Traipsing up to a check-in counter for a flight, especially an international one, always gives me anxiety. Did I overpack? Will my suitcase make weight? What can I take out if I'm over? I want to say that packing for London/Paris/Barcelona was such a relaxing experience...
There are few things I wish I had known before I touched down in London’s Heathrow Airport at 7:20am, now two Saturdays, ago. One, no one seems to know why London Bridge fell down. And if they do, this isn’t information that is freely given in...
At 11:45pm, I hopped out of a cab by the fountains in Tuileries Garden in Markus Lupus glitter booties, feathers and elbow length gloves and ran with a bottle of champagne toward the Eiffel Tower. When we finally reached the bridge where we would watch the 1,063...

Y'all. This heat is no joke. It's bringing out the worst in people. But also the very best. And just when I fix my mouth to complain, God tells me several different times to shut the eff up. I had a pretty long day yesterday. Long...
