Tonight at dinner –– SK(W) and JW(K) and a surprise guest starring visit from LLS –– the waiter spotted Belle and said, “Just looking at her makes me happy.” Tell me about it! And then the staff gave her this enormous platter of bones, filet mignon and chicken fillets. H...

Today began with Val picking me up on her scooter to attend my first SF Rusty Wells yoga class.  [Technically, I took a workshop of his about 8 years ago in NYC. so not my first class.] Riding on the back of a scooter was super-fun;  it’s like a cross between my convertible and walking, more or less....

Argh!  The Blue Angels … how they torment my little dog. It was midday when they started and I was at my mailbox picking up not one, but two client checks … when suddenly they started tearing apart the sky. Belle did something slightly even more shocking than not swimming (as she did yesterday)...

This morning at 7:45 am-ish the Comcast guy came to lay the DSL cable for the cottage. The decline is semi-inexplicable, but basically, I’d been living fine on 4 bars most of the time, but lately it’s been now down to 2 bars on the wireless from SK(W)’s set-up. 2 Bars means that downloadi...

Maybe it’s that I started the day at 4 am –– and then went back to sleep until 5 am –– in order to teach my 6 am yoga client. And then returning home at 7:15 am, found MIRACLE parking given that the entire hill has sawhorses with dire parking warnings re: filming of THE INTERNSHIP (starring Owen Wilson, Vi...

Whenever I leave Belle for 10 minutes, for example, to cross the street and put the laundry in the dryer, she’s always ecstatic to see me. When I returned after 1 day in Vancouver earlier this year, she danced around in circles forever. But often with longer trips, she’s quite delighted for a m...

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 ...

Rounding the corner this am at 8:20, saw Philip –– recognizing him from both his great hair + his aura + the fuchsia t-shirt we made for him for TEAM LLS –– and swooped to pick him up in my convertible to take him to our planned 9 am Bikram class. LLS joined us there, and it was super-fun to have them shar...

Let me cut to the chase:  I passed my driver’s test. Last night, in my dreams, I remember that I went to get the results and was told that my test had been archived for future generations, even though I had one answer wrong.  Why, I asked?  The Dream DMV person said, “It’s ...
