(+ plenty of dog adventures)

I’m happy to say that on my secret tumblr blog where I write about my diet/exercise regime every day, reporting my weight loss (or gain), waist size, Body Fat and BMI (taken from a $40 device I bought on Amazon, so I’m not sure how precise it is), I now have exactly one follower. And frankly, I...
Today I fully realized that things have expanded so in my life that I can’t just rely on “it’ll all work out” as a scheduling strategy. I am a master scheduler, having lived for many years in NYC via private yoga clients, and now scheduling my creative ones (across three continents ...
The honeymoon is over. I fell in love with the incredible salt water pool at my new YMCA. I love it’s lack of chlorine and that the pool is immaculate and that it’s rarely crowded. Yet today, I was asked to move out of my 2 person lane so that a 5 year-old could have a swimming lesson. This put...
I think the hardest thing about looking for apartments when you’re overly creative, is that you are constantly projecting yourself into them not only as a tenant, but also in a Big Picture sense of “what would my life be like if I lived here….?” It’s exhausting. I’m not ...

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...
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...
