Snapshots
— Almost done with The Richard Burton Diaries. An extraordinary document. My God, what a mind. The diaries often make me laugh out loud, but there’s this hugely tragic keen in them, the lure of alcohol which was a losing … Continue reading

— Got together with my friend Jen the other night. It’s been a while. There was so much to catch up on. I miss her! Of course I had to fill her in on Supernatural (which she has never seen), … Continue reading

— I took a bellydancing class with a friend of mine on Tuesday and it was extremely challenging, I was turned into a giant tomato-headed sweatball, wearing a drenched Elvis T-shirt, and I was still feeling it the next day. … Continue reading
Snapshots
— Reading a book on the fall of Yugoslavia. Can’t get enough of the Balkans. When times get tough, I usually start reading books about war. Maybe it satisfies my need for carnage and revenge. Who knows. I recently saw … Continue reading
