Girlfriend Days

Yesterday, I left Jeff and Jacob to come to Long Beach Island on the New Jersey Shore. Purpose? Hang out with two dear friends and do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but sit on the Atlantic Ocean beach, cook and drink. And of course, talk. This year, there is no one in crisis; no impending divorces, no children... Sign in to see full entry.

Brandt Foundation Art Center, Greenwich, CT

It's late and I'm tired. Not the best time for me to write, but I've been shirking my responsibilities here lately and have to get on track. Today, I drove 10 minutes to Peter Brandt and Stephanie Seymour's house. They are getting a divorce - a bitter split to say the least - but their rolling-hills... Sign in to see full entry.

Every so often, I realize I haven't been here, on this site, for awhile. Summer is usually my busy travel research time - and despite the bloodletting in print publications, I'm still out there either working on coveted assignments or trying to drum up new ones. This past July 4th weekend, I took... Sign in to see full entry.

Who's Governing the Governors?

Governor Sanford of South Carolina has joined the "Governors Against Fidelity (GAF)" Club. I'm wondering whether those running for that particular post must swear to lie, cheat and run around before taking the Oath of Office. It boggles my mind to think that a politician feels that he/she can get... Sign in to see full entry.

Hudson River Revival, Clearwater Festival 2009

I'm trying to write up my short piece about the Clearwater Hudson River Revival Festival that I attended this past weekend, but gloomy weather beats down my muse. Of course, it wasn't much clearer on Saturday, when I drove 45 minutes to Croton-On-Hudson, NY to attend the annual fundraiser that keeps... Sign in to see full entry.

Rain

Rain, rain, rain. Rain, rain, rain. I feel as if I'm in the middle of a dress rehearsal for The Great Flood, and I'm just waiting for my ark to float on by. Are those deer, chipmunks, bunnies and groundhogs outside lining up two by two for some reason? This is not the best beginning to a sailing... Sign in to see full entry.

The Hangover

There are "chick flicks" and then there are "dick flicks" and the new movie, The Hangover belongs firmly in the latter camp. Initially, I had no desire to see this movie, but when my 18-soon-to-be-19 year old son, Ben, told me that all of his friends thought it was one of the funniest movies they'd...

Twitter Trends

I'm not a Twitterholic, but I do check in ever so often to read tweets from the streets - the streets being editors, pr people, my friends and others. One of my Facebook friends stated, "I don't know what I could get on Twitter that I don't get on Facebook," to which I replied, "Twitter gives you... Sign in to see full entry.

Fried Brain

No, I'm not talking about "shock therapy." I'm merely describing my mental capabilities at the moment after just a few hours of sleep last night, and not much more the previous several nights. It seems that my body has developed a fondness for Hong Kong time while stateside demands on my time have... Sign in to see full entry.
