darlings we haven’t been able to get ANYWHERE near the MacBook Air these past few days as who-we-are-in-RL has been very busy Completing Tasks before we head on the Trip to (three islands in) Europe. but here we are. ready. happy that who-we-are-in-RL has been pulling in the consultancy gigs to keep us in satin […]
darlings this *might* well be a mystical one – read on. or not. as you wish. *smilessweetly* but we hope you do. because it was a bloody good sunrise this morning so it’s worth it for the Pictures alone even if the words make you scratch just behind your left ear with some wry yet […]
darlings it had to happen. one flight too many (flight 10 of 10 is due to leave LATER THAN EXPECTED but at least it is DUE to leave….bear with us)…… (this was flight 9 of 10) an arrival in Manhattan (well, JFK is strictly nowhere near manhattan but we digress) at 10.25PM last night. and […]
darlings while who-we-are-in-RL is judging (in a good way, because The Bookmarks national digital awards of SOUTH AFRICA asked specifically if she would, you see) we’ve met some Fascinating People and made a few Tiny Alterations* to who-we-are-in-RL’s speech for Tuesday – in Johannesburg (hurrah! flight 5 of 10!) – as she’s giving a Workshop (most […]
darlings do you remember the Dinner Party we attended the other evening that we could not tell you anything about? well, we happened to be looking online for something else (yes, we lie) and suddenly (still not exactly being truthful) we “found” a picture from that evening Had Been Published. would you like to see […]
darlings we’ve had a Lovely few hours in Brooklyn and now we pack our simply silver surprisingly lightweight samsonite suitcase (with wheels) and wait for the Town car to take us to the Airport and back to the Other Coast once more. but first – some pictures – because it was a truly glorious day […]
darlings tis very strange and grey/gray/overcast outside the window – it doesn’t look like los angeles at All – more like an out-of-season bank holiday weekend at an english resort town. *lookstocamera* oh. wait. all the bank holidays are In Season, right? but still terrible weather if we recall rightly. back to the simile and […]
darlings a delicious evening’s entertainment at the sumptuous Clark Memorial Library for a new iambic pentameter (as opposed to the tougher-to-make-amusing-in-english Alexandrine form, of course) translation of Pierre Corneille’s The Liar hosted by the UCLA Center for 17th and 18th Century Studies (yes, we felt Most at Home). the email (how modern) arrived a few short weeks ago […]
darlings the jet lag has descended and not-having-our-reading-glasses (grrr, Delta Airlines Lost Property has Not responded as yet) means that we bought some shop-bought ones but they appear to have given us a halo dizzy shimmery effect out of the Right eye. but the good news is that we spent the past sixteen hours (when […]
darlings tis strange and surreal to be back Here (where we lived for 7 years if you’ve just joined us – and Welcome if you have *winninglooktocamera*) and rather Glorious, of course. we had a coffee and a bagel at the counter of a 1929 coffee shop on Fifth and it all felt very teamgloria […]
