Call her Esther: That’s the Hebrew name Madonna has chosen for herself as a follower of Kabbalah. – excerpt from an AP story on Madonna’s latest announcement. Um, yeah. The “material girl” now shares a name with my deceased grandmother. And now I’ve got visions of Gramdma kissing Britney Spears, humping the floor, and shooting [...]
[show teeth]Grrrr….[/show teeth] I’m drastically losing patience with people today. I’ve learned the fine art of snapping at work and it’s been fun. Dumb Co-Worker #1: Hey, when’s the ad deadline for the July issue? Me: Okay, listen closely. The ad deadline was on the 15th – as is clearly indicated on the editorial calendar [...]
I just came from the first meeting of our brand new Las Vegas chapter of the National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association. We had about 10 members present and we elected officers for the chapter and briefly discussed where we’d like to take the group in the future – all boring stuff. What made the [...]
Today was one of those days when I just felt “on.” My story writing was flowing, the topics I was researching were interesting and everything seemed to go well. Most of today was spent researching an article on the nightclubs and other gay businesses planning to open in Las Vegas this year. I’ve been getting [...]

I have been watching this Kenya Ad all day and laughing until it hurts. Cutest. Thing. Ever!
I eat too much Taco Bell. Yesterday, on the way home from work, I stopped by the Taco Bell closest to my home. My favorite TB employee was working the register at the drive-thru. More disturbing than the fact that I have a favorite is the fact that he knows it. He’s this skinny latino [...]
I just finished reading Gregory Maguire’s Lost and I was a little disappointed in it. I really loved Wicked, so I was hoping to be impressed. I had guessed at the mystery subtext long before he started dropping the big hints. It did have some interesting points, though, such as Winifred’s musings that a modern [...]

I must have been working for my magazine for over two years before I started actually referring to myself as a “journalist.” I don’t know why it’s so difficult to associate myself with terms like “reporter” and “media” – it is an accurate description of my career. Part of it is, I assume, my stronger [...]
