I find this picture –– part of a series of 33 Most Beautiful Abandoned Places –– quite haunting. It’s even more compelling that it has since sunk into the ocean. Yesterday I saw a terrific possible sublet situation (although a little too expensive) and awoke to find an email saying that the owners ha...

So I’m going to graduate school (sorta). I’ve decided to opt-in to the HootSuite University (free for my trial period and then $30 a month afterward) because well, there’s just no fighting this social media thing. I feel both early and late to the party –– and I keep fantasizing about an ...

I’m happy to say that on my secret tumblr blog where I write about my diet/exercise regime every day, reporting my weight loss (or gain), waist size, Body Fat and BMI (taken from a $40 device I bought on Amazon, so I’m not sure how precise it is), I now have exactly one follower. And frankly, I...

As I try to rein things in and simplify the volume of activities that I feel are incumbent upon me … my DATA went crazy. Meaning, AT&T texted me to tell me that I’ve used up 95% of my data for the month in the first 4 days of my billing cycle. Clearly something is wrong –– and they totally ...

Today I fully realized that things have expanded so in my life that I can’t just rely on “it’ll all work out” as a scheduling strategy. I am a master scheduler, having lived for many years in NYC via private yoga clients, and now scheduling my creative ones (across three continents ...

That Freud and Jung were very funny. At least they are in THE COUCH starring my friend Courtney Walsh. It was heartening to the new play I’m writing, when tonight as the Artistic Director made her short curtain speech about turning cell phones off and said that the play was very funny and the woman b...

But apparently not on the page. I’m now about to sit down and deal with the copy editing notes from my publisher’s person, 98% of which are about double spaces after periods –– which I still believe in thanks to my youth in front of a typewriter! I could maybe go through it with a g...

Say what you will, nothing works for a regime like a juice cleanse combined with Bikram. Seriously, the two together are unstoppable.   [Although I did have a bit of a very faint, dull headache this morning which I realized was withdrawing from caffeine.] Anyway, so many promotion things in the works for t...

The honeymoon is over. I fell in love with the incredible salt water pool at my new YMCA. I love it’s lack of chlorine and that the pool is immaculate and that it’s rarely crowded. Yet today, I was asked to move out of my 2 person lane so that a 5 year-old could have a swimming lesson. This put...
