Below are links to my favorite posts in my favorite categories with a little summary of what they’re all about. If you’re incredibly ambitious or just curious, you can find my very first post here.
Ballerinas Take to the New York City Streets Two ballet dancers performing full ballet in the middle of Columbus Circle in January. The pinnacle of street performance, and I captured it on camera.
Get Outta My Pants! I ride the subway, in the middle of January, wearing no pants. Yes, that means I’m out in Manhattan only in little pink panties.
Spring is Here! Take a Walk in Central Park Glorious early spring, the park is bursting with colorful flowers and I am bursting with excitement at the end of winter. Beautiful pictures in this one.
A 20-Something in a Toy Store A trip to iconic toy store FAO Schwarz- equal parts fun and birth control.
A Date with My Elementary School Nemesis I found myself on a date with a handsome sailor who, 20 years ago, pulled my pigtails and called me names.
The Safa Boy Series The long story of my “fling” with a nineteen year-old South African traveler. Need I say it ended badly?
Picked Up on a Park Bench It is my first full day living in NYC and I get picked up while reading on a park bench in Central Park.
My Life as a Chick Lit Blurb My first adult break up and Sex and the City paralells.
New Way to Walk I strike up a conversation with a guy on the street simply because he has a banjo strapped to his back. Turns out he’s cute.
Maid in Manhattan An incredible fun interactive theatre gig where I played the part of an endearing-but-bloody-looney cockney maid who, instead of cleaning, peers into the bald spots of men and thinks she sees their future.
Security for the Stars Imagine me, looking like an idiot in a 2XXL t-shirt, working “security” at a gala opening with the likes of Steve Martin, Cynthia Nixon, and James Franco.
Mr. Groff, My New Best Friend For 15 minutes Jonathan Groff, Broadway’s golden boy and recent Glee guest star, and I are best friends.
Political Theatre (sans Brecht) Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea Clinton make an appearance at the show I am ushering for.
Models: Beauty on the Outside, Bitchy on the Inside Imagine me, the one “brand ambassador” surrounded by four models; bitches who confirm all stereotypes about their kind.
Working the Streets Times Square is my office, the Naked Cowboy & Co my co-workers.
Frankenstein is My Friend Among other things, I make friends with Frankenstein and tell Mary Louise Parker to put down her umbrella.
She Works Hard (or not) for the Money The random promotions and events I work can be very funny and almost always make for better stories than if I waited tables
