Easter Weekend Fun

Friday: I went to see Furious7 with RJH at a packed theater in Williamsburg. It did not disappoint! I laughed, I cheered and yes – I cried a bit. Now I want to go back and watch the previous six then find my way back to a theater to watch (what is hope is) the…

Happy Anniversary to Me

Can you believe it’s been over a year already? Its seems like was a just a couple of months ago that two suitcases and I boarded a flight for the other coast. I landed in JFK, dropped those two pieces of luggage off at my new home and went straight to BW3 to watch the…

Your Man Reminder

A friend of mine sent this to me. I was so hilarious that I had to share – and yes, the app is real, and YES, I downloaded it. Whatever it takes to spread the word, fellas! I just wish the guys were a bit older – I find that age appropriate gentlemen are exponentially…
