I think it’s safe to say that my 2024 has been a real journey so far. I can’t even put into words how excited I am about this project, and how much I’ve enjoyed working with both Omid and Emily on it. I’m even more excited to executive produce with them! A very big thank you to both of them, as well as the teams at UTA and Universal, especially Mary Pender, who knocked this one out of the freaking park. Now back to drafting… by @robinbenway

Some slices of life from the past few months! BTS with the bestie; made some new friends; enjoyed some fine dining; bought an oversized chambray shirt so I can look like your 7th grade art teacher; found a peacock; attempted to watch the Dodgers while sharing a hammock with the local neighborhood watch; got a mammogram on my birthday (get them checked, friends!), went to the beach and swam in the ocean; and ate Cheetos in honor of America. So far, so good, summer. Let’s keep it going. by @robinbenway

A few months ago, as part of a fundraiser with @maedayrescue, I took Marnie to see a pet psychic, the awesome @stacey_justis. (Let’s be honest, I could not get there fast enough.) It ended up being a super emotional experience, at least for me, and I highly recommend it for any and all pet people! But one thing she said was that Marnie wanted to go to the beach, and you know what? So did I. She had the most wonderful time running around, chasing the sandpipers, and testing out the water (not a fan). Today’s her gotcha day AND her golden birthday - 4 on the 4th! - so happy day to my little Marn Marn. I love you lots and lots. Let’s go to the beach again soon. 💗 by @robinbenway
