Friends. My mom has imparted invaluable advice to me my entire life, however, few have been as remarkable and true as her latest gems. As we moved from a downtown loft to our new home, she said, “It’s a lot harder to hide from people in a house when you don’t want to answer the […]
Why Starting this Adventure Club Might Change Everything
Posted on December 15, 2015 Leave a Comment
So, I’m starting an adventure club. And I’m calling it the HooHas Adventure Club. And I want you to join. And bond with me. And make this the best year ever. Amen. You might have read my previous post where I touch on the “why” a little bit, but I wanted to reiterate it here, because […]
Just Take Anna’s Birthday Present, Okay?! (Giveaway)
Posted on September 29, 2015 11 Comments
Yesterday on September 28th, I turned 34. 34!! It’s actually one of those boring age birthdays that’s no big whoop somewhere in the middle of life, but I thought, “What if I made this THE BEST YEAR EVER!?” My first stop to making it the best year ever, I decided to order Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big […]
I’m Writing a Book! Fingers Crossed it Doesn’t Suck, Everyone!
Posted on October 21, 2014 11 Comments
I feel like my title pretty much gave away the climax on this post, but I’m going to keep going anyway. It’s true, I’m writing a book. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, but like all of my dieting endeavors, I keep pushing it off until Monday. I’ve also debated running […]
What’s the Point? A Legit Question as the World Goes to Crap
Posted on August 20, 2014 23 Comments
I’ve found myself creatively stuck. I’m not sure I want to write about my first experience with all-natural deodorant getting me banned from future family reunions when the world is going to crap. The news for the past two months has been horrific on multiple levels. And, oh the opinions! We all have so many, […]
The Reason I Don’t Have Children

I’ve hesitated to write about this for a long time. Not because I didn’t want to – in fact I’ve really wanted to. I suppose I just didn’t know how to go about it or when would be a good time. When bad things happen, as a humor writer, it can be hard to navigate […]
A Douche Saved My Life (and no, that’s not a metaphor)
Posted on June 16, 2014 101 Comments
No, I’m not saying the lead singer of Nickelback saved my life. I’m talking a literal douche here, people. My mind is continuously blown by the existence of life. Think about it. It’s estimated that the chances of you being you – is 1 in 400 quadrillion. QUADRILLION. My brain doesn’t even comprehend that type of number. Put […]
Warning: When the Old Way isn’t Working Anymore, Life May Kick You in the Jewels

When I first started this little space as a way to document the pursuit of my purpose, I figured I would have lots to talk about on a regular basis. What I didn’t realize was that there would be large gaps of time where pretty much nothing is happening. Slight oversight, my friends. My apologies. […]
For Those Who Search For Purpose
Posted on April 10, 2014 17 Comments
I’ve received a few emails and comments from some of you asking, “But what if I don’t know what my purpose is?” I’ve been wanting to answer this for awhile, but I’ve delayed because it’s meaty, complex. Frankly, it’s hard to answer. I’ve read a lot of books about finding one’s purpose. If you’re searching, […]
Just Don’t Be Too Busy To Read This, K?

I’m really busy. Like so busy, I only have time to post how busy I am on Facebook and then keep hitting refresh to see who’s liking and commenting on my status, and then like – for real. I gotta go. Maybe I have time for one more Buzzfeed quiz, but then for real, you […]
