Good morning beautiful people! I am writing you today live from New York City! I have been enjoying the city with my cutie-parents for the past few days. We are here for the Shorty Awards!

Thank you so much for all of the support and nominations for a Shorty Award in blogger! Now, it is up to the academy to decide who wins in the Blogger category! Even if I… Continue Reading

Don’t Do These Things At A Social Media Conference

By Melany on March 24, 2015 in Relationships, Snarky

How big is your Klout? #smmw15pickuplines15

And…. commence packing ….again! I hate packing but have decided not to fully empty my suitcase any more because I am always on the road. Thanks to BMW for giving me this M suitcase so I can travel in style. And where am I off to next? Well, Social Media Marketing World in San Diego, CA. This is by far one of the best conferences and I highly suggest attending if you have the chance. Last year, I wrote a post called 16 Things Not To Do At (Any/Social Media) Conference and I just re-read that post and LOL’d. No… Continue Reading

Spring Beauty Essentials: evian® Facial Spray & Giveaway

By Melany on March 10, 2015 in Goodies

My travel schedule is insane the next month! They are all good things though. I am off to Las Vegas for the Pac 12 Tourney, then San Diego for Social Media Marketing World and then to New York for the Shorty Awards (fingers crossed because I am a finalist in blogger). With all this travel, my poor skin takes a beating. I mean really. So, I found this little trick a while back and it is called evian® Facial Spray. It is a little bottle so it fits in my purse and when I look a little less than snarky,… Continue Reading

snarky picks for super bowl in scottsdale, az

As most of you know, I am a University of Arizona #Wildcatforlife, travel way too much for work on the West Coast but have just relocated to Scottsdale, Arizona which just happens to be the home for the Super Bowl this year a.k.a deflategate! Even though my 49ers did not have the greatest showing 2014/2015 and I hate Levi’s stadium, I am still a huge fan and love anything football (basketball and baseball) related. Plus, I have been known to know “where the party is at”, love my Grey Goose libations, awesome taste in music, food and fashion (if I… Continue Reading

By Melany on November 16, 2014 in Goodies

Red Stitch Wine Event & Chef Beau Macmillian at the Sanctuary Camelback Hotel

This post is easy to write. The only part that would make it better is if I could do these things all over again. Do you think we could rewind the clock back a week or so just for me? Please? I have been a good girl! If I can’t do that then I will settle for sharing my must see, must eat, must drink and must travel things with you…well, that YOU MUST DO ASAP! Travel to Scottsdale Arizona and stay at the Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain. I received a press release about a Red Stitch wine event at… Continue Reading

19 Things That Make Moving Worse Than It Already Is

By Melany on July 14, 2014 in Greatest Hits, Snarky

It is 4:45 AM and I am writing to you from my mass exodus from a place called Cricketville. I have been there and none of you need to go there. Take my word for it. I have experience with creepy crawlies and in the past week I felt them crawling all over. You know? That horrible feeling you have when you can’t decide where to itch first because “something” is crawling ALL OVER YOUR BODY and won’t go away. Not to worry! I have found my salvation in a hotel called the Valley Ho until I can be safely… Continue Reading

Billboard Music Awards 2014: What Music?

By Melany on May 19, 2014 in Snarky

Well, that wraps up another Billboard Music Awards show in Las Vegas for moi and the final one I attend until Metallica, Godsmack, Shinedown, KORN, Soundgarden, Staind, Drowning Pool, Black Sabbath, Dokken, Disturbed, Ratt, Guns N Roses, Tesla, Otherwise, Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Sevendust, Scorpions, ACDC, Van Halen, Motley Crue (just to name just a few) are all in the same room rocking out and receiving REAL music awards. Coming from a music business background and working with real rock groups, it disappoints me the lack of rock and good music out there for young people to digest! I mean I… Continue Reading

Bringing Sexy Back: Enter & Win $190 Love Massage Box from Hello Cheri

By Melany on May 7, 2014 in Goodies

I always say I will never post anything on the blog that will embarrass my parents or I will look back in a few years and want to crawl under a table from OMG syndrome. With that said, I am all about finding love and cherishing the one you love (if I could ever find him-where is he hiding???) I also don’t think you need one specific day to show your partner that you love them like the Hallmark holiday of Valentines Day. You should appreciate each other every day and no one should tell you when, where and why…. Continue Reading

16 Things Not To Do At (Any/Social Media) Conference

By Melany on April 2, 2014 in Greatest Hits, Snarky

1. Not knowing your competition. Know if anyone is dominating your niche in the market. I am 70% sure there may be someone doing what you think you have created. Can’t you hear Drunk Uncle from SNL saying “I’m prrrrrrrreetttttyyyy suuuuuurrrrrree…..” someone is already doing that? Do your research! 2. Do not wear high heels during the day so you look like a wounded stork walking through the hotel. This will make people notice you but not in a good way and then you can’t attend the rest of the conference and have to call in wounded the second day…. Continue Reading

When Animals Attack: Dating Interference

By Melany on February 19, 2014 in Relationships

The Shorty Awards nominations are over and I hope I did not miss the honor by one spot. I will be ok with it (I will not, but my vodka is chilling and ready for consumption at 4:59PM to soothe my soul -just in case). Stay tuned as they are calculating right NOW! If I did not win, I am convinced outside forces in which I had no control over affected the outcome. Animals. You know? When animals attack? In the past week, I had interference from all of the following “animals”, which prevented proper promoting, blogging, (and successful… Continue Reading
