Fri, Mar 3 in #Miami: My friend Ana lives in a condo her parents bought. It's mostly seniors. So when I went down to the gym every early afternoon while Ana was still sleeping, it was me and the seniors. Which I loved. I was inspired to see them on the treadmills and lifting weights. I ran for an hour each day. A couple of glitches: One lady asked to turn down the TV, so I just shut off the Real Housewives of (Somewhere) that I had cranked up. And a man noticed some black stuff on the ground behind my treadmill. He thought it was rubber coming off the treadmill. I realized it was probably mud coming off my shoes from that hash run the night before. But before I could say anything, he had already gone to get a Spanish-speaking cleaner to come and sweep up the dirt. So I just stayed quiet. But in my silence, I overheard a lot of gossip about the condo boar elections. And I heard the broom-ordering man and his friend playing a game where broom man lists off actors from many years ago and the friend has to guess what show they were on. Good way to exercise the memory! 🏋 #gym #fitness #seniorliving #health #Florida #condo #travelblog #travelphotography 🏃🏼 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

At the end of the @tiff_net #annetheseries premiere after-party at @lumarestaurant, the @CBC team posed with the flower wall to celebrate their hard work. I think that's director @nikicaro in front. Not only did she direct @amybethmcnulty in @annetheseries, she directed @jessicachastain in @thezookeeperswife, which you'll recall I filmed a song about for youtube/joshrachlis. So I feel extra connected to this show! Get connected yourself on Sunday at 8pm on CBC. 🌺 #feminist #anneofgreengables #redhair #actress #tv #cdntv #cdnfilm #Canada #Toronto #flower #Hollywood #celebritynews #celebritygossip #celebrity @netflix 🥕 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #travelblogger #singersongwriter #cartoonist #entertainmentblogger


At the end of the @tiff_net #annetheseries premiere after-party at @lumarestaurant, the vultures decended to take flowers from the flower wall. I can't blame them. I was loving my flower crown. Watch @amybethmcnulty as Anne wear a flower crown on Sunday at 8pm on @CBC. 🌺 #feminist #anneofgreengables #ginger #redhair #actress #tv #cdntv #cdnfilm #Canada #Toronto #flower #Hollywood #celebritynews #celebritygossip #celebrity @netflix 🥕 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #travelblogger #singersongwriter #cartoonist #entertainmentblogger

At the @tiff_net #annetheseries premiere after-party at @lumarestaurant, I ran into @glendoncampus friend Danielle, and her husband Amin Bhatia who wrote the music for Anne. It was a last minute gig he did in 3 weeks! I noted: "I loved the music. Right when it started, I was like, it's old-fashioned instruments but with the modern feel! Is that what you were going for?" "Yah", he replied. So I guess I'm a creative genius! Hear for yourself on Sunday at 8pm on @CBC. 🌺 #feminist #anneofgreengables #ginger #redhair #actress #tv #cdntv #cdnfilm #Canada #Toronto #music #musician #soundtrack #Hollywood #celebritynews #celebritygossip #celebrity @netflix 🥕 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #travelblogger #singersongwriter #cartoonist #entertainmentblogger


At the @tiff_net #annetheseries premiere after-party at @lumarestaurant, I drew me and @amybethmcnulty, who plays Anne. The real us is on top, the cartoon is at the bottom. Let her inspire your creativity starting Sunday at 8pm on @CBC. 🌺 #feminist #anneofgreengables #ginger #redhair #actress #tv #cdntv #cdnfilm #Canada #Toronto #cartoon #art #drawing #Hollywood #celebritynews #celebritygossip #celebrity @netflix 🥕 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #travelblogger #singersongwriter #cartoonist #entertainmentblogger


At the @tiff_net #annetheseries premiere after-party at @lumarestaurant, I drew a quick cartoon of @amybethmcnulty, who plays Anne. Her reaction when I told her I had just drawn the cartoon (I showed her my markers as proof) was as Anne-like as you can imag-Anne. I spent 2 minutes making a silly doodle, and her praise made me feel like I painted the Mona Lisa. This is the kind of joy she will bring to the world starting Sunday at 8pm on @CBC. 🌺 #feminist #anneofgreengables #ginger #redhair #actress #tv #cdntv #cdnfilm #Canada #Toronto #cartoon #art #drawing #Hollywood #celebritynews #celebritygossip #celebrity @netflix 🥕 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #travelblogger #singersongwriter #cartoonist #entertainmentblogger


