Whenever I’ve been told before that I look like Sharon Stone, I think two things: 1.) 90’s version? Or now version? and 2.) Is my chick biscuit covered? View post on imgur.com Yes, it is nice, Sharon. But what’s not nice is when it throws an eye surprise party for everyone, like the infamous LiLo committing fanny arson while exiting a car and stepping straight onto the pages of the.. Read More
#30daysofnewthings: the heartest challenge yet?
“I’ve got something you can do for your 30 Days…” my physical therapist told me. Despite my 100% reverence for him, I admittedly wanted to eyeroll. Or smirk. Or both, I’m not sure which. We were both in one’a those “mid-week” kinda moods. But for him, I imagine, it was even more frustrating. After all, I hadn’t been in in two weeks, my spine and hips were all misaligned, and..

Does your occipital lobe hold cosmic knowledge?
Pulp Fiction’s gansta wasn’t doing any kinda gansta-ass-shiz when he had his aha moment. In fact, it was sandwiched between two such events (dumping a body and sticking up stick up kids) during brunch. View post on imgur.com Much like most of the epiphanies in this movie which muse on about the philosophy of small-fortune milkshakes and what they call cheeseburgers in other parts of the world, it seemed to..

What we can learn from the Yellowstone wolf eco-effect
So, I just saw this amazing vid on the Yellowstone effect that happened when they added just one species to the mix. The idea was that all these animals were wandering around in this near-dystopian land. A buncha the bastards were eating up all the shrubbery, grazing the landscape away, and making the national park look like a flora infested outdoor crack house. Then, like some magical just-add-water answer, they.. Read More
Cure for Alzheimer’s? Can I volunteer my makers as tribute?
A popular scripture goes: In the beginning there was sound. That’s the actual translation – sound, vibration, logos, word. All samesies. But, now, thanks to recent research, it may serve as a reboot “in the end” as well – for Alzheimer’s patients. Great news. (Since my pop’s one ask-me-the-same-question-twice-in-5-minutes away from the nursing home I applied to work at.) I sat down to watch a documentary recently called “The Memory.. Read More
What I’d eat from McD’s (if I were 127 hours style starving.)
When a friend posted this… … I did what’s common for people like me: try to guess what they said, give up on guessing what they said, decide what I’d choose to eat at McD’s if forced to, and not read the article at all before commenting exactly that list to said friend. Said comment list went something like this: Haven’t read it yet – but these are the 5.. Read More
Life- anxious? Settle down by not settling.
As I sat in traffic coming from an interview out on one of Saturn’s rings yesterday, I realized something. More like a reminder, really. I suddenly understood why so many people have drinking problems and recalled why I myself used to consistently enlist the assistance of valium to survive another night on earth as we know it. I mean, Jesus. When I was working outta the home before, I had.. Read More
Monica Lewinsky gave TED oration.
A.) How has no one else used my title as clickbait yet? B.) Monica Lewinsky? Doing… a TED talk? (This is my new “Chloe at Disneyland”. You’re welcome.) Now, I try to be open minded when it comes to hearing what people have to say. So, when I heard that Monica Lewinksy’d done a talk for TED, I tried my hardest to curb the eyeroll and hear her out. Unfortunately,.. Read More
Why Kat Von D should hire me to add to her “Underage Red” lipstick collection.
Kat Von D (who admittedly knows her way around an eyeshadow palette) is in the shit today. And why? Cuzza some name she gave one of her lipsticks: “Underage Red”. Terrible right? I mean, here she has this killer collection with the likes of a lip pigment called “Lolita” in it, and she settles for “Underage Red”? Actually, I suppose that my problem isn’t that she called it that –.. Read More
Trifecta Friday: three celestial events I’mma photograph
After sitting on the windy dock late last night for ages, I resigned myself to the cold (literally) truth. I’d been trolled. I wasn’t gonna see an aurora. That might sound like old news, considering the fact that I live in Northern VA; a few latitude lines short’a borealis qualification – usually. However, yesterday, I was informed via the trustworthy media that we geographic peons the celestial princess of pink.. Read More
