Waiting to fly.

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

Portland airport. I’m on my way to Tucson for the giant To Bead True Blue show at the Manning House, where I will be selling beads and jewelry in the Redondo Pavilion. 6 days. Maybe I am crazy for doing the largest bead type of event in the US so early in my career. But [...]

I am back from the library with my copy of Nick Bantock’s new book. I thought for sure it would be totally mobbed by wait listers, but there were two copies not even out! So I got it today and I am thrilled. Big difference from my wait-listed spot for “Water for Elephants,” I am [...]

Monday, January 22nd, 2007

isn’t strange there are a few foods out there that seem to always be one brand? herring in sour cream/wine sauce: Vita pickled mixed veggies: Mezzetta Can you think of any others? Today was very busy. I walked to one store nearby, and went to all the other stores I needed to in one swoop [...]

Lunesse.com has housed an online journal/blog/diary THING now for over TEN YEARS. I crossed that mark shortly before Thanksgiving in 2006. Freaky. I have what, 5 readers now? I love them as much as my hundreds back in the heyday. Here’s to another tenĀ  years. =)

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

I had this slight beef with the local NPR station, OPB. Every morning between 9 and 11 was “Performance Today,” which is classical music. I like classical music.
