I haven’t seen my arch-nemesis at Bikram in a few days and it’s felt a little off, frankly. Is she plotting against me full-time? Has something gone terribly wrong for her? [And if you don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s the original POST about it.] Anyway, I was specula...

Although I’ve long been a complicated yet passionate fan, I’d never heard of The Streisand Effect until yesterday. Basically, this dude and his company compiled 12,000 photos of the California Coastline for a government sanctioned program about land erosion.  Apparently, Barbra flipped out that...

Those were the angels I received during our (highly abbreviated) 1 hour transformation game with Susan and Joshua today (first time player). Other updates for the day (Bikram, long chat with Andrea Lake) but I am struck by the connection to my transformation question (about next creative projects) and this...

Here was Belle’s day today. Waking at 6 and allowing me to putter with things like meditation/alignment. Beach walk at 7:30 where she passionately swam and chased sticks in the ocean for 45 minutes. Supervising a photoshoot I volunteered to do for my friend Rhiannon.   [At one point, when the sun was...

I finished re-filing and organizing everything today and it was MAJOR.  [Filing cabinets, shelves, closets, and drawers.] Part of it was that the physical embodiment of stuff for me really reflects all my mental stuff, and so re-sorting a lot of business and personal things inside my head, was concretized ...

I did a lot of organizational work today, but just as I was doing a little research for future projects, I came across this and found it mind-blowing. You know my last name is Vilga, right? –– you’re here on my website after all –– but have you heard of “Vilgax” from the Cartoon Network s...

That’s what they call it –– “Voluntary Surrender” –– when you call the finance company that you’re leasing-to-own your car from and discuss trading up with a new model before the lease is up:  VOLUNTARY SURRENDER. It does sound INSANELY DRAMATIC and vaguely New Age-y all at once. An...

Sarah and I swung by the BMW dealership since I’m contemplating a mini-Cooper. What’s astonishing is that we were basically TOTALLY ignored, even though I was pretty direct about being ready, willing, and able to buy. Are things really going THAT well for the folks at San Francisco BMW?  [It ma...

I cannot even begin to tell you how much I loved, Marina Abramović The Artist Is Present. I started out merely curious and then became passionately involved. I don’t think the trailer fairly represents the film in terms of its impact and emphasis (there’s too much about the “shock” ...
