As some of you may know, my degree is in Psychology. I took a lot of classes in the developmental area of Psych (in fact, I think I had Child Development with you, Alyssa). One thing we learned was that when a baby hears another baby crying, it often will start to cry too. This is one

I’m a psychology major too! And seeing people cry happens to make me cry too...
I am so tired of caring….caring what people a work think, caring what my husband thinks, caring how my life turns out…its just so old. I’m over it.

Thank you all so much for making the Battle Studies tour such a huge success and a pleasure. I’m going to miss seeing your faces every night. Thanks for singing along. And for accepting me. You don’t know how good that feels. And thanks for the signs, the clever, funny, awesome signs. And for…
You and your music changed my life…I thank you for that

“Via 4029tv.com: SPRINGDALE, Ark. — Micayla Patterson, 17, was killed when the truck she was riding in was hit near downtown Tulsa. Patterson was returning home after a John Mayer concert.”
I’m sitting in my dressing room in Houston, having just read this terrible news. My heart and…
This is one of the many reasons I love John Mayer…his heart and genuine empathy
Stress kills
I think we all understand on some level that stress is bad for us. Of course emotionally but the physical toll is staggering. Someone I know had a heart attack today. With fast food, lack of exercise, obesity running rampant in our society, I’m sure you imagine this person as some over weight, unhealthy individual….someone emulating the mistakes of his family before him. But you would...
I think I may have misplaced something....
I feel like I’m still young…I’m 33 and at this point in my life, I feel like I’m at the top of my game. I look better than I did even in high school, I have a great, well-paying job (where I am actually crazy about the two guys I work for) I still get hit on….not daily, but often enough to feel like I’m attractive to a certain extent, people are drawn to...
one forty plus: Twitter Isn't "Over", I'm Over It.... →
Last week in Los Angeles I participated in a live Q&A as part of an ASCAP expo on songwriting. When the topic of Twitter came up, I explained my waning interest in it being part of my daily life. By no means do I think it’s over as a medium altogether, but I do think that the days of “Twitter: The…
I have felt this way about Twitter from the beginning…even Facebook isn’t...
one forty plus: Please →
I’m not out to please everybody - I’ve actually been out to try not to displease anybody, and that’s even harder work. It’s like Prozac for creativity - cutting off the highs and lows and the risks and the rewards so that nobody walks away from a show or listens to an album with a passionate…
This is my life, figuring out when to stop pleasing everyone and just please myself because in...
