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....

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...

Tomorrow is Another Day was the first title Margaret Mitchell had for Gone With The Wind.  Other proposed titles include Bugles Sang True, Not in Our Stars, and Tote the Weary Load.   My friend Sarah posted today on The Face Place that it was her birthday (she was born in 1900) and I found myself compelled...

Well, at least for your own shoes. Thus says the sign at the spa where I did the hot/cold plunge regime today (required as per my beauty mentor Naomi Campbell.) I do feel entirely refreshed each time I visit the spa (also incredibly clean as well).  It pretty much always works for me as a mood-clarifier. I...

SK(W) and JW(K) returned tonight and we had dinner at Plant and it was as if no one had ever left –– even though massive moves were/are taking place. Earlier Belle got her way and we had a beach trip, although I’ve found myself resisting sending out a big email newsletter that I should really get out...

LLS gave me a cute little notebook before she left –– I have an enormous addiction to blank notebooks –– and I decided to start recording all the instances of “subtle magic” I experience. The phrase originates from the Abraham Cruise and I heard it again this weekend as I listened to the CDs wh...

I almost enjoyed Prometheus –– even though I felt obliged to fast forward through the silliest gory parts and, when I realized that my rental window was rapidly closing, skimmed through the boring parts –– but honestly, it makes no sense. Years ago, I had dinner and hung out briefly...

Today, I sorta –– more or less –– took off. I did manage to re-adjust my scanner and complete the forms my accountant needed. And I cleared 2.4 mysterious gigs on my iPhone (a weird tip on askdifferent worked). But then I drove off to the Marin Mini Dealership to see if I had won the $30,000 giveaway –– wh...
