I don’t remember who said that but I like that as a motto for life. One woman can live many lives in one lifetime. I had dinner with someone who is marrying at 45 and going to try for another baby. Wow. Speaking of babies, we got an email back that two African American women pregnant with baby girls are looking for someone to adopt but alas, not gay someones, just hetero someones. I can’t…
Women galore are wearing metallic shoes in New York City – really they look so unbelievably tacky – bronze, pewter okay but gold and silver – yikes!
My thoughts are with Natasha Richardson’s family. Poor thing – so young and beautiful.
Okay so it isn’t freezing cold here and I was on my way back to the conference from a lunch appointment and popped into Henri Bendel and it was like a shopping fantasy land. Now I know why I hate shopping in New Orleans. So then I just browsed Banana Republic because I had just been there in NOLA and was wondering if the chains were downgrading us or something – turns out that BR’s…
I woke this morning in a hotel room with that feeling of “Where am I?” and believe me that was a loaded question. When I turned on the light in the bathroom, I saw the red dotted face from whatever has bit me or made me allergic. And then I started making the slow progression into where am I.

“Tell her we are not getting a bigger kennel.” “Westies can’t stay in the kennel for ten hours.” “Our dog is just a normal dog, why should it need a bigger kennel?” “It’s not that I’m not listening to you, it’s just that I don’t think this is as big a deal as it is becoming.” Tomorrow there is no rehearsal, so you are free to do what you want. Amid whirring, honking, shuffling, sirens.
On the way to yoga, I heard Evan Christopher playing his clarinet on WWOZ and next he was chatting in the studio. Later on the way to the airport, I heard TR’s smooth voice introducing Danny Boy, appropriate for St. Patty’s Day. At the Louis Armstrong airport, a woman said, “Where’d ya get those shrimps?” “Um umm” another woman said, “they sure look good.” The gentlemen who looked at my ticket said, “I just got…
In the past twenty four hours, we have received numerous contact with people who have adopted through private adoption in the US, championing our cause and urging us onward. We’ve also received a note saying there is a possible baby. So how do you plan your future without a baby and simultaneously plan for a maybe baby?
I’m headed to a conference in New York and it is cold there. It is stunningly beautiful in New Orleans. People are depressed there from the cold and the news. People are laid back and happy here. Why leave paradise? Because it’s hard to make a living in New Orleans, that’s why.
Marin County has the highest incidence of breast cancer in the world. Some believe that the demo of affluent white older women might be the cause – as they tend to go to the doctor sooner and are diagnosed earlier. Others blame bottled water. Yes, that’s right, this demographic of women were the early adopters of the strange bottled water craze. We’re going green at the LaLa and have done away with all bottled water.…
