I was playing Jessye Norman and Kathleen Battle back to back singing O Holy Night – possibly the best Christmas song written – and as great as they both can sing it – one sweet, one earthy – you know who sings this song and makes you fall on your knees? – Irma Thomas – damn, she sings O Holy Night so damn good!!!! fall on your knees, oh hear, the angel’s voices, oh night…
I ran into Gomez at Whole Foods yesterday so he bought me a cup of coffee – a damn expensive one – and we were talking about men and women and how men tend to overlook how frightening they can be to a woman sometimes and how women live with the knowledge 24/7 that men have physical power over them and though that strength is there to help protect, the same man could potentially hurt.…
I have always been so enamored with my job because I can do it from anywhere in the world as long as there is broadband – and I’ve thought of doing it elsewhere – Cuba, New York, Istanbul – but then again as my ex father-in-law is want to say – it’s sometimes nice to just think about it rather than doing it. Nowadays, virtual offices are becoming more the norm than the exception. I…
Last night when Beth Hart was playing on the stereo, T said I love her! I said so do I! L turned me on to her. P was sitting there and said T turned her on to Beth. T laughed and said L turned me on to her. Goodness, one man is doing more to spread the gospel of Beth Hart into a lot of woman’s psyches than all her publicists combined. And now same…

There is a big push all over the country to stop having Office Holiday Parties and bring back the Christmas theme to all things December – trees are all the rage, creches are flying off the shelves, and even I bought a red dress to wear to the Bar Pilot’s Xmas Party at the Windsor Court (now that I’m not going…

I have received three “gifts” from vendors that I have purchased from in the last year – two broken pens and a 2006 Executive Planner. What’s next?
So if you get together with some friends and all topics of discussion are open, and I make great margaritas (Peter’s Margaritas), and then there are stories to tell and you are suddenly finding yourself falling off the couch cause you’re laughing so hard, would you be wishing to be somewhere else or thinking something might be better than this – not at all – one of those rare nights where everything is funny, even…
Great line by the other Elvis. This is a great quote too: When they discover the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to discover they are not it. – Bernard Bailey So why is it that you can have an email exchange with one person and feel like you’ve penetrated something, and then you can have a conversation with another, which you thought would, should, be more weighty, and yet…
M called me a pinball this morning – boing boing boing – he’s got that laid back, relaxed dude attitude that I can only get to on drugs. Since I can’t live on drugs, I bounce off walls all the time. So what? Being still is for pussies.
