We got colorful to head down to Woldenberg Park and film the music video with Chuck today. When we got there several groups were already leaving because it was like herding cats trying to get out the door. It was well worth it though – one part was a drummer’s circle that was a bunch of little boys playing the drums and they were all so talented I could have just eaten them up. One…
I pinned the glazed red heart cookie – a tradition from Zagreb – over my heart today because my heart is in Zagreb yet again. Since I whine enough about it – the other girls were feeling my pain.

I told T the other day that the meaning of life is to live it, not to be comfortable.

We watched Wonder Boys and I drank my detox tea from my yellow happy face mug. For some reason, that seemed to work.
The other day at yoga we appealed to our master – the one inside of us – and as we called on our mind to let go of preconceived notions and allow our body to do things we do not believe are possible, we learned that the relationship between the master and student is one of love – love and let go – and great things are possible.
I went to see my masseuse today because that knot in my lower back wont go away no matter what I do and I get up out of the chair like I am 90 years old. She said you have been under a lot of stress, I can feel it all through your body. The cause of the pain is the hip flexor which are the muscles that want to put you in the fetal…
I was talking to one of my neighbors and said, “I just got back from Croatia and I feel the need to hide.” He said, “That is the most exotic sentence I have heard in years.”
