First time this is challenging to write as I just got back into SF post 4am wake-up for 6 am flight.  But I will be a disciplined writer and forge on! Post TRIXIE + PEANUT, I … Spent the morning on complex financial transactions (a tax payment, then a confirming call to the IRS — we are on grea...

Belle’s first signing was a triumph. Trixie + Peanut was an ideal venue. So heartening that the first two people there who bought books were  … STRANGERS!  This great guy who learned of it through twitter and then another woman who was shopping in the store and drawn to the book. So many wonder...

Sunday in NYC — So utterly immersive an experience, almost feeling as though I’ve never left. Delightful breakfast with Amy, Lenn, young Harry, and of course Belle at Cafeteria — very SEX IN THE CITY vibe (including the first time in a long time I’ve waited in line for brunch.) Drop...

Traveled to NYC from Oakland yesterday with Belle who was angelic on the flight.  Truly — she barely stirred.  Endless compliments from strangers. Our first segment was delayed after we boarded because an over-zealous passenger whacked an Emergency Exit sign out of place when removing carry...

Wrote this entry however many thousand feet in the air — saved it — and now it’s gone.  Have landed in NYC and pre-sleep, must summarize Friday. Friday — 11/11/11 — and at 11:11 am frolicked with Susan on the phone and 11:11 pm dove into a hot bath to cleanse and renew. My Lot...

So I showed up for my 3pm haircut at Sal’s and … I was a full week early. Clearly he and I are NOT aligned. At first, I was frustrated in that I did respond to his Old World, no-nonsense online vibe but he was entirely unaccommodating — no “I could squeeze you in here maybe” &...

Now I so wish I could just write about how awesome this moment was yesterday when I faxed over the signed option agreement to my Hollywood Friend who’s championing the novel. But in all honesty, I feel that I have to let Page 6 have first crack at this. I can hint though:  someone who’s cast 50...

Subbing for Jasmine at 9 am was sublime.  The yogis were hardcore sweet.  Ended up playing tons of Nina Simone, thus felt there wasn’t so much I could say to compete and just let the class flow. Lunch in Oakland with new friend/Bestselling Author Amy Ahlers (her new book is #1 in a zillion self-help ...

Monday was somehow easy and amazing.  Perhaps my brain has indeed been rewired, as I woke up like a new person and everything seemed fresh and positive and EASY. Although I did show up for a haircut appointment that did not exist.  This guy has awesome reviews on Yelp (although this photo seems a little So...
