In my completely uneducated viewpoint, I think the toughest part of the job for a morning news anchor is the “banter-laughter-to-serious-story” transition. It usually happens at the top of the hour of morning news programs like “the Today Show” or “Good Morning America” and the like. Typically the morning news team is talking about segments …

Boring Dreams
Usually when I dream, it’s pretty out-there. I once had a dream where I was in a subway station and all the walls were collapsing, but I wasn’t scared, and everything I’d touch would change into some bright, luminescent color. I had another dream where I was a trolley driver in an abandoned city where …
What’s Cooking?
When people ask me what I cook at home for dinner, I never know how to answer. It’s not because I don’t know what I eat. It’s that I don’t know if what I do these days is considered “cooking.” In a previous life, I used to be a pretty good cook. I would cook …

Maybe it’s something about the perceived safety of anonymity of the internet that emboldens them. I don’t know. This is a series of messages I exchanged with an anonymous teenage admirer …
Ten Truly Random Facts About Me

Imagine my surprise when I saw these statistics on my xanga site tonight. On a good day, I get maybe 100 footprints – and mostly from people I already know. I found out it was because I was on the front home page of xanga again, but this time my “Choose Your Own Adventure” story …
Can’t Sleep
It’s almost 4:30AM and I’m wide awake. Lying in bed just waiting to get sleepy is just making me feel frustrated. You know that semi-panic that sets in knowing that you have to go to work in a few hours but you’re not falling asleep? So I took something… I’m not going to say what …
Ode to My Ugly Shoes
O shoes so ugly and so wornMy smelly feet you do adornFor years you sat there so forlornYou never asked to be so abused. I bought you that day, all the while knowingThat only for work you’d ever be goingThen daily into the corner, you I’d be throwingYet Sundays and weddings you’d never be used. All these …
