When I announced that I wasn’t selected to Live off Groupon for a year, I had a lot of very sweet people ask me if I was okay. As in, “are you surviving the emotional trauma of not being selected for this opportunity?”
And without hesitation, I could say, “Yes, I’m completely fine.” Sure, I was a little disappointed—I knew I had done a good job, and that I could’ve rocked the assignment—but sad? Upset? Wistful? No, not in the least.
In fact, my reaction reminded me of a friend who was an actor in New York. I asked him how hard it was to wait for those roles he really, really wanted, and he said, “You literally have to get to the point where you’re working so hard, that you don’t remember what you auditioned for.” He recounted the time he did land that dream role, and when

A true list addict doesn't just make a list once a week. He or she makes them all the time. The true list addict has a life full of post-its, scrap paper, This week on The Secret Society of List Addicts, I've posted two actual lists I'd made within the last twenty-four hours. If you can guess what each list is for, you get a virtual pat on the head.
Almost Friday!

This story was told to me recently by a friend:
A few years ago, I worked in an area of town that had lots of little bars all clustered together. It pretty much went without saying that if you worked in one bar, you knew all the other bartenders in the area. One night, a fellow bartender from the sports club across the street and I decided to hook up. We didn’t exchange numbers or anything, just had a quick roll in the hay at his place. Bada boom, bada bing, no-strings-attached, done. Soon after our rendezvous, I quit my job and never saw him again.
About a week ago I was out with some friends and started up a conversation with a nice guy. We talked for about an hour, and the whole time, we kept looking at each other funny. Finally, I asked, “Did you used to work at Sports Bar?” and he was like, “Yeah, why?”

As part of the Live off Groupon challenge, I had to visit a local business that had used Groupon (you can view the video of my experience here). The funny thing is, I have always wanted to try a pole dancing class--it's even part of my 31 before 31 list!--so when this Groupon came available, it was like the universe was saying, "TNR, work that pole." Here's a re-cap of my adventure (also submitted as part of my Live off Groupon application):
The Pole has played a special role throughout history: it has marked the entrance to barber shops, played a northerly home to a fictional fat man, and now provides ladies the easiest way to look sexy this side of the Bumpit. While I’d always thought taking a pole dancing class would be fun, I'd never had the guts to sign up for one. Then a Groupon popped in my inbox for a ridiculously cheap 90 minute session at Dolphin Dance Studios in my hometown. I knew the time had finally come to channel my inner sex kitten (which, let's face it, has become more of a inner sex piglet).
