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...

I’ve been eager to do more structural work on the play today –– specifically The Snowflake Method –- but so many errands have proven so compelling. I had to stop by Staples for DVDs labels and cases because one of those cruise lines has ordered a 100 Yoga In Bed DVDs. Then my beloved Apple Store beca...

That’s what they call it –– “Voluntary Surrender” –– when you call the finance company that you’re leasing-to-own your car from and discuss trading up with a new model before the lease is up:  VOLUNTARY SURRENDER. It does sound INSANELY DRAMATIC and vaguely New Age-y all at once. An...

My refined mailing list has been a total success story.  An extremely high OPEN rate (and it’s actually even higher since Constant Contact admits it can’t always tell who’s opened it), that is more than twice their standard. However, when I looked at the OPT-OUTS (a mere 1.4% of my l...

Aljandro González Iñarritu’s film 21 GRAMS is entitled because of a 21st century physician’s research that the human body weighed 21 grams less after death (roughly 3/4 of an ounce).  IE, that’s what the soul must weigh. Oddly, today in Bikram, my before and after weight were exactly 3 po...

Today I enjoyed one of the best birthday gifts EVER:  a tapping sessions with Kate Winch around issues of abundance. I’ve been a fan of her recordings and telecalls (there’s one on Saturday — today, obviously depending on when you’re reading this) at 10 am Pacific Time and I thoroug...

Today, Val called for a spontaneous pedicure and I sped off to meet her, to be joined by Jonah (age 8) for the three of us to get our nails painted. Jonah got your basic black rocker nails;  Val got a sky blue that was perfect for her newly painted bedroom;  and I got an ASTONISHING sparkling blue/silver/g...

Oddly, I missed a day blogging –– something I haven’t done since starting I think –– yesterday on my Birthday.  But WOW … what a day. First, was Bikram in the morning.  90 minutes of heat to warm me up for the dropbacks.  Bev, the studio owner, announced my birthday in class several times and i...

(Technically, this is me at Christmas Time –– but since I’m getting lots of presents, I figure it counts as a good birthday substitute.) Today –– Bikram at 9 with Adrian, followed by attending the owner Bev’s birthday party, conveniently just down the street from us at an awesome pizza place I&...
