forty? thirty-seven? are they really that different? yesterday was my take on the daniel day lewis starring, paul thomas anderson directed film, “there will be blood.” except in my version the more apt title was: ”there will be butter.” having blown off another ”l.a. workshop” in order to play with the family instead {can you say “flake?”} hunkiest, a backseat of white [...]

well so much for the good night sleep diet… last night, my tummy full of l-tryptophan, and free of caffeine, salt and sugar, i embedded myself between sheet and mattress for what i had hoped to be a solid 9 hours+ of reclaimed sleep. three hours in to my salvaged slumber, a beast by my [...]
