Here’s my final video about the little apartment in Hell’s Kitchen I loved living in since October of 2007.
If you know of anyone who would like to move in Sept 15th (or Sept 30th), it’s now going for $2350 (I forked over $2550 for the last two years - totally worth it) … the building has great doormen, a gym, and is located on a pretty little street near lots of fantastic...
Me: No, I'm trying to update my site. Because there are these people who get mad if I don't post photos ...
Code Name TK: Who are these people? Are they real people?
I really did run a mile in full makeup. 9:07, woooo!

"Love where you live" →
Yeah, I loved this one alright … until I got to the photo of the ORANGE-RED TILED BATHROOM.
Yuck.
Also, $4k? Double yuck. Nice feel to the place, though.
Hi there!
So, a bit of news :) I’m a coach for the new cool community called You.Propelled on DivineCaroline. It’s all about inspiring you to live your life to the fullest; to follow your passions - something I try to do every day. I know it’s not always easy to keep yourself motivated (um, I felt that way waking up this morning to get my a** to the gym), but sometimes we find people or places...

People are as strange about eating as they are about love. They want what they...
– Frank Bruni
Funny, because I had written in this post about my own strange eating habits, talking of “absolutely ridiculous, silly meal choices” and explaining that I didn’t know why I ate that particular way, “except a force of habit, and perhaps a combination of laziness...

– Frank Bruni, former NYT dining critic, “Critic’s Notebook: What they brought to the table.”
I once dined with Frank Bruni … last October, if I remember correctly (maybe November). Suffice it to say, I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve felt that out of my...
A bit distracted ...
I apologize if I’m lifecasting EVEN LESS than usual. I’m almost entirely distracted by my not-even-remotely heroic Quest to Find a New Place to Live. I guess I’m just one of those people who feels vaguely ill if they don’t have their home situation locked down, and while everyone keeps saying that it should be “easy” to find something I love, I’m not so...

From: [redacted] Date: August 22, 2009 5:05:01 PM EDT To: Julia Allison <julia@nonsociety.com> Subject: DON’T! Hey Julia, I don’t think it’s smart to post your measurements (including weight) on your lifecast. It could be insensitive to those struggling with these issues. Although you may not mean it, it can come across as though those numbers are important markers of...

Just. Brilliant.
If you've ever had any questions about acupuncture...
now’s the time to ask!
Tomorrow, after my segment on MTV, I’ll be heading over to my acupuncturist, Dr. Nicholas Steadman, to tape an episode of TMIweekly. The first portion of the shoot will be devoted to answering reader questions about the process.
If you have any - from where acupuncture originated to why it works to what it can treat to “does it hurt like a...
