The Pilot Episode Premieres

January 26, 2013

9

…tonight in New York City! The curator of the KATRA FILM SERIES got a hold of the pilot episode for the MY PARENTS ARE CRAZIER THAN YOURS web series and chose to include it in tonight’s big event!  Yours truly, who doesn’t have enough money for a gala premiere outfit, will do her best to […]

“ANGRY GLADYS” #66

September 30, 2011

27

When one of my New York City friends told me about a character she was going to play; a curmudgeonly asexual older woman in a moo-moo who went around attacking the rude and thoughtless behaviors of others, I immediately offered up my assistance, one on condition:  that this character would act out my personal pet […]

“Will Brother Blow My Cover?” #38

March 20, 2011

26

So, as luck would have it, that time of the month hits me and I have no maxi pads.  (It’s ok fellas, keep reading.)  I would use some of my Mom’s Poises, but my dog destroyed them all.  I ask my parents if I can please use the car to just run to the store […]

“P-A-R-T-A-Y” #25

February 26, 2011

So, I decide to do something good and invite Rob over for dinner.  It’s the least I can do for him driving me around and being my faithful accomplice on the mission of embarrassing cell phone abusers.  As we drive home, my phone rings.  It’s my father who tells me that they just got home […]

“NYC – Play or Be Played” #22

February 21, 2011

18

It started like any ordinary day.  Waking thoughts of failure, self-doubt, panic over money, fear of the future, fear of no men ever again, and another annoying text message from my New York friend, Denise. She’s always bragging about her nights out and meeting men.  It never used to bother me, because I was there in […]

“VITO THE GUIDO” #19

February 16, 2011

7

Vito refuses to take off his gold chains.  He says he feels naked without them.   Vito could be considered what anthropologists of our day call a “metrosexual.” Sometimes Vito doesn’t even care about the opposite sex.  He derives his self-esteem from looking good.  He often quotes Billy Crystal, “To look good is to feel good.  […]

“Bed Bath and Way Beyond” #17

I put my coat on and am waiting at the door, while my parents argue about which car to take.  My father wants to take his Smart Car, but my mother asks where I will fit, as it’s only a two-seater.  He says that they can strap me to the roof.  That seems to make […]

“The UPS Man and His ‘Package’” #16

February 9, 2011

13

I’ve always had a thing for UPS guys.  They’re sexy and nice.  What more do you need?  So, when the doorbell rang and I ran down to open it to this cocoa-colored brother, standing 6’2” in his nicely pressed browns, how could my heart not miss a beat?  In my sling, I sign for the package […]

“About To Get Some Action” #14

February 7, 2011

18

The rendezvous was set.  Sunday night in the city I would meet The Indian – the ex who’s been texting and wanting to see me.  Of course deep down I was hoping this was our second chance; that we would resume the lovely relationship I had so missed.  But, for now, and maybe to protect […]

“Match.com” #13

February 6, 2011

16

Before “lockdown” I had subscribed to Match.com in the city, with very little action, yet quite a lot of disappointment.  My subscription is about to expire in a few days.  I hadn’t thought about it much, but there was a 29-year-old who had emailed me three times over the last few days.  This was his 4th email sent, no-lie my peoples, just […]
