Ana Banana

17Apr08

My sister is awesome. We had a brief conversation about a secret project regarding bananas I was tasked with at work. Thoughts of being punked by my co-workers swam around my head so I didn’t really take the idea very far or seriously. Funny enough, Ana (aka Tinet) took it upon herself to experiment. She vacuum sealed a banana using a Food Saver. Her latest finding is the banana is off gassing causing the plastic to expand. She also said, laughing in a beavis and butthead way, “it’s sweating inside”. She’s also excited for the banana to explode…REALLY excited. Makes me wonder what other types of experiments she’s conducting at home.

My Food Saver envy deepens.

Walking in LA

09Apr08

we walked until the weather under our clothes became balmy.

we stopped at Lola’s, a place known for the martinis, so said the server.

dirty martinis and hushpuppies had me up at 5am with the bbruns.


This morning as everyone congregated outside of my office cube for coffee talk, a co-worker whom I do not personally know, stopped by to tell me she liked my outfit.

-Here is the conversation-

Her: [pointing] I really love your thing.

Me: [smiling] Thank you. I have matching pants but I think it would be too much to wear all at once.

Her: But it would be educational for all of us.

Me: [quizzically tilting head] huh…

Her: You should get on the classifieds (through our work portal). There’s this guy that’s looking for a place for he and his wife to stay while they’re in India. If you have family or friends there maybe you can let them know.

She walked away as soon as she finished her sentence. I was so taken aback I didn’t have the chance to tell her that I am not Indian…………………I do really like curry though……….Oh, and Darjeeling Limited is one of my favorite movies.

It is that rare glimpse in time where you feel comfortably naked and safe with the collective conscientiousness. It is in these moments that pure beauty will grip you senselessly. I love this scene.


french pressed coffee with real half and half, soft boiled eggs with truffle salt, a walk on the beach with the 16th president, a vera project fundraiser with some of my favorite girls, a brief phone conversation to rapture my heart and a home cooked dinner with my rollicking family.

i <3 u sunday.
