    The view from G/O Media's new office: Nothing like being reminded I need to save for retirement all day everyday. It's like having an office facing my fiscal-minded dad.

    Just spent most of the day turning my bedroom into a large closet that just happens to have a bed in it. I think I might have too many clothes if this was my solution to the lack of closet space. But oh well!

    Lord, it's friggin' May in NYC and I still have a space heater going because there's a chill in my apartment. Where is Spring? Can anyone point me in the direction of Spring?

    All that said, I'm still on and hungry again. Perhaps I can have a baked chicken breast or some baked vegetables or handful of raw nuts or one kiwifruit or water and air? Hmmm, I am lazy. So water and air seems appealing ...

    And I'll never forget that in the hardest time of my life, so many people were so kind to me, looking out for me and protecting me. I was really fortunate. I'll always have a soft spot for Bakersfield.

    I was hospitalized three times in those five years, yet I met some amazing people, had some great experiences and some pretty good scoops as a reporter there.

    Also, can I just say? I've come a long-ass way to get to where I am now. What a journey. I spent 5 years in Bakersfield, working, struggling and, actually, having a good time when I wasn't sick. It truly was the best/worst of times

    I can't believe it's been more than 13 years since I lived in , working for when this picture was taken. Why am I in the front and center? Also, please ignore the terrible hair and outfit, it was an awkward time for me!

    Whatever the diff, don't care. I lost 10 lbs in three weeks, so that's good enough for me!

    I can't tell if I'm losing weight from this because of the Paleo diet or because I'm too lazy to properly cook anything. I'm just like "I'll eat a handful of nuts" instead of making dinner most nights.

    But I wasn't always this way. Basically being The changed my life in ways I couldn't even comprehend. It opened up a whole, new, wild world for me that I've been navigating since 2007.

    In the story, I talk about how I turned out this bougie when no one in my immediate family is this damn bougie. I do have one, incredibly bougie, like painfully so, great aunt on my mom's side, my wonderful Aunt Ollie. So maybe I got it from her? I dunno!
