Recently readSorry, but I had to ditch the last template (which I really liked) because the distributor wanted me to insert link spam into it. I don’t have the energy or inclination for that fight, so I need to sort out a new template. This one’s not it, but it’s a short-term stopgap. Thanks for your […]

I leave for the US tomorrow, and I have much to do before I set off. Also, I’m in a bit of a negative frame of mind right now (to put it mildly), largely as a result of the dread I feel of being apart from Antoine for 22 days. It’s just a bummer, though […]

The tough get procrastinating. This afternoon, I baked Le Gâteau Piège for Antoine, which was super-easy and smells great. And I don’t even like to bake. (Haven’t tasted it yet, but I’m sure it’s lovely.)
Procrastination over, I just finished writing the reading I will give at my best friend’s wedding next Saturday. Please hope, for […]

I just got back to London a couple of hours ago, and am now trying to catch up with real life. If you are one of the hundreds I owe phone calls or email, your patience is appreciated. It is so good to be back here, but the backlog is scaring the scheisse out of […]

…why I don’t live here anymore. You really can’t go home again. (On a related note, I’ve had this song in my head for the last six days. Enjoy, if you can, because it’s driving me batshit.)

I just want to apologise to everyone who has sent me really helpful, supportive, kind emails lately, emails that have meant a lot to me and given me much food for thought, because I haven’t written back to many of you (JH, AB, TT, and others). It’s not a snub. I have a lot of […]

Just a quick post to say that I am truly overwhelmed by the response - in my comments, via email, and on so many blogs - to the post about my assault. I cannot thank everyone individually at this time, but please know that your support means a lot. I was unsure as to whether […]

I really need to work on my presentation for this weekend’s Liberty 2006 conference, so don’t expect any blogging until after the weekend. And if I do show up here, running my mouth, please smack me in it.
