I’m only here for the weekend, but it’s my first time in Tokyo! Here are my first impressions: The sun rises at around 4:30 in the morning (I wake at about 4). I have a view of Mt. Fuji from ...


…I shouldn’t have gone to Dallas last weekend: 10. The rather odd invitation to the wedding reception. Super T. invited me to be his date and stay with him for the weekend—after all we have (...


Situation: Dinner with a vendor and Angie, a co-worker Place: One of those chain restaurants that’s big and quasi-fancy and expensive. Doesn’t feel 100% chainy per se, but you can just tell. ...


Sitting in the Southwest terminal at LAX…again. Time to leave the sunshine and sexiness of this city and head back to the Great Midwest. Its gorgeous days like this that make me wish I lived h...


Today was a gorgeous day. I knew it was going to be, so when the cat woke me at 5:45 this morning looking for breakfast, I got up and changed all the clocks. Figured since it was really 6:45, ...


Hello. Writing entry from brand spanking new laptop. Love her—Sweet ‘Shiba. Looking forward to many entries together. Week is over, though I have lots to do this weekend, workwise. It’s alr...


First thing’s first. Look at what came in the mail while I was gone: I’ve spent most of my morning making and drinking delicious cappuccinos. I am wired to the hilt. Obligatory Trip Report: ...


Lord. What the hell? It’s not that I have nothing to write, I guess it’s just that I have nothing really new to write. It’s all the same old shite, and I’m getting tired of repeating myself. ...


Office day! It’s been a whole week since I’ve been in the office. How time flies! And what a difference a week makes, eh? The work is completely piled up on my desk, but I need to take a m...


I’m getting ready for my big dog and pony show. It has NOT been a good week. Especially yesterday. I actually had to leave the building, forcing back tears after the president took a few rips...


Things in my life that are broken: My home computer. She just sputtered and died one day back in January. I think it was January. All my days and nights seem to whiz by. May have even been...


It’s Saturday evening, and I’ve been here at the office since noon, doing this half-work/half-procrastination thing that I’m so familiar with during this time of year. I guess it’s good to have...


Saturday, Febrary 5th : Fly into LAX Call from Movie Director, telling me we’re eating somewhere fancy Frantically shop for something nice to wear for rest of day (I’d only brought very ...


So I pick up a couple of bottles of wine and drive over to Aaron’s place. He’s cooking me dinner. When I get there, though I can hardly breathe because of the illness, the house smells amazing...


Main Street, Park City Aah, the Sundance Film Festival. I had no idea what to expect. And I also realize that not being the movie buff that I probably should have been to be hanging out and a...


But now I’m back and reality is smacking me in the face. Fantasy can be cool, but you pay for it. I’m sick again. I think I may have a recurrence of that nasty strep throat I had a few months...


Sorry about that. So from our last episode, the plane finally takes off (after a 6-hour delay), and I have severe ants in my pants. I’m sitting next to the grumpiest guy. He is not thrilled...


I don’t even know where to begin. The last week will go down in history as one of the most surreal weeks of my life. I should be happy that I’m back again, nice and warm and sleeping in my own...


Back home again on an S80 aircraft. I realize that this should be routine and painfully boring by now, but I still adore it with a passion. Oh no, not the flight part. I still hate flying. I...


Yes, it does make me sad that it appears I’ve turned into some kind of thirtysomething slut whose only priority is getting attention from men. It’s pretty painful to hear, and I’m ashamed. I s...


So much to write, but I squandered my weekend away, and ran out of time to write all about my latest…adventures (?). Stuff I need to write about: NY last week, starting with seeing Jeff (of ...


Tsunami:I haven’t yet heard back from my friend in Sri Lanka. He did write back once to tell me that he’s working on the website thing, etc…but no news since then. I’m going to send him anothe...


Home from work today, as I was too chicken to drive the icy roads. I don’t do well in icy situations. Snow, not as bad. But ice? I suck royally and freak myself out when I start sliding arou...


Well hello, 2005! When did you get here? Oh man, it’s almost afternoon, it’s raining and dreary, and I just got home and snuggled into my jammies. I am not leaving the house today. MMMMMmm.. ...


A note regarding the previous entry: my friend who sent the e-mail is a native Indian (from India), has lived all over the world, including South America, Europe, Africa, and most recently, Sou...
