    Hi guys. I’ve happily been one of you for over a year now.  In fact, the main reason for finally obtaining an iPhone when I did was so I could join the Instagram craze.  I’ve been known to say “Instagram that shit!”  And other snappy phrases such as, “I’m gonna Gram this…Instantly!”  My love affair…

    Hey Inconsiderate Neighbor! Do you LOVE block parties?  The late hours?  The screaming?  The repetitive dance music with thumping base line?  You must hate the fact that it’s winter, and too cold for block parties, huh? Well, NOT ANYMORE!  Because I have a solution for you! Instead of standing in the cold street to scream…

    Source: google.es via Dina on Pinterest You know all my bragging about never getting sick?  Well, hubris is a bitch.  Because I got sick.  And when I got sick, I became a self-indulgent baby. First of all, classic Doctor Who is available on Netflix (see above)!  If Tom Baker can fight the Wirrn with panache…

    *ding dong* I’m not expecting company… “[mumble mumble] Diaz?” a strong, authoritative man’s voice on the other side of the door. Uh oh.  Is someone in trouble?  Someone named “Diaz”?  They have the wrong person!  I don’t want anyone knocking my door down! I do a quick check in the bathroom mirror on my way…

    Ask me what I do and I will tell you I am a tour guide, and I love working at a candy store, and I keep up a blog. Ask me about my hobbies and I’ll tell you:  I walk. Walking is not just a means of getting somewhere to me.  It’s constant action.  Meditation. …

    February is such a “blah” month.  The holiday-a-month excitement is now firmly behind us, while weeks and maybe even months of chilly grey skies yawn ahead on the horizon.  Firmly feeling the “blah”s, I took it into my initiative to take a mini “vacation” last Thursday! Most important in a vacation is that one doesn’t…

    Seeing as how it is Valentine’s Day, most of you are enjoying romantic dates with your cherished significant others. I, being insignificant, am single.  And as such, I thought I would take this opportunity to regale you with some horror stories from the single side of life.

    Wait.  Hold up. When I was a kid, I couldn’t wait to grow up.  No more bedtimes, no more bullies, no more bullshit. And then I grew up. And guess what. No more bedtimes, no more bullies, no more bullshit. Being an adult is vastly superior to being a kid.  Granted, please take this with…

    Apparently, according to the MTA, the biggest problem facing New Yorkers is NOT the rising costs, the decrease in service, the unpredictability of the trains, higher cost and less service.  It’s people getting hit by trains. People.  Getting hit.  By trains. Something that usually only happens of one’s own volition, or due to complete human…

    The love of chocolate is not uncommon, but I think I get extra points for taking it to an extreme level.  Love of chocolate practically got me my job, after all!  And my passion is alive and well and taking over my cupboards.  I can’t tell you enough how much I freaking love chocolate.  Can…

    Late to the party?    I don’t like making New Year’s Resolutions because they’re so hard to keep!  And I especially don’t like telling people about them because then I’m held accountable.  Still, I have had a few New Year’s Resolutions in the back of my mind for the past month and thought to share them. …

    February is the month of love.  What better way to spread love than to showcase some of the things I love?  And what better “thing I love” to start with than something that has no emotion… DALEKS. In case you can’t tell, I love me some Daleks.  What?  Why?  I love their tinny, screeching voices. …

    Some people dream of living by the sea.  Looking out their window onto the shore, watching the tide roll in. Others prefer the mountains, looking out their window to see peaks and forests and woodland creatures. Me?  This is my view: And while it’s nice to see those beaches and those trees every once in…

    Target here in New York City is not like Target in the rest of the country.  Suburban Target is well-stocked, classy, and clean.  From past experiences in Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx, I can tell you that this is not the case here. Then I heard a rumour about a Target in East Harlem that…
