There is apparently some government investigation called Operation Ghostbusters. I don’t know much about it, but I do know that the name has now taken on a whole new life in my head. I was lying on an ultrasound table recently, when the technician’s Spotify playlist decided to […]
Somewhere in Florida, a woman was heading home from a Halloween party at 4 a.m. dressed as a banana when she witnessed a car crash. Naturally, she did the responsible thing and called the police. And just like that, she became an internet sensation. A banana hero, if […]
October may be shaping up to be epic. Five Fridays. FIVE. Five opportunities to sigh dramatically at the end of the workweek and declare, I have survived another one. And five Saturdays! Five glorious little permission slips to sleep, rest, party, wander, do absolutely nothing, or do everything […]
Have you ever liked a villain more than the hero? Who and why? I have a confession. I often like the villains more than the heroes. Not all villains. Some are just terrible people with excellent lighting. The truly sadistic, one-dimensional villains who enjoy torturing puppies and explaining […]

Halloween. The one night where you can be anything or anyone—and have an absolutely legit reason to dig through the attic, the closet, and perhaps even the cobwebbed depths of your imagination. No, I’m not talking about a midnight snacking mission for last year’s stale candy corn. I […]
Ah, Halloween – that yearly “spectacle” where creativity takes center stage, and candy reigns supreme. As the night draws near, the air buzzes with the excitement of finding the ultimate costume, decking the halls with spookiness, and relishing the sweet treats that fill our pumpkin-shaped pails. It’s a […]
