In the beginning...

11 months and 3 days ago, I packed up my Toyota Prius and headed west for Hollywood. It was quite a journey to get there. Years of preparation, eight days of a cross-country marathon drive, and a last stretch of highway with no GPS because it decided to die on the morning of my last travel day.

I have a little pin in my car that says, "Never Drive Faster than your Guardian Angel can fly." Well, my angel can obviously drive pretty fast because I was pushing 100 mph on a daily basis.

My guardian angel has a devilish sense of humor. She gets me in enough trouble to keep my life interesting, but never lets things get too out of hand...well, almost never.

Hollywood is a crazy place. Some people here are artists, some people are lunatics, and most of us are a little bit of both.

Being a young "slashie" in Los Angeles (actress/writer/singer/aspiring producer/temporary-job-holder-extraordinaire) is never dull, often difficult, and a comic gold mine, although of course sometimes it takes a few moments to find the funny in certain situations.

In this blog, I invite you to come along with me as I teeter along the precarious tightrope that separates comedy and disaster that all of us here in Hollywood seem to be walking.

I'll share my foibles and fits and starts, the things that make me laugh, the things that keep me sane, my favorites on the music and arts scene, my opinions, my musings, and my moving violations.

Thanks for reading :)