At the #annetheseries premiere after-party, they gave out flower crowns just like @amybethmcnulty wore in the show. This made me feel as pretty as Anne, so I had the confidence to give her the cartoon I had just drawn of her. 🌺 The story: ‪As I drew @amybethmcnulty, I checked a giant poster of her to make sure I had her exactly right. I think you'll agree, my drawing is basically a photo of her. 📝 The story: At the @tiff_net screening of @cbc's Anne on Thursday, I was such a f-Anne of Amybeth's f-Anne-tastic portrayal of Anne, at the @lumarestaurant party afterward I quickly drew a cartoon of her, based on a scene from the show.

‪Just saw @cbc's #annetheseries at @tiff_net. @amybethmcnulty is f-Anne-tastic! I'm not surprised @netflix wants this. Watch it Sunday 8pm!

Fellow @getreelmovies film critic @cherann3 invited me to the @tiff_net premiere of @cbc's #annetheseries. We're about to watch it. Hope I get to interview @amybethmcnulty after. I'm a fellow ginger, after all! Cheryl says it looks like there a lot of ginger girls in the audience too.

Thur Mar 2 in #Miami: After the post-#HashRun meeting, some people swam in this lake. Look how beautiful #CoralGables is. People actually live here! Why do I live in #Toronto? 🏃🏼 #hashhouseharriers #runninggroup #runner #running #fitness #travel #travelblog #boobs 🏃🏼‍♀️ I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #YouTuber #digitalnomad


Thur Mar 2 in #Miami: The #HashRun was hash-tastic! I thought I was going on just a normal group run. And I had a cold, so I was worried about keeping up. But it was an unreal experience. Leaders had laid out a path through #CoralGables with flour on the road. Some paths were tricks, to keep the faster runners occupied. There were beer stops, where people stopped to drink beer (I don't drink much even when healthy and not running, so I declined). There were Boob Checks, where the girls flashed their boobs. What?! I didn't even realize that was going on at first. At some point Jennie asked if I'd seen the boobs. So then I paid more attention to what was going on. Now this is motivation for me to go running! I could become a marathoner! We stopped in an abandoned house for more beer. We stopped in a gorgeous park and a girl led some yoga and people did shots. At the end of the run, we climbed a fence and gathered by the water, and they sang dirty songs and jokingly made complaints about how the leader's planned the run. Everyone has a nickname, but I don't have one yet. I'm a run "virgin" - Which Jenny called me in the Facebook group before the run. I didn't realize it was an actual term. as a virgin, I had to stand on a cooler in the center of a circle and either tell a joke, sing a song, or show an intimate body part. I started doing a standup act about the run. But then the girls gathered together and started chanting for me to show a body part. 🍆 Jennie said they don't like people filming what goes on here. But suffice it to say I'm interested in going on more hash runs. Apparently some people even crash at other Hashers' houses and go across America doing these things. I'll start with a #Toronto run. 🏃🏼 #hashhouseharriers #runninggroup #runner #running #fitness #travel #travelblog #boobs 🏃🏼‍♀️ I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #YouTuber #digitalnomad

Thur Mar 2 in #Miami: I got to the run late, but Jennie wasn't even there yet, so I was ok. I was sick from a cold. And I had no idea what was about to happen. Jennie had just said it was a group run. I said I was sick and out of shape, but she said it was ok to be slow. Little did I know, this #HashRun was going to be one of the craziest experiences of my life! See those chalk words on the ground? I didn't even notice them at the time. But now I know they were integral to the run. 🏃🏼 #hashhouseharriers #runninggroup #runner #running #fitness #travel #travelblog 🏃🏼‍♀️ I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad


Thur Mar 2 in #Miami: My @lyft driver shows me a documentary a film student made about her son and his spoken word poetry. In the video, he says it's a demon inside me that drives him to make his music - But he corrects himself and says angel. His church-going mom knows he corrected himself cuz she'd be mad. 💒 Story from previous pic: With my dad, I was on 10pm bedtime and 7am wakeup schedule. With Ana, I was back to the schedule we had during TIFF. She stays up all night and sleeps all day. (Uh oh - Was I staying with a vampire?) So I don't have pics from before noon. And by this point, my sore throat was becoming a cold. I felt like crap. But Jennie (remember her from the @surfcomberhotel pool photo from 4 years ago? 👙) invited me to join her for a run. It was an hour away by car. But I figured I better grab the chance to see her. Ana showed me how to use Lyft. I wore my running sunglasses, even though I showed up at the location after sundown. I had a nice chat with the driver, who told me about her son switching from electrical engineering to sound engineering. He likes to make music. She will support his choice, bur she's hoping he doesn't waste her money and wind up without a job. I hope he becomes the next Jay-Z. 🚗 #taxi #travel #travelblog #travelphotography #Florida #runner #fitness #hashrun 🚗 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: After #TheLittleMermaid, we walked the Fort Lauderdale strip, taking forever to decide on a restaurant. We settled on this one. And of course some guy knew Ana and came over to chat.

Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: After the guy gave me the spinning toy to hold with my #TheLittleMermaid poster pic, I explained to that group that I was sitting behind them at the very beginning of the show. I didn't mention how annoying I found them, making noise and spinning toys in the middle of the show. But at least they had fun. And I wound up sitting down below right in front of the stage.

Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: My friend Ana was #TheLittleMermaid for Halloween. She considered dressing in the costume to see the musical, but she decided against it. But I convinced her to take her wig, just in case. I put it in my man bag. After the show, we decided to take photos with the poster. I thought it would be funny if I put on the wig. But then I looked so much like the little mermaid, I'll bet people thought I was the actual star the show! But no - The star was @dianahuey! She's in the poster, and I'm beside the poster. 🐟 #broadwayinftlauderdale #musicaltheatre #theatre #BroadwaYMusical #ftlauderdale #travel #travelblog #Disney 🦀


Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: After #TheLittleMermaid, I spot the drunk costumed people who were in front of me before I moved seats. There's that spinning toy that I would soon hold.

Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: I bought the cheapest seat to #TheLittleMermaid, so I was way up here. My vision is getting worse, so I couldn't see well. Ariel looked black to me. Which I thought was interesting casting. But after intermission when I was sitting on ground level, I saw that she was Asian. Which was still interesting. Also, there were 4 drunk friends in costumes sitting in front of me here, with one spinning a sparkly toy. It drove me crazy and moved a few rows up. Little did I suspect that after the show, I'd be holding the spinning toy. 🐟 #broadwayinftlauderdale #musicaltheatre #theatre #Florida #ftlauderdale #travel #travelblog #Disney 🦀 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Wed Mar 1 in #Miami: My parents dropped me at my friend Ana's and continued to Key West. I drove Ana's car to @browardcenter while she did her make-up in passenger seat. We met her friend, and then Ana spent 10 minutes trying to find her email with the ticket. So we missed the first 30 minutes of #TheLittleMermaid. I'll have to Netflix the movie. 🐟 #broadwayinftlauderdale #musicaltheatre #theatre #Florida #ftlauderdale #travel #traveblog #Disney 🦀 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Wed, Mar 1 in #TierraVerde: After a 4-day drive from #Ottawa, my dad and I finally arrived to pick up my mom. She had spent the week at her friend's sister's condo, running a 15k race in her new 70+ age category, and having adventures like sea shell hunting. I went to the restroom by the pool and admired the message board, with notices like apartment rentals, St. Patrick's Day party, death announcement. What a cozy community. And check out that pool. And the water view. Can anyone remind me why I live in #Toronto? 🌊 #Florida #condo #travel #tourism #pool #travelblog #beach #runner #seniorliving #fitness 🌴 I am a: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #digitalnomad

(See caption of photo of the cartoon for the whole mis-spelling story.) I don't think Efrain understood or cared about my story. He was just happy to get the cartoon I drew of him! 📝 #serverlife #travel #restaurant #foodie #Florida #cartoon #drawing #art ✏️ I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando #Celebration @columbiarestaurant Proof that I photographed the cartoon I drew of our waiter in the restroom, which had brighter lighting. Also proof that my shirt was dirty and I tried to clean it with water. I'm all class. 🥗 #serverlife #travel #restaurant #foodie #Florida #cartoon #drawing #art 📝 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad


Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando #Celebration @columbiarestaurant I drew a cartoon of our waiter Efrain. See previous photo of him - Pretty accurate drawing, right? My friend Ana says I was dead-on. Though I wasn't so dead-on with his name. I was about to write his name with an N, but then hesistated. I asked my dad and he said it was with an M. So I made it Efraim. I went into the restroom to take a pic of it for you (the restaurant was too dark). Back at the table I asked our waiter about the spelling and he said it's with an N. So I made the M into an N. Dad noted that Efraim would be Hebrew. Ya, dad, but this is a Spanish restaurant. Anyway, I went back to the restroom and took another pic. Then I finally gave it to Efrain. 🥗 #serverlife #travel #restaurant #foodie #Florida #cartoon #drawing #art 📝 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad


Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando #Celebration @columbiarestaurant As I filmed the waiter Efrain making what the menu calls the World's Best Salad, he told me what hashtags to use for the post on Instagram. Now that is my kind of waiter! He definitely earned the cartoon I drew of him afterward. 🥗 #travelblog #travel #restaurant #foodie #foodreview #Florida #foodblog #salad 📱 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando #Celebration @columbiarestaurant I ordered what the menu says is the World's Best Salad. The waiter Efrain made it at the table. Remember this photo so you can see how accurate my cartoon of Efrain is. 🥗 #travelblog #travel #restaurant #foodie #foodreview #Florida #foodblog #salad 🍴 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad


Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando #Celebration @columbiarestaurant The waiter brings your #gazpacho with a little plate of toppings and you tell him what you want him to add. What a gaz! (Like, what a gas. Get it?) 🍜 #travelblog #travel #restaurant #foodie #foodreview #Florida #foodblog 🍅 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad

Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando Dad asked what I wanted to do. #Celebration caught my eye on the map. I remembered it was some kind of perfect town built by Disney where you can actually live. I wanted to see that, because I'm always wondering where I would be happy living. Two friends texted that I should try @columbiarestaurant in Celebration. We drove down past all the touristy things and got to the town and missed the turn to the downtown where the restaurant is and drove the length of the town, but dad didn't get too mad cuz he was impressed with how nice the town looks. This pic is the heart of the downtown, with a lake, lined by restaurants, and in the back that's a lovely theatre. This town is so beautiful it pains me to look at it. I told my dad in the car on the way back that often I don't like seeing or doing things that I find extremely beautiful and wonderful, because it hurts my my stomach, because it makes me sad to get older and one day not have it. My dad didn't say anything to my comment. He probably just thinks I'm crazy. But anyway, maybe it's that I don't know how to fully enjoy the situation, so it frustrates me. I feel that way about beautiful medieval-style forests. About playing with my niece. And I think it's why I've broken up with the few women I've truly loved. So I'm not sure I could live in Celebration, even though it looks like a perfect place to go for a walk at night, to make friends at the baseball diamond, to join community groups, to sit at the coffee shops. Actually, it's because of those amazing things that I don't think I could stand it. I feel more comfortable in an ugly concrete city because it doesn't make me feel any joy. But anyway, ya, Celebration is a nice town. 🏡 #travelblog #travel #dating #single #relationships #Florida #happiness #smalltown 🏘 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad


Tues, Feb 28: #Orlando I posted this photo at the time. But what I didn't know at the time was that I was being catfished! I was waiting at @bestwestern for a woman to come meet me. For months I'd been chatting with "Melinda Besselman", a nurse from Cincinnati. She told me she was going to be in Orlando until Thurs March 2 and I could stay in her hotel room. So the whole drive down, I was still trying to decide whether to get dropped in Orlando or #Miami. And I think I pursuaded dad to at least stop in Orlando. So we checked into the hotel and at 3:49pm Melinda said she'd come meet me at 4, or 4:30 at latest. Then at 5 she said she was still getting ready but she could meet me anywhere. Dad wanted to go out and do something. So we finally headed to the town of Celebration, which I wanted to see. I kept Melinda updated on the restaurant we were at. But she never replied again! It was only days later that it clicked - I'd been totally conned! So, new rule. I video chat with people soon after making contact online. Or, even better, I don't meet people online anymore. Unless they're celebrities. Whom I will meet on Raya, the dating app for celebrities and creative people. Which I will get on when I'm famous. My friend Ana in Miami told me about this app later in the week. But I'm getting ahead of myself. 📱 #travelblog #hotel #travel #catfish #dating #single #relationships #Florida 💔 I am: #celebrityinterviewer #entertainmentreporter #radiohost #tvhost #comedian #actor #voiceactor #singersongwriter #cartoonist #screenwriter #filmcritic #travelblogger #lifestyleblogger #foodblogger #entertainmentblogger #fashionblogger #mommyblogger #YouTuber #podcaster #digitalnomad
