Cell Phone Woman - I'm Amazed
Guy, Heather, Sarah and I left the offices of Chelsea Lately today and went to get manicures & pedicures. We weren’t taping a show today.
I sat in a different part of the nail salon and I’m so pissed because I missed this:
Apparantly a woman was on her bluetooth, sitting in a chair getting her nails and feet done as well as a shoulder massage.
She was talking OUT LOUD in an...

My Prayer for 5:56 PM
God or Universe or Whomever - give me the strength so that when I leave work and go to my car to get my gym bag that I actually get the bag and go next door to the gym instead of getting in the car and driving home and putting on gym shorts as if wearing them is a workout.
Not All Dreams Are Boring
I went to bed last night thinking, “I should confirm with my friend Sean that I’m definitely confirmed to do his show at UCB Theatre.” Then my fiancee and I were talking about how Sunday he was going to get his bike tire fixed.
And this is the dream that ensued.
I arrive at a department store with my bike. (I don’t ride a bike in ‘real life.) I confirm with the...
THIS is Never Funny...
I’m at the gym today. I decide to buy a pair of shorts. At the gym there is a coffee/juice/food counter with a cash register. I figured that’s where I pay for the shorts. I ask the lady, “Do I buy merchandise here?” She says politely, “No. Over there.” She points to the check-in desk. I figured the check-in desk wasn’t the place to buy merchandise because...
I'm Ahead of The Julia Child Game
A few weeks ago my friend told me to read Julia Child’s autobiography “My Life in France.” I’m not done reading it yet. I tend to only read when I’m going to bed and then I pass out after reading two words. But it is a great book - two words at a time.
Julia moved to France with her husband after WWII and had no clue how to cook. She just studied at the Cordon Bleu...

Don't Read Emails You Wrote At Age 25
When my nana passed away this past spring - my immediate and extended family promptly ransacked her house for goodies. I found a drawer - in her really ornate 1970’s side table - a bunch of “Jen Kirkman” memorabilia…horribly embarassing headshots, newspaper clippings of me on a pony in my childhood and various emails that I had sent my mom, who apparantly printed them and...
Reasons I am Child-Free
I am approaching 35. No urge for kids ever. In fact, the opposite urge is growing. I am not worried about dying alone - as the good news is, we all do - even if we are the Octomom. I met someone this weekend, probably 20th person in 2009 who is a TOTAL STRANGER, who asked if I want kids. I said, “no.” He continued to prod and pry and I said, “I’m not explaining myself to...
