This week Barbara King, Heels in the Hills' resident mommy blogger, is sharing her tips on back to school gear. These are WAY cooler than the wheelie backpack I dragged around like I was about to board a plane (not hit debate team practice)... Here are her picks on the best school swag to snag before the 1st day!View Article

Anyone else as obsessed with "Bad Moms" as I am? Tony and I recently saw it with some friends a week ago, and I keep thinking about it. Working in comedy, we can be a bit cynical (and/or jealous) of what's getting made, and we usually opt for thrillers, dramas or thriller/drama TV shows because those are just pure entertainment to us, and we're not comparing ourselves and our work to them. But I left this one feeling inspired, and excited to work on my own scripts again. It was SO GOOD.View Article
Sorry this gratitude list is coming in so late, I had an audition in Santa Monica that turned into a day-long road trip! (For real. 11 miles in Los Angeles is like visiting a different state. Man, L.A. traffic jokes are so original, right?!) (Also, I didn't write it this morning because I overslept, and prioritized showering and eating year-old wedding cake that we defrosted a week ago. I hope I don't die.) This week, I am grateful that my foot is finally feeling better after spraining my ankle last Saturday, and also that it's given me an excuse to spend most of my time in bed, eating. I'm also grateful that while I was drunk the other night, my friend convinced me to sign up for a half-marathon in November, which will give me an excuse to exercise again once my foot doesn't look like a rotting eggplant. (Hope you enjoyed that visual!) I haven't ever run more than 7 miles, so we'll see how that goes. Maybe I'll wear a diaper like ultra-marathoners! This weekend, I'm looking forward to more eating in bed and some low-key hangs with friends. HAPPY FRIDAY! Here are the other things making me happy right now...View Article
"Back to School" season gives me anxiety. Even though I don't HAVE to go back to school ever again (although every time I cry about my career, my parents suggest grad school!) - I still get that feeling of dread in my stomach. I usually faced my fears by doing something crazy like perming my hair, spray tanning only my legs, or getting an eyebrow wax (that ripped the skin off along with the hair.) But luckily, my bestie/best mom Barbara King LOVES back to school season, and is establishing a much healthier (and Pinterest-worthy) approach to her daughter starting kindergarten with THE CUTEST study nook...View Article
11 months ago, I wrote about all of the things I learned in the 1st month of marriage. Yesterday, Tony and I celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary! So now, here are the things I learned in the 1st year of being newlyweds... (YOU GUYS, I'm gonna milk this opportunity to keep talking about our wedding for all it's worth!)View Article
