Why is it still okay to make fun of fat people? And, why am I shocked that it is still so prevalent? A father of a friend of mine, who happens to be a Facebook friend, posted a scathing article about flying next to a fat person. He then commented about the horror of sitting… Continue reading Not a Headless Fatty

More Than 300 Pounds?
I have tried to write a blog about this a couple of times over the past couple of months. What I ended up with was a bunch of half finished ramblings that I just couldn’t complete. (Honestly, this one has been sitting in my drafts for weeks…) I have been having a bit of an… Continue reading More Than 300 Pounds?
Better Than The Alternative
Okay, how many blog posts am I going to start and then “Save Draft” only to never finish them? Yeah, it’s a rhetorical question that has no answer. I guess there is an answer – MANY. I feel like the word “interesting” is overused when describing life. And, yet, my life has been filled with… Continue reading Better Than The Alternative
The Wheel of Death
I know, I know. Where have I been? A friend called me the other day and said, “Do you realize your last blog entry was October 26, 2010!?” Yes, I know. I know. John and I used to have annual passes to Disneyland. We would go all the time. … Continue reading The Wheel of Death

Over the past year or so I have been spoiled by… Continue reading The Luxor, the Celebrity Chef, the Comedian and the Fat Girl
You Have Such A Pretty Face
That is the killer line that a lot of fat women get. Even the ones that don’t have a pretty face hear that. It’s always said with the inference being, “but it’s a damn shame about the rest of you!” But that is never said. Okay, it’s rarely said. You… Continue reading You Have Such A Pretty Face
Hollywood Forever
When I ditched my life in San Diego to follow and pursue my dreams of being an actor, writer and comedian I had no idea what was ahead of me. When I look back now it is hard to believe I have done all that I have done. I am definitely grateful for… Continue reading Hollywood Forever
New Amsterdam to Old Amsterdam
I arrived in New Amsterdam yesterday morning. Tuesday morning rather. I am a bit confused on what time or day it is. The redeye was crazy from LAX to JFK. It was supposed to be “wide open” and it wasn’t. Lots of last minute travelers got on that flight. … Continue reading New Amsterdam to Old Amsterdam
