For the last two years, I’ve lived in Bushwick, the epicenter of edgy hipness. If you don’t believe me, ask Airbnb. It describes my neighborhood as “Industrial • Hip • Bohemian” and known for “Street Murals, Art Galleries, & Pizza.” Or as NYCGO says: “Bushwick has become synonymous with n...

A message, in other words, from my dearly departed chocolate lab Belle who left the physical in January. The sign was very specific and very weird and very funny and––...

It’s often incorrectly attributed to Dorothy Parker, but the sentiment has been expressed by everyone from Oscar Madison in an episode of The Odd Couple to George R.R. Martin creator of Game of Thrones: “I hate writing, but I love having written.” This week, in fact, rather than crossing th...

My new dentist did seem very confused by my reaction. He’d just told me there was a problem with an old cap on a back molar and thus I would probably need a root canal. Exuding sympathy, he offered the news with “I know this sucks but…” Only to hear me respond: “Actually, it’s the best thing that...
