottle that shit and sell it at Sephora. I’d make a killing!

“Live From New York City… It’s Me!”

Please forgive me for being totally MIA—complete with neon leggings and an inexplicable hatred for red-haired little boys. After weeks of living out of a suitcase and working my buns off, I’m slowly but surely making my way back into the land of the living. I found a wonderful apartment that actually fits all of my crap, which is tres unusual by NYC standards, and I’m hoping to be unpacked sometime before Christmas. (Fingers crossed!) Now that I finally have a permanent address in the City, I’m looking forward to establishing a normal routine, learning the bus system and, most importantly, going back to work on Geek Girls Unite! My batteries are totally recharged and…

Welcoming You To Cardboard City

After nearly two months of being a traveling gypsy (kind of like Stevie Nicks, minus the scarves and copious amounts of cocaine), I finally moved into my new NYC digs yesterday. I just realized that I moved out of my L.A. apartment exactly two months ago to the day. Weird.

It’s All Finally Happening

I saw the craziest thing happen when I was walking down Fairfax this afternoon. I’m not sure what happened before I got to the scene, but it looked like two women were exchanging numbers because of an obvious fender-bender. One woman then drives away and the other, utterly peeved, walks back to her car and pulls her car door open with the strength of 1,000 men. Unfortunately for her, she opened it right into the back of a tow truck. Oof! I’m not sure why I felt like sharing that pointless anecdote but it’s was definitely a signature L.A. moment. Shit like that happens all the time here. I’m just lucky—knock on wood—that it hasn’t…
