Google Reader (or RSS in general) has become so indispensable in my internet experience that if a site does not offer an RSS feed, it’s likely that I’ll never return again. And although I do my best to keep my Google Reader subscriptions to a minimum, I still subscribe to hundreds upon hundreds of feeds. […]
So perhaps this is the reason I have NEVER heard of the über-popular blog Sea of Shoes until tonight. Jane Aldridge, the 17-year-old blogger behind Sea of Shoes. I found the site intriguing, much like a 5-car pileup on the LIE. You want to not look, but you can’t. Here is a 17-year-old girl — […]
As if the first time around wasn’t bad enough… Lately I have been confronted by friends and family who asked me not to share so much online, FOR MY OWN GOOD. The “inappropriateness” of my blog (and what I choose to share on Facebook and Twitter) was not only limited to the pregnancy and miscarriage, […]
Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day. ~ Thornton Wilder Last week, a friend posed the question Why I Blog. (Why Do You?)

Being accepted as a blogger for Weddingbee has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I have forged amazing friendships, learned a great deal about blogging (and being a better person in general), and have found a treasure trove of inspiration for all aspects of my life.

Umm…why didn’t anyone tell me that this site looks like crap on IE7 and below??? I made the change to the new layout back in July and according to my traffic stats, a whooping 18% of my visitors use IE7 when viewing this site. I don’t know why it never occurred to me to check […]
Call me a party pooper, but I have never been into Halloween. In fact, the last time I donned a costume on October 31st was back in middle school. I was tempted to go all out this year — dress in a slutty outfit (because when else can I dress like a streetwalker and not […]
I have been blogging for eight years. I have had moderate readership at my first blog, gained immense exposure through Weddingbee, and am starting to get a small but devoted following here at Geek in Heels. Needless to say, I am no stranger to internet trolls. I have received my fair share of personal attacks […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
