    I Don’t Like The Nightmare Before Christmas

    October 26, 2022 / 0 Comments

    I am a Hot Topic Millennial. I still identify as an emo kid. Fall Out Boy is still my favorite band and I was in love with Pete Wentz, with his Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired sleeve and all for most of my teenage years. I know Blink 182's "I Miss You" by heart and I do not like The Nightmare Before Christmas. I would almost go as far as saying I hate the movie.

    Hodad’s – 8 Years Later And Nothing Has Changed

    October 19, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Hodad's is an amazing place, with amazing food, and a super fun atmosphere. I went over 8 years between visits and it was like no time at all had passed. If you find yourself anywhere near Ocean Beach, San Diego, and you like burgers, I'm telling you, you need to make some time for a visit to Hodad's!

    Cal Poly Pumpkin Fest – Fall Fun For The Whole Family

    October 14, 2022 / 1 Comment

    I don't have kids of my own, but both my husband and I grew up around babies. We both have lots of nieces and nephews, so we are both well-versed in family-friendly activities, and the Cal Poly Pumpkin Fest is just that! With hay rides, a petting zoo, a corn maze, and of course pumpkins, Cal Poly's Pumpkin Fest is family-friendly fall fun and a great way to spend the afternoon.

    Hocus Pocus 2 Made Me Feel Like a Bad Millennial

    October 10, 2022 / 0 Comments

    It seems like everyone that grew up in the 90s loves Hocus Pocus! And so when the announcement that there was going to be a Hocus Pocus 2 broke, it seemed like that's all anyone could talk about. My Instagram and my Facebook were filled with posts about how excited everyone was that the Sanderson sisters were coming back. As the release date approached, it all just got worse. Everyone around me seemed to be counting down the days and, well, I wasn't.

    G&D Burgers – Good Food and Good People

    October 2, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Although I know it will never happen, I am on the hunt for a place that will hit the spot like Colima Burgers did. No burger joint will ever be able to take the place of Colima Burgers in my heart, nor will another place ever feel like home the way Colima Burgers did. That place held too much nostalgia for me, too much of my childhood, and really too much of my life to ever be replaced, but I am hoping (despite what my waistline might want) that I will be able to find a place with burgers and chili cheese fries that are at least nearly comparable.

10.29.2025 Jason Mraz at the Fox Performing Arts C 10.29.2025 Jason Mraz at the Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside, CA

20+ years and I finally got to see @jason_mraz live. Been a fan since "The Remedy" and seeing him live was such a special experience. 

He's an artist I don't get to talk about much and don't share him with others the way I do some of my other favorite musicians. But he's always held a very special place in my heart and has gotten me through a lot over the years. 

He was also one of the few artists my dad and I were able to bond over. I remember one road trip specifically we only listened to Jason's debut album Waiting for my Rocket to Come, on repeat, for all 8 hours.
