OMG, Becky! I Almost Forgot…
Musical Monday. Granted, it’s Tuesday, so I’m late! Whatever! Here it is. This song reminds me of my first trip to Paris. Johnny was driving me to the airport and we were singing along to this quite loudly ’cause we were cool like that! “Story of My Life” – Social Distortion
For My Tutu
Whenever I fly to Hawaii, I always think of my Tutu so strongly. She was full of life; constantly singing, playing ukulele and dancing hula. Although she’s been gone for many years now and is buried on Kauai, these songs make me think of her – “Kaimana Hila (because she always sang it),” “The Koolaus … Continue reading
San Francisco International Film Festival
Every year I’m a participant in several of the film festivals here in San Francisco – the International Film Festival, the French Film Festival, the Italian Film Festival and occasionally the Taiwan Film Festival. My favorite, by far, is always the International Film Festival. This year I bought tickets to four films – “Key to … Continue reading

Now there are three … Continue reading
Musical Monday Is Here So Soon!
Today let’s check on Psy’s new video. I hear this dance is called “The Saucy Dance.” Can you do it?! “Gentleman” by Psy
A Helping Hand
For some reason, people constantly ask me for money. Is it because, for the most part, I seemingly have my life in order? Is it because I tend to travel a lot? The reason I’m not destitute is because I don’t live WILDLY beyond my means. I shop at CostCo, Target and Trader Joe’s for … Continue reading
My New Love
Last night I ended up going to a “BBQ party” with my last Italian teacher and two of her friends. It was over in Oakland and ended up being at some “alternative” living space. Someone was outside barbecuing ribs, the birthday girl was also outside with her glow-in-the-dark hula hoop, others were both outside and … Continue reading
