Pilates was so wonderful this morning – I am in love with Catherine – she just always finds new places to challenge my body. The LaLa – what can I say? – the glass is going up in my windows – the azure clerestory was being put in when I went by – ah, gorgeous windows and so many beautiful things to look out at. CC’s has been packed since it opened back up –…
Forget the coffee klatch, the wine swirling is way more fun BUT here’s the key – do it on a full stomach – that’s what saved me from overdoing last night. Meanwhile, it was good to catch up with G and to have R join us and to talk like biddies because there is always so much to talk about when it comes to shoes, men, careers, weight, hair, New Orleans, etc. I’ll save some…
I sent an email to my hairdresser D in San Francisco to get his new address because I know he opened his own salon. He sends back this missive: well…..as one of my conservative client said when she saw the new space…….quote “this place just makes me want to lay on the floor naked with my legs spread open”…………..and I said BINGO.
Resolutions for new year include a little more down time – reading, writing, (no arithmetic) – I get caught up in the swirl of things – the apartment at the Can is a place I want to get out of most of the time and after being tethered to my computer and the phone all day, I crave the company of physical beings where I can see expressions and have other tactile sensations. But lately…
Last night, I woke up at 2:30 to the sound of a man talking incessantly to someone on the phone (I assumed because I only hear one voice). This has been happening for the last two or three months. It goes on and on until about 5:30 and it’s like he is in the room with me because it is the dead of night and I hear his voice so clearly. I went down to…
The past week has been fraught with bad news about children getting killed in schools – maybe we ought to switch all the kids behind bars to keep them safe?
San Francisco has no seasons except cold summers – but fall is initiated with the thunderous sound of jets courtesy of the Blue Angels who come out for Fleet Week – it’s truly one of my favorite times to be there – only I won’t be there, I will be driving to Sacramento to see my friend L and the jets will fly far away from where we are.
Yom Kippur means simply the day of atonement – atone for your sins. Check. I woke up pleasantly without the barrage of consumer electronics – blackberry, instant message, cell phone, home phone – and the day unraveled in a good way – I think everyone needs to take at least one of these days a year – look back over your year, figure out what went wrong and what went right, and make some personal…
So by this time tomorrow night my slate will be wiped clean. I feel a sin coming on.
A friend has spent the last three days with a man in hot pursuit, bird dogging her in an unrelenting fashion, she found out haphazzardly he’s married. Things that make you go hmmm. Watching this new series – Brothers and Sisters – Rachel Griffiths character says to a man she has feelings for – “I don’t know if being in sync with a man who is not my husband is worse than not being in…
