So far the fortnight of fasting that got underway on Monday – not really fasting – more like eating all my vegetables and not having any extras like alcohol or Brocato’s added to my diet – is not as bad as you would think. There is something calming about getting down to basics – and after having prepared for this week by cooking two lovely filets of drum, a saute of leeks and carrots with…
Do something you love And you will find all the energy and resources you need. Do something you hate and you will feel like hitting your head with bricks. You may quote me on this one.
I heard they moved the Rapture date since it didn’t happen a few weeks ago. Does anyone know when to expect it?
Everyone in this household woke this morning in a better mood. Don’t know why or what or who to credit so I just went with it.
There has been a preponderance of exercising people in City Park these days. I came across a herd of young boys (sans shirts) marching with a sort of skip through the grass under the majestic oaks. Then on the other side, on the great lawn, a gaggle of girls were lifting weights and grunting. Strange things are going on.
I woke this morning, day two of my own rehabilitation – as a friend recently said when I was describing the work on the bridges, I wish someone was spending $1 million to rehabilitate me. Ha!

For the past four days, Tin has said thank you and please and I’m sorry. You know just when you think things like this are never going to stick – BOOM – there they are. Persistence, consistency and sheer patience pays off in the end. You can put these answers in the back of the book that no one ever gave me.
We went to a birthday party yesterday and you ever notice how some kids just are who they are going to be at a very early age? Like Tin I am here to bet you becomes a musician – I could be wrong, but I don’t think so. There was a little girl who at seven was walking around in pink high heels and there was something about the way she looked and acted that…
We bought Tin a keyboard for his 2nd birthday and he was in love. But now it has fallen out of favor unless someone plays it who knows how to make music then he loves it. His trumpet also fell out of favor for a few weeks, in favor of his drumstick, er, um, his trombone (he uses his stick as a trombone.) A friend/blogger sent me this video of Little Richard as a child, now…
A new musical series is coming to the web and hey, the best friend is gay, so if you are looking for something fun to watch, check this trailer out for Perks.
