There is a saying in Croatian for getting up on the wrong side of the bed and that’s getting up on your left foot. I did. Loca did. Loca tried to attack my yoga teacher’s dog.
This from my neighborhood email list: At 5:45 p.m. this afternoon, my next-door-neighbors encountered a man in front of their house. He was a light-skinned African man, in his 40’s or early 50’s, incoherent, and wearing plaid pants. My neighbors asked him if he needed anything, and then he took a wad of money out of his pocket and started to eat the money. They called the police. If you don’t believe me, there are small…
Daily Affirmation September 22, 2008 I enter into the fall season with joy in my heart as I accept the colorful scenery, knowing it is blessing my life with its abundance and glory.
There are a lot of reasons to be down – I could start counting them – the industry that I write about is in turmoil, the industry that I work for is in turmoil, the city I live in suffers from hurricane-itis, my truck needed repair, shall I continue?

I’d go back to bed. Both Loca and I were sick for the latter part of the weekend – she went down first on Saturday night with horrible diarrhea, then I got up Sunday morning and thought that two glasses of wine was too much for a hangover, and by the time I was crying my eyes out over an article in the Sunday NYT about a man who wrote about his baby who died…

We’ve had such a fun weekend but it all came crashing down this morning when I woke up feeling sick – I knew the couple of glasses of wine at the…
Here’s a great option, and a wonderful and productive idea. Planned Parenthood is all about choice, and education and decisions that are best for the health of everyone. So consider this: Instead of (or, in addition to) sending around more emails “voicing our concerns” about Gov. Sarah Palin, let’s honor her more. Let’s all make a $10 donation to Planned Parenthood. In Sarah Palin’s name. And here’s the good part: when you make a donation…
Went to see Elegy today at Canal Place. The cinematography was lush and the acting superb by Ben Kingsley, Patricia Clarkson, and Peter Sarsgaard. Definitely worth your time.
I was speaking to an overseas friend this morning while T and I sat on the screen porch having our tea and breakfast. He said he was having a hard time at work because management kept layering on nebulous goals and then changing the game plan and stressing everyone out over making their numbers. I said these are tough times. But I don’t think anyone is unscathed. I met a woman the other night at…
