		<title>My Volunteer Journal: Episode 68 – People with Allergies to Cats Shouldn’t Volunteer with Them</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Don’t volunteer with cats if you’re allergic. I repeat, differently: If you are allergic to cats do not volunteer with them. En espanol: No voluntario con los gatos si usted alergico a ellos. Obvious?  You’d think so, but I had occasion to test this.  Here’s what happened… I set up a volunteer activity with one [...]]]></description>

		<title>TheGoodMuse Explains: How to Be Bad and Look Good</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why is everyone so attracted to bad boys and girls? And how can I be bad while maintaining general wholesomeness? I decided this would be best to answer during the holidays because of the naughty and nice tie in.  And if you type naughty enough your SEO goes off the chart – naughty naughty naughty [...]]]></description>

		<title>UPDATE! My Volunteer Journal: Episode 38 &#8211; Kiva &#8211; Last One Promise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Repaid Again! Re-loaned again. And just in time for Christmas. I would never suggest that Kiva is more fun as a competition. Especially not a competition between family members. That would be tacky and defeat the purpose of being generous out of the goodness of your heart. But&#8230; if, lets say, my family members and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Being Green &gt; Occupy Wall Street</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Occupy Wall Street campaign has inspired millions across the country and the world to evaluate their governments and the strangle hold corporations have on career politicians.  Occupy New York has even managed to raise $500,000 to continue the fight “to end the tyranny of the 1%.” But ending “the tyranny of the 1%” is more [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Volunteer Journal: Episode 67 &#8211; I Take a Shower with PETA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ladies and Gentleman, the following is an account of my weirdest volunteer activity as TheGoodMuse- yet. I had never volunteered with PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), but then I got this email, which said something like&#8230; Come take a shower in the middle of the LA Convention Center to promote water conservation [...]]]></description>

		<title>TheGoodMuse Explains: What&#8217;s The Lamest Thing About Volunteering?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After an in-depth investigation of male hostility towards Jane Austen and adoration of  all things thong we return this week to the focus of this blog and answer&#8230; What is the lamest thing about volunteering? And how do we fix it. Shockingly, the answer isn&#8217;t waking up early on a Saturday or Sunday, which is often [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Volunteer Journal: Episode 66 – AIDS Walk LA! Don’t Hate ‘Cause We’re Fierce!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If AIDS Walk LA (which raised over 3 million dollars to benefit people living with HIV) was a video game it would go something like this: Your car zooms through the back street of West Hollywood and Beverly Hills avoiding the mass of traffic trying to get into free parking at the Beverly Center. Get [...]]]></description>

		<title>TheGoodMuse Explains: Why Men Love Thongs and Hate Jane Austen?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why men* love thongs and hate Jane Austen? Now I know I promised an answer to this almost universal truth and mind bender weeks ago.  Sorry.  I had to do some research and then I discovered it’s a long answer.  Again, sorry. While quizzing males I got a variety of answers from “Because thongs are [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Volunteer Journal: Episode 65 – The Trevor Project</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“Suicide is the third leading cause of death among 15 to 24 year olds.” Downer opening but, let&#8217;s face it, 15-24 is rough. For many of us it&#8217;s the worse time of our life.  Almost impossible. You get raging hormones, a new body, acne, and hair in random places. You want to experiment with stuff, [...]]]></description>

		<title>UPDATE! My Volunteer Journal: Episode 64 &#8211; Angels from Heaven Save a Muse &amp; a Kitten</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in April, I had a dirty, starving kitten in a Frito Lays box shoved into my arms.  I didn’t really have a clue how I was going to find it a home. I didn’t have the time or resources. I just knew kitten rehab was required. As usual the person who dropped the baby [...]]]></description>

		<title>How I Spent My Summer Vacation by TheGoodMuse</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the kiddies starting back to school. I didn’t do anything really major this summer. Nothing really.  Just went to Alaska to see my plays done in Valdez.  Then produced “The Reaper,” “Things Unsaid,” and “Sweet Nothings” with a star studded cast in the Hollywood Fringe Festival.  I worked with legendary actors Robert Pine, Peter [...]]]></description>
