Lying in bed & reading

My life is always a little bit crazy with long work hours, board memberships, city council candidates, fundraisers, committees, going to the gym, seeing my friends and boyfriend... the best thing i can do to recharge and spend a little time with just me is to get under the covers and pull out a favorite book, like i always did as a kid. It never fails to bring me some peace and a sense of stability.

Lesson learned: What comforted me way back when, still comforts me now.

Me Time

Now that I'm back on the west coast and have a car, me time is defined by getting in the car and cruising to 89.9 KCRW, Hot 92.3, or in the Bay Area 98.1 KISS FM or 89.5 KPOO. I've been using driving as me time since I first got my car in 1991.

Lesson learned: Some people have retail therapy... some have hygiene therapy... I have carbon footprint based therapy.

Stillness in Time

"Me" time is when I wake up on Sunday morning, looking out my living room window, everything is quiet, no cars on the street, the morning air is crisp, The City seems so at peace, then the "City" of Oakland starts to wake up and I hear the police sirens....

Lesson Learned: When we’re sleep GOD is having his “ME” time.

Man in the Mirror

Good 'me' time is a Friday night, after work, in the bathroom mirror--- grooming. Getting ready to go out, while listening to my latest Jamiroquai mix.

Lesson learned: Some people have "retail therapy", I have "hygienic therapy".
