PSA: if I happen to say “Gulf of Mexico” in passing and you hold up your hand and say, “um, actually? It’s the Gulf of America,” I will literally separate your head from the rest of your body.

Seriously.

If you look at RFK Jr and think, “Yeah, he’s totally capable and competent and not the least bit unhinged,” then you’re as fucked up as he is.

Seriously.

Ugh…Goosebumps: The Vanishing might be some of the worst TV I’ve seen in a while. Like, right from the start when it’s supposed to be summer and there are no leaves on the trees and it’s obviously cold by the steam coming out of everyone’s mouth…it doesn’t get any better. Awfully written junk.

My October Symphony by Pet Shop Boys is a perfect Friday night fireside jam…

Snow is coming down hard. Just cooked a phenomenal filet mignon, garlic mashed, and Montepulciano sauce…devoured it. Now fireside with a cocktail and tunes…

Why yes, I do believe another vodka tonic is a good idea…

I absolutely love an impending snow storm…make sure your food, wood, and booze supplies are laid in, get a little work done tomorrow, then sit back and enjoy the beauty of nature as she reminds you who is in charge. I’m here for it…

I’m thankful for: my sons are home, a safe & festive holiday, 2 new movies I’m in debuting in 2025, I’ve just been cast in another, new books coming soon, my podcast is kicking ass, trusted friends, and dropping dead weight anchors that have been holding me back. Charging forward, getting it done.

Doing a bit of decorating as I anxiously await the arrival of my eldest from NYC. ❤️

This week's episode of The Other Side of Midnight @tosompodcast.bsky.social is going to be something. The true crime portion alone is creepy AF. Can't wait to drop this at 12:01AM EST Friday (or Thanksgiving night if you're up making a midnight turkey sandwich, lol)

Well, it’s official: I *still* hate dumbbell thrusters…

Lots of changes in 2025. Cutting loose ends, cutting things that don't serve, contracting the circle to a few trusted individuals, focused on creating kick-ass content (movies, podcasts, books & more) and savoring more of life with precious souls.
