One of three jerseys I own.

This weekend, besides being the 10th anniversary of 9/11, was the start of football season. Let’s cover our bases: I’m a New York Giants fan. Why? Because I grew up an hour outside New York. Because my dad’s fan. Because I have been since I could think: Football rocks. Memories: I remember being too young [...]

What a National Lazy Day looks like.

I like to start stuff. Not just fights. In December, I declared a National Coffee Day. IVs in by 8 a.m. and don’t stop until the shakes. I declared National Sweatpants Day in January. Then I got multiple tweets asking if yoga pants counted. I deliberated with my team of crackin’ marketers, also known as [...]
