i’m grateful for…

1) making a mix inspired by j’s–Songs That Save Me. 6.8 hours of tunes so far

2) kermit singing the rainbow connection

3) going to a book party at peter max’s gallery tonight. the colors. his potent wife talking about food and saying lots of cool things (too tired to quote)

4) that victoria signed her “love-powered diet” book to me by calling me a “love-powered woman.” which, you know, i’m sure that’s how she signed everybody’s but i love it. wanna frame it.

5) that i had a supercool email exchange with a graphic artist living in prague when i tried to track down an old design of his so i could use on the other blog: http://www.robsog.org. (see design at left, and now in green on his blog). the interwebs really rock sometimes.

6) my hot pink obe belt

7) amy winehouse singing the crap out of my name

8) having perhaps started a breakthrough of sorts

9) ani

10) my mystical connection to the berkshire mountains, which seem to come to me even when i can’t go to them

11) reminders to be present

12) brightly colored colanders at whole foods

13) that the bears are back. left their caves for another wild summer of loping and eating and feeding and protecting and playing and being cute and fierce
