Honestly, I didn’t do it on purpose. I was just so angry about the situation…I mean, for what we pay…we deserve better! So I don’t really have too many passionate causes in life, but I’m now on a one man crusade to get Whole Foods Market to take a better look at the management of their perishable food products. This is pretty first world, but … Continue reading Trolling Whole Foods
10 years ago, I hopped into my VW Jetta and made my way to Los Angeles with my ride or die Samantha and Lindsey (yes, I named my Garmin GPS). It was my first cross country trip and we saw everything from America to ‘Murica. From a Wendy’s in Kentucky where I was asked what my wife would be eating (apparently women in the South … Continue reading A Decade Later
“The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and the beauty in the world.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald My soul is awaken whenever I make a trip back home to “the city”. I am very fortunate to be able to come back here as much as I do … Continue reading Hometown Glory
July is a new month for me and I wanted to challenge myself a bit. I don’t have much going on these days being that it’s summer and I work in education. I was browsing on Instagram after one of my Barry’s Bootcamp classes and noticed that a bunch of the trainers are fitness influencers with thousands of followers. I’m going to try to do … Continue reading Quest for 5K
I found my travel journal the other night and decided to take a quick read while working on some physical therapy exercises – to be fair, it’s just one exercise where I lay on my stomach. The journal is something I carry with me whenever I travel abroad just so I can jot down thoughts and memories of what happened. It’s not something I really … Continue reading Auckland
I’m going to put this out there, I don’t enjoy working out. In fact, I hate exercising. I do it though, frequently because you’re supposed to. Somehow, it’s become a societal norm that in order to stay healthy, you need to exercise. However, I do subscribe to the notion that you feel the way you look and if you want to have a good work … Continue reading Athleisure
July 4th falling on a Wednesday is quite the shame. Those who have more of the traditional work schedules all of a sudden do not have a 3 or 4 day weekend. On top of that, you need to monitor that consumption to make it to work the next day. Still, it is one of my favorite holidays. In fact, I love all the summer … Continue reading The LA BBQ and Celebrating ‘Murica
If I had to give advice to any new homeowner or anyone looking to buy a place…CHECK YOUR AC UNIT! As we begin to experience record heat, I cannot stress this enough. Last year, during a heat wave, my AC broke. Like – straight up just died. Of course, it happened this very weekend (4th of July) and getting anyone to come fix an AC … Continue reading AC Check
I was shooting hoops yesterday and had a nerd moment. I was trying to figure out at what moment I learned how to play basketball. Like at what point did I learn how to hit a jump shot. Was it just something that happened naturally from growing up in New York City? That must be it right? All the parks out there with hoops and … Continue reading Basketball Dreams
I’ve been back in NYC the past couple days visiting family. I was riding the subway and found myself at such an ease. I never realized how frustrated I was with the LA metro. As a New Yorker, public transit etiquette this is something we’re trained to handle – as well as the occasional sexual assault, but that’s a different story. I know the concept … Continue reading The LA Metro
