A few months ago, I saw someone giving away these four chairs down the street, and even though I really only needed one, I took them all. First I took two (just in case) and then it seemed silly to break up the set. I only needed one because I am only one person and I have a chair in this magical yet tiny ...

It means that this website is fully back and up and that I’m generally to totally satisfied with all our revisions yesterday. Maybe you’re not spending every waking moment on this site, but I felt that I was today. We shifted the logo.  Added another image at the bottom. Added a “hello ba...

My new assistant needs an assistant –– at least one. Things are so crazy busy –– especially with Mercury in Retrograde –– that he’s going to start pre-interviewing interns for me for some of the social media stuff re: the novel’s release in June. In other suc...

Well, it very well may be my storage facility. My storage in LA –– and I have to get the stuff moved to San Francisco, although since I haven’t needed anything except a picnic basket from there in 18 months, maybe I don’t –– is so grim and depressing, it makes you question all your life choices...

Today I taught my yoga client at 7 am and then just made it –– after an 8:05 trip to Whole Foods to buy their Sashimi-ready salmon and grab a latte –– to Bikram for my friend Jennifer’s 9 am class. And then a zillion phones calls and emails and 2 clients … And then to the incredible saltwater p...

Really tired –– perhaps because I’ve been working until 3 am + I’ve quintupled my workouts –– and going to bed before midnight for once. Time to reconnect with my bed. Ran today for the first time in what feels like forever (although I realize I did a little bit in Florida 2 summers ago.) I als...

After my plateau, I made great strides in my Lumosity scores today + I am proud to say (and did say on my secret Tumblr blog) that I’m down 0.7% in body fat, too. However, in one newer game Koi Pond where you have to feed each fish a pellet with a three second delay between each feeding (note:  the f...

Dismayed to wake up after a day of  perfect fitness and diet to find that … I am exactly the same. Down to the tenth of a pound, or fraction of an inch, or percentage of BMI (Body Mass Index.) I don’t know what I was expecting, but I wanted at least a little reward after all my Good Behavior. I...
