Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age: September 2014
http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Friday, September 26, 2014. In Memoriam of Anthony James DiRocco III. On Monday, September 8, 2014, we lost Anthony, our dear brother, son, nephew, and friend. There are so many things that I could say about my brother. And while St. Anthony's Parish doesn't allow eulogies during funerals anymore, so I spoke - with Tommy and Vinny on either side of me for support - about Anthony at the wake. Anyway, an unedited version of my eulogy is below.

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Friday, June 21, 2013. In Defense of Two Brothers Dollar Slice Pizza. You guys. I hate to admit it, but I love Two Brothers dollar slice pizza. Such a simple concept: pizza for $1 available 24 hours a day. What? Why doesn't every city in the entire world have this? That was a rhetorical question.). DC does have Jumbo Slice. But my dear Washingtonians. This does not compare. Here are a few arguments in favor of dollar slice pizza. So, in conclusi...

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age: A Little Background
http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/p/a-little-background.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. I finally feel I have found the balance between enjoying my 20s and dealing with the real world. This blog has changed, almost immediately, from just exploring this part of life into a place where I can post my thoughts, feeling and theories on, well, anything and everything. Sometimes it gets pretty serious, but mostly it's just fun. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it. You can also follow me on Twitter. Tales from the LIRR.

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Sunday, April 21, 2013. A List of Random, Absurd Things I Would Like to Do. There are several things I would like to do for no particular reason. I've seen them done on a television show or in a movie, and they are completely. Absurd, but they look like so much fun. Of course, this goes without saying that there would be no consequences if I performed any of these actions. 1 Grab food off someone's plate and eat it. 2 Pull off someone's toupee.

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Sunday, December 23, 2012. Reason #126 Why I Love My Mother: She Always Reminds Us How Much She Loves Us. How much I love my mother. And here's yet another reason why: She always, always reminds us that she loves us. I was texting with her a few days ago, and in a seemingly innocent sign off I wrote "Thanks, love ya." She writes back "Love you too.always.". Wednesday, December 12, 2012. Note to Self: Don't Forget Your Eyes. This poses a problem ...

http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/p/nyc-to-do-list.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. NYC: A To-Do List. Since I am obsessed with lists and making plans, I decided to create another city to-do list. This one: New York City. So, much like my former DC To-Do List. This one will grow, evolve and change. And, if you want to be a part of any of these adventures, or have any ideas, shoot me an email or post a comment. This is a start, but there is much, much more to come. New Museum: Specifically the Carsten Holler Experience. SQUA(RED...

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age: A Love Letter to New York City
http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/2013/10/a-love-letter-to-new-york-city.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Sunday, October 13, 2013. A Love Letter to New York City. I never thought I would feel for a city what I feel for New York. I am nostalgic for Washington. I think of Roma with fondness. But New York. Oh, New York. It's official: The city has taken a hold of me. It wrapped me up, and it will not let me go. There are so many amazing. Last December that could say it better than I ever could. When Thought Catalog. Every minute of every day, something.

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Sunday, February 10, 2013. Bands that MUST Get Back Together. When I saw Backstreet Boys this summer. It got me thinking about all the other bands that should really get back together. I mean En Vogue has done it. New Kids on the Block have toured together the past few years. Even Rolling Stones played at the Hurricane Sandy Relief Concert on 12/12/12. So, here is a list of bands and groups I would like to see get back together for reunions.

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age: A Loaded Question: What Are You Passionate About?
http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/2013/11/a-loaded-question-what-are-you.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Friday, November 15, 2013. A Loaded Question: What Are You Passionate About? Someone asked me the other day, "What are your passions? I answered how I always answer. I gave a nervous laugh, made some sort of lame joke and concluded with the mash-up of the things I do in my free time. (In case you were wondering: See friends and family, work out and explore the city.). Normally I dismiss this question as silly. What am I passionate about? But aft...

Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age: Ciao from Gesualdo!
http://crayonsandcreditcards.blogspot.com/2013/08/ciao-from-gesualdo.html
Somewhere Between Childhood and Old Age. NYC: A To-Do List. Monday, August 12, 2013. Since I've been a terrible blogger lately, thought I would share my recent email to my family and friends on Day 1 of my Italy trip. Feeling inspired to write again. I have really missed traveling. So, while I am excited to go back to Rome and Venice, that feeling of home and family and love is truly the essence of this trip. And, on top of all of this, I am so insanely proud of my mother. The woman has never been ou...
