Re: trick or Grace.

OMG, it's the 8th of march! in Italy it's full of mimose everywhere in this day, but in mexico they don't have them probably...they go instead totally nuts for St Valentine's day here, like in south america.
Good occasion to remind to any woman (and man actually) who didn't yet, to read The Second Sex of Simone de Beauvoir.

"Sophia I was thinking of you in the elevator, staring at the DO button. "door open"." HOW COOL! that IS a good omen for my shifty soul...

So you did part from the father of your son when he was 2 1/2, Lake is 3 1/2 and Erik and I are pretty much there, best friends and all but...what is it about children that people split when they come? (or what is it about people?)
How beautiful to have a son who writes! the one possible future of Lake that I dread is that he might become a catholic priest, the most splendid is writer or musician, previewably.

You and your sweetheart would be the joy of master Dogen, I'll think of you when I feel the world is hard and cold and I can't sleep.
