Halloween felt so over-the-top this year, maybe because it’s my first in San Francisco — where people seem really into it — and also probably because since it was a Monday, I saw people out Fri/Sat/Sun and Monday.  Since when does Halloween justify a four day weekend? I was more or l...

It was an utterly perfect day weather-wise in San Francisco, but my horoscope on Astro.com was dead on: Buried Tensions ** Be extremely careful of your tendency toward moody irritability at this time. You are very subject to outbreaks of irrational and compulsive behavior that will not serve your bes...

Yesterday, I swear I searched for five full minutes for matches to light one of the burners on the stove, only to discover that they’d been there the entire time. Or at least I think so … Bashar –– my favorite channeled alien –– speaks a lot about shifting between endles...

Morning conversation with my amazing producer-to-be re: the novel’s option and her attorney about the contracts.  There will soon be a “break out the champagne” moment but this was just really nitty-gritty clauses and such (versus our exuberant “let’s put on a show”...

A morning organizing my things in the...

First day in SF.  Woke up in the magical cottage feeling ready for my new life — which seems like a nice extension of my old life (which was pretty great to begin with.) Susan (aka SARK) had photo and video shoots scheduled for her new teaching products and it was really fun for Belle and me to be pr...

Today I had my second meeting at La Grainne which Belle and I both love. The day began, however at Bosie, my friends Nicky and Kiley’s tea parlor in the West Village, with breakfast with Sarah Herrington (an awesome red-haired poet/yoga teacher).  Sarah is fantastic and so is Bosie — I am deter...
