Bow in the presence of greatness...

Non, je ne regrette rien...

Some time ago, I wrote a book. I used to say that it was me telling the most beautiful story every told but it was really me just telling a story that I never wanted to forget. A story that I wanted to share with the entire world because just like at times it brought out the worse in me, it also brought out the very best out of me.

I wrote the story and I didn't even bother to change the names (though I did put it under fiction in case my memory was pulling a James Frey on me). I wrote this fabulous story that defined and proved every abstract concept I believed in. I wrote this incredible story and one day I deleted it because I didn't want anyone else to read it.

It really was kinda' personal...
(but even so, that was a really stupid move on my part)

After that long writing break I took earlier this year, I started writing it again but the story is not as good as it was. Or I can't tell it in the same way. I know that I feel very differently about all that now; but that shouldn't affect the memory of how that really went- if that makes any sense. Though maybe it is that it has stopped being so personal...

I like pictures. They are evidence of a particular point in time.
Writing, not so much.

Kristhina's friends...

...apparently we all have VERY good taste in clothes!

BEBE, here is your dress as modeled by three average people from three different locations (Canada, NJ, Miami) at Mansion last Friday night.

At least we were all wearing it in a different color!

Update...

the concern is no longer a concern.

one less thing to worry about...
