I was passing a neighbor this morning with Loca and she said, “Big night.” And I said, “I can barely watch, I loathe her so much.” Neighbor says, “Yeah, but all she has to do is not fuck up and she could win votes.” Got back to my desk and had an email from a friend: I am SICK of hearing how Biden has to be careful tomorrow because he’s debating “a woman”! I’ve heard…
Happy first day of October! It’s absolutely gorgeous outside but how would I know other than by looking out of my window. I’ve been on go go go mode since getting up and today it has been hard to find those minutes or moments to take a deep breath and zen out. So right now – everyone get up from your desk and move your hips side to side and put a big smile on…
September 30, 2008 Today I am opening to the possibility that all is perfect. My life is perfect, and I am perfect. I welcome every event as divinely ordained, looking for the greater truth.
I was thinking about the current situation in the United States – at war with a phantom enemy, a crumbling financial market, health care substandard, impoverished educational system, not to mention a whole host of other diseases such as dire poverty (as witnessed during Katrina). A friend pings me from Chicago and asks how I am doing in the midst of market tumult and I say, remarkably calm. I ping a colleague and ask he…
Last night, I gardened way until after dark. As I was planting the flowers in the front yard, I was babysitting my neighbor’s son, who wasn’t feeling well, and she wanted a run.

My mother was always going to plant a garden. I heard this statement every place we lived and we lived a lot of place – countries, cities, states, neighborhoods – we were always moving and mom was always going to plant a garden. I bought pentas and some snowwhite euphorbia and red flames to plant in the garden this week. There is not much growing season left. Most plants won’t have time to mature before…
Say no more: “They [Bush, McCain, Republican incumbents] claim to be free market advocates when it’s really an anything-goes mentality: No regulation, no supervision, no discipline. And if you fail, you will have a golden parachute and the taxpayer will bail you out. Those days are over. The party is over,” Pelosi said.
Everything you think do and say is in the pill you took today…… Remember the song In The Year 2525 that starts off with if man is still alive and goes on to describe a bleak view of technological progress? Well it’s the year 5769 by the Jewish calendar starting tonight and I wonder what our world view is – yes, these are some interesting times – the fall of the US Empire, cataclysmic weather…
The other night I was speaking to a writer at a party and he said, “Katrina books came out in droves around September ’06, and none of them sold.” Old news.
