first there was alice, my beloved nikon…. she died a swift, nonsensical, parts & defectives death. poor alice. next was tamara. tamara my obstinate camera. she’s fickle and temperate, and likes to hide in unknown pockets, purses and the floor of my prius. we’re still working on our relationship, two years passed by. we had [...]

i’m not a big fan of miss valentine. i find her rather force-fed and contrived. yet last year i revised my feelings for this day of 1-800-flowers & chocolates boxed. i will, once again, fill my heart with love for those who year-long get my scorn, or whom have not been very kind to me. [...]

apparently in vegas “the whole truth and nothing but the truth” means something in different in california. on bended knee i thank whomever it is for these trying, will testing, gut wrenching times. funny how in gloom’s bleak shade one can actually see some of the most beautiful colors; for light reflects in the deepest, [...]

20/20 vision, yet sometimes it feels as if i spent my day in a blindfold. as i fall asleep and recount the past ups and downs {mostly ups}, i can only vaguely recollect various moments, it’s a skim and scan at best. a veil of vaseline, smudges over details, conversations, occasions of grandeur, and bits [...]

battle of the half-wit….

yesterday i spent a solid, sixty, mind-bending, thumb-spraining seconds attempting to open my garage door with my ipod. i could feel my smug prius, in all her wannabe eco-friendliness, snigger at me as we silently rolled into the dark garage; me having finally deciphered the difference between a sleek, 1/8th of an inch, 40,0000 song [...]

friday morning loveliest to you. typically, i’m not one checking my watch every five minutes, waiting for monsieur weekend’s arrival. i like my days of the week just fine; each one unique and different in his or her own little monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday way…… and as far as when my weekend actually starts? i’m [...]

it’s just too much of a coincidence….. methinks hoffmeister lagerfeld has been shopping my coreplay classes for inspiration….. even the beauty of joan smalls and saskia de brauw, shot against the iconic hôtel du cap eden roc, can’t mask some of my signature heinous groovies. in addition to working with ladders & rings on the [...]
