commitment to new places

January 12, 2010

I just bought a gift certificate to spend at Ventana–a place I have never been before.
See, The Stranger has this swell feature, promoting local businesses (sorry, just Seattle) and everything is 50% off. So, I spent $25.00 to get a $50.00 certificate.
I believe that all y’all ought to slip over to the “Mart” and pick [...]

on the prowl

January 7, 2010

There was an amazing gold brocade opera coat in the window, and that drew me in.
I was in a bit of a rush, so I did not ask to try it on, and not like I am in a position to pay $300.00 for yet another coat. But it is a glorious coat, and who [...]

at the oasis

January 1, 2010

The project is off to a auspicious start. I have already two accomplices, as well as two new tattoos.
One accomplice is promising up adventures that will make my head spin, and the other is coming along for my ride–in her own fashion of course, but odds are good that we will have some overlapping LBD [...]

new beginnings

January 1, 2010

New Year’s day, 2010. Consciously putting some parts of the past waaaaay behind me and generally upgrading my life as we know it.
Okay, maybe you don’t know my life (yet), but here’s the important bit. As 2009 was waning, I had a few occasions to reach into the way back of my wardrobe, and dust [...]
