On WGN Radio the other night, I was asked if I had any advice for people thinking about creating their own list of new experiences. On air, the main piece of advice I could think of was to ripoff Nike’s famous “Just Do It” line. After giving it more thought, I’ve come up with my…

Listen to My Interview On WGN Radio 720. It Really Happened.
One of my longtime dreams and goals has been to share my 100 New Experiences with a broader audience. Yes, broader than the reach I have on Little Merry Sunshine. It’s part of a larger goal to take over the world. Uh, wait. No. That’s not true. I have no desire to take over the…

Changing Lives With McDonald’s Hamburgers
Never in my entire life did I think I’d type the words that appear in the headline of this post. Given all the bad press McDonald’s has received recently, it’s almost difficult to believe that McDonald’s can change lives for the better, but that’s just what happened on Friday night. I had just walked out…

Day 2: 31 Days of Random Acts of Kindess Update & Apology
In my excitement to kick off #31RAOK yesterday, I goofed. I promised that there would be a giveaway on Little Merry Sunshine today and that was a mistake. I apologize for my error. In my excitement to give all of my readers this fantastic gift, I forgot that there were two other days of Random…

Thanksgiving Week Gratitude List
Over the course of this month, I’ve noticed that my Facebook wall has been filled with daily expressions of gratitude from my friends and family, sort of Advent Calendar like, but for Thanksgiving. If you’re not familiar with this Thanksgiving month tradition on Facebook (I can’t believe I’m saying there are “traditions” on Facebook), each…
