    One of the hardest parts of being an entrepreneur is knowing that you will never, ever, ever finish everything on your to-do list. You can start the day with the intention of completing all your tasks; you can pare it down to what you think is a reasonable number. You can schedule specific times to work…

    There seems to be an ever-increasing feeling of entitlement these days. I see it while people are driving; at the grocery store, on the train, even walking down the street. Unfortunately, the place I see it most is online. I am thrilled to promote businesses. That’s a large part of what The Local Tourist does;…

    Day 6: “My breasts have had a brilliant career. I’ve just tagged along for the ride.” – Pamela Anderson, an actress of advanced proportions This quote helped changed my impression of Pamela Anderson.

    Every year for Christmas my mom gets me one of those daily calendars. You know the kind – each day has its own page and when it’s done you tear it off and move on to the next one. They’re also themed. My favorite up to now was last year’s Mensa. When I’d get to…

    This weekend I received one of those emails that makes you dance around in your sock feet and say YES and makes your significant other and the cats look at you like you’ve gone batso.

    “I don’t know how you do it. You’re everywhere. Do you ever sleep?” I’ve heard that often in the last couple of years. I go out. A lot. It’s part of my job. And letting everybody know I’m out is part of my job. So it’s given me a reputation, of sorts. I remember pulling…

    I actually feel a little guilty about writing this post. It’s after three in the morning and, while I’ve been working all night, I also have a busy day tomorrow. I’ve got stories from my Kansas trip that still need telling. I made it through a few items on my to-do list today but not…

    How many of you are cringing at that title? Are you looking for an edit button somewhere, anywhere? Any idiot knows it’s rose, not rows, right? Misspelling that word changes the meaning entirely and makes the mis-speller look careless, disrespectful, or downright rude. That’s exactly how I feel any time someone misspells my name. My name…
