And by that I mean my new sunglasses, which are amazing. I’ve been limping along with a $5 pair I bought in a thrift store on the way to the wine country with Adrian in February when I realized I needed to do SOMETHING. But today my new Warby Parker pair arrived and it’s, quite frankly, a total...

So many strange ups and downs today. Awoke with just enough time to quickly walk Belle and race to Bikram. I realized I have been feeling a little over-stretched in my lower back and I don’t know if it’s coming from my Olympian efforts in class, or the jump roping, or walking up and down the hi...

My driver’s license expires on my birthday in three weeks and I’ve been confounded by that. The last time I had my license renewed it was automatic and it was in NYC. Somehow, the NYC people sent my renewal forms to Florida (where I was this summer on a project) and seem sorta willing to let me...

With all my pre-birthday goals zipping along, I re-remembered that according to the SECRET LANGUAGE OF BIRTHDAYS I was born on the day of the Disconnected Unconscious.  And then I looked closely for the first time at the symbolism the book offers for my Special Day which seems to be a large wooden keg &...

Lately I’ve taken such great pleasure in watching bootleg videos of unreleased Streisand recordings. I don’t know how or where these things come from but they are –– to me at least –– mesmerizing on so many levels.  [I mean, it was the pre-iphone 1988 … did she not observe someone was fil...

Somehow the day got away with me. An awesome client call at noon, followed by errands –– ink needed to print out the script for my rewrite + a game-changing new cap –– somehow diverted me almost until 4:30 Bikram. Swung by Val & Clark’s afterwards where Jonah was watching ...

This is a photo of the boat Jonah made for me at dinner (he made one for everyone) at Hillstone tonight with Susan and Val. Today –– after a lot of tapping last night –– was an extraordinarily easy-flowing day. Coffee at Acre and then an easy 12 minutes of jump rope (three 4 minute ...

This morning Belle and I went for a morning beach walk, her first since last Thursday when the car went to the shop until this week. The little dog was overdue and overjoyed. I needed to soak myself afterwards and went to the spa.  It’s the second part of Naomi Campbell’s recommendation (the fi...

In the “only in San Francisco” category, on the way home from teaching my private today, Belle and I stumbled across a basketful of glitter.  (Or maybe, technically, tinsel.) Who left such a thing on high on the hill? One great client call followed by a snazzy new client I’m particul...
