Welcome to the Westside

Good Morning Westsiders.

The sun is trying to shine, despite the fact that it is June and the sun never shines in June, but I am going to take advantage of the few remaining clouds to kick off this site.

For those of you who don’t know me, I am a twenty  (omg) thirty-something year old girl living in Santa Monica – and this is the year that I decided to get my act together. You know, I formed an actual corporation and hired a corporate attorney, I found a real accountant and stopped doing my taxes at H&R Block, I started therapy and acupuncture in addition to yoga and hiking to find some semblance of balance in my life, and I cut out almost all meat, dairy, gluten and sugar from my diet – so naturally, starting a blog was only a few pressed juices away. I am as cliched SoCal westside as they come.

I’ve been married (sort-of) and divorced (sort-of), I am in a (sort-of) relationship which is truly non-traditional for the rest of the country but somehow works in LA. I love all things outdoors and despise almost anything that takes place under fluorescent lighting. I have dogs instead of actual human children, but I act out all maternal instincts on them.

All the time.

I am constantly searching for the next great thing and life has so far been an insane ride, so I thought I’d write a little about what I experience and learn along the way.

So, this is just a glimpse into my world and what I find intriguing/beautiful/worth writing about. I did study creative writing for years in college so hopefully this won’t be a complete disaster.
