Oh, Hey, Look! I Have a Blog.

It's not that I don't love you. Or food. Or that I haven't been dining out. Or that I haven't been dining out at new places. It's just that...well, I just don't know.

Something has made me lax in the writing dept. I could blame it all on Diner #3, but the kid goes to sleep at 7 p.m. so it can't be that fucking simple now, can it?

I've been a whole slew of places that I have yet to write about: Spruce, Beretta, Zinnia, etc., etc. and though I've enjoyed them all, I just haven't been *inspired.* Sometimes I get inspired, and then I think "gee, I should throw in another load of never-fucking-ending laundry, or sleep, or shower, or think about auditioning again, or call that friend, or gouge my eye out with a red hot poker because Diner #3 won't take a fucking nap."

So I made a New Year's Resolution: to visit this little corner of the web more often in 2009, whether anyone is still reading or not. And if David and Catherine get their way, I just might start one of those shitty mommy blogs too.

xoxo

If knowing that you have readers is at all inspiring you to keep writing, then here you go.
And I'll probably read your shitty mommy blog too if you promise to keep cursing uncontrollably in your description of child-rearing in SF.

Joy,

I still come back over and over waiting and hoping for more of your f***ing awesome writing. I have been wishing you would get over your funk and come back and flirt with us and tell us what for.

So... Please! Please! Please! Start writing about all the great places you have been to lately. Show the chefs and your fans some love already!!

Cheers dear,

~ Paula
