This evening I met up with co-workers at Andina for a farewell party for a colleague who is no longer working with us. She’s a fun girl, my former fellow co-Eyetalian. I do miss her and the old office shennanigans. This evening we laughed so much my cough came back. I still [...]

I woke up to an icy parking lot. It snowed last night. Thankfully, Shadow was nestled in her little box, warm.
So, this evening I saw an ad for a new show on NBC called “Lipstick Jungle“, starring Brooke Shields, which was created by the writers of “Sex & the City”, which follows the [...]

I got up and quickly dressed for Church. I put my writing stuff in a bag. I fed my kitties - my two babies and our temporary outdoor tennant. I had made signs to post in the surrounding neighborhoods – I will print them on Monday, post them immediately, and hopefully will hear from an owner [...]

This evening I went to Andina to help my friends Erik and Carolyn celebrate Erik’s birthday. We had a group of 15 in the privite dining room downstairs. Their friends were celebrating another birthday and it soon became a toast to all January birthdays, so I got in on the celebratory action. Dinner [...]

I was supposed to meet my friends at Park Kitchen tonight, but I pooped out. I got home and Shadow was right there waiting for me. I think she’s starting to get attached to me! I must confess, I’m starting to get a little attached to her. I now refer to her [...]

Tonight, I drove straight to Urban Wineworks to meet Claudia. We went over to her friend’s apartment, enjoyed a bottle of Zardetto Prosecco and headed out to the Portland Lumberjax Lacrosse game. The Jax were playing the Colorado Mammoth; they were ahead during most of the game, but then lost by a [...]

This morning I went to the Asthma Allergy Centre in Tigard. I have been convinced that I have bad allergies, not to mention a deviated septum. Today, I finally got some answers. I had a scratch test done and there was absolutely no indication of any allergic reaction to the Oregon-focused allergens, [...]

While I was busy today at work creating wine shelf talkers in Illustrator my sister called me to tell me actor Heath Ledger had died. She knew he was one of my “heart throbs” who had a keen resemblance to my high school sweetheart. I was stunned. I immediately went online to [...]

This evening my funny little fuzzy black cat, that’s either a stray or a neglected neighborhood kitty, and I think she’s the latter, was curled up on the fluffy beach towel I had folded and kept outside of my front door in case she’d reappear. It has been unseasonably cold. Extremely cold [...]

I got up early today and headed down to the northwest to New Renaissance Book Store for a workshop on Spiritual Writing. I was hoping this would give me some insights on publishing my novel. It had occurred to me that I should, perhaps, re-strategize this book and market it as an [...]
