I’ve been watching my favorite shows (The Pitt, 9-1-1, and The Last of Us) and they’ve been delivering. I also picked up a book for the first time in forever and WOW, I forgot how good reading is. Like why did no one tell me?? Then, what was supposed to be a quick story turns into a ful...

I start with some life updates—still recovering from being sick, but that hasn’t stopped me from binge-watching The Traitors on Paramount+ (I finis...

This week, I’m powering through the absolute worst nasal congestion of my life—so if you make it through this episode, you’re a real one.
