Obama Rocks!

Obama practices!

I can’t let this day go by without acknowledging the awesomeness of President Obama. I remember the before-the-election- naysayers warning us that his “style” of dealing with the world wouldn’t be strong enough and —  man, did he prove them wrong! Read the rest of this entry »

Romance = Unexpected Connections

shell we? ahaha!

An unexpected connection is the best kind of all. Especially when it’s an unexpected connection with someone you’ve wanted to connect with, but wondered if you ever would. An ordinary night becomes extraordinary. A smile means oh so much more. And you realize when you’re following through with something you need to do, (sometimes) your own needs are surprisingly fulfilled too. Uh huh uh huh.

Don’t want to get into details ‘cuz like with an audition if you talk too much about it before it’s really a sure thing, it can go…  POOF! Read the rest of this entry »

A Girl’s Essentials (part 1, hair)

So, as an actress, a blonde, a fashionista, a GIRL — I’ve obviously been on what feels like a life-long quest for the perfect beauty products. Ideally, good and expensive don’t have to go hand in hand, but I’ve spent an obscene amount of money to prove that to myself. And it’s true, some looks don’t have to cost $$$ to be fabulous.

There are a few times where you should just cough up the money and look at it as an investment. I mean, you really can’t put a price on perfectly imperfect hair, or a flawless “non-makeup” complexion that may in fact, involve 15 different products and a solid half hour of skillful application.

Fear of blogging

The blog.

Blogging.

Blugh.

The first problem I have is just the word blog itself. Does that word really encourage people to want to write? To be creative? To share? Blog blog blog. The more you say it, the more you hate it. Sounds like it should be the name of like a dirty pond or a growth on your foot. But regardless, Josh says blog, so here I go… blogging.  (Doesn’t the word make you want some mouthwash?)

Perhaps it’s not the word that upsets me, but more the idea of actually intentionally sharing my thoughts with someone, be it a stranger or someone I actually know. I mean, at this point in my life…

Sorry, I lost my train of thought when I looked down at my mom’s Cartier LOVE bracelet and saw a scratch that looked like the side of a car after someone keyed it. I just finished doing the dishes and I gasped thinking that I might have scraped it across the sink in my rare moment of productivity.

if only it was really this pretty

Thankfully it was just a blonde hair stuck to the wet bracelet.

Whew! Close one.

I almost let it out…

EDIT — Hey, thanks JA! Nice picture you found for me. So once you tell me how to do that, it’ll liven things up around here, no?

here’s your new blog, Evie!

Josh tells me to do it, I must do it. Sorry take it up with him. I will try to make it as painless as possible. Between calls, I might be done by the time he’s out of the screening tonight. All you will need to do is type a post. Or text from your phone, tweet, etc etc. You must admit when he’s right he’s right.

Here is your page, your categories, everything. Hope you like it. I could have had the agency I-T guy code a real hot flash site but HE said “K.I.S.S.” and he didn’t mean it nice.

So this is your first my first post.  Have fun Evie, it’s not as hard as it you think it is and you’ll get hooked on it. At least until the movie comes out.
