'Tis the Season




Hey there Blog Watchers! Sorry it has been so long since my last posting. I went to Ann Arbor, MI to celebrate thanksgiving with some of my family. My sister Mary, my brother-in-law Ken, and their 3 kids (Magda 9, Elinor 5, and Liam 2) hosted a wonderful holiday. In attendance were my father, my brother, Mike, and his new wife, Shannon, and my brother, Tim, and his life partner, Sascha, and their new son, Leo. There was a lot of great food, drink, discussion and debate. We took several jaunts into bustling downtown Ann Arbor, a few of us went ice skating at a local rink and we even put on Elinor's version of American Idol. Quite fun. Thanks to Mary and Ken for hosting the event. Mary has been fighting a nasty case of something so it was even more of a feat for her. We tried to be as much help as possible with the kids. They're a handful!


I will be back on the East Coast for the holidays. My Aunt Julie generously offered me a flight home using her frequent flyer miles. I will be flying in to Newark on Dec. 18th and fly back to LA on January 7th. 3 whole weeks! I can't wait. I hope to see lots of friends and family in that time. I will be going to Maine on Dec. 21, 22 and 23 to visit my Mom for Christmas. Then, I will be in Bethel for Chritmas Eve and I think in NYC with my brother Tim and Sascha's (his partner) family on Christmas Day. I am thinking about going to Boston for New Years but that is not set in stone. We shall see.


I just found a video of the Fuel for Life commercial that I dubbed this fall in NYC. Its pretty hilarious to hear my voice come out of a european model's mouth. I couldn't embed it here but I've included a link. Enjoy.

I am also trying to put together some footage from Michigan for the blog. Check back soon for that.





Here is the address to watch the commercial. You need to cut and paste it in your browser.

Portland, OR!

Portland, OR


Hey there, Blog Readers!

I wish life was more exciting and I had more things to blog about. Sorry. I got back from Portland, OR on Sunday. That city is amazing. I really liked it. It is really clean and has such a good energy. There are so many different neighborhoods, each with their own vibe. And tons of great restaurants. I wish I had more time to try them. My friends Jesse and his fiance Silvana gave me the grand tour. We got to spend the day with their amazing son, Silas. Quite a bundle of joy! I also got to visit my friend John and his Wing Shack he recently opened. Delicious Wings.

To see pictures from the trip just click on the picture of me on the plane.

Hey Blog Watchers! I got cheap flight on Priceline, so I am flying to Portland, OR. The road trip will have to wait. I'll still try to video blog though.

Talk to you soon!

Exciting News!



Hey Blog Watchers! I've got some sad news and some exciting news. First, sad. I drove Celia to LAX this morning so she could catch a flight back to NYC. Boo. She has to go back to do a workshop of "Saved", the musical she is doing in the spring at Playwrights Horizons. I miss her already. Having her here was like having 100 friends!

Exciting news. I think my wanderlust has gotten the better of me. I am thinking that for my big birthday this weekend I am going to visit my two best friends from high school, John and Jesse, in Portland, OR. I will be stopping on the way in San Francisco to visit my other best friend from high school Jeremy.

ROAD TRIP TIME! Get ready for some video blogs!

I MISS CELIA!

Movin' on In!

Hey Blog Watchers! So, we arrived Tuesday night and have been trying to get settled these last few days. The fires created some incredibly bad smog up in these parts but we are okay. Hopefully others in southern cali will soon have their lives back to normal.

We couldn't ignore the desperate pleas to not stop blogging; so here y'all are! Enjoy!
