I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this woman. AnneMarie has an infectious joy about here that she gladly shares with everyone she meets. She is not only a huge part of our amazing community, she is a creator of it, an alchemist of people and delight. Her parties are top notch, her friends are all true-blue die hards, her costumes are beyond fabulous, and the love she has and shares makes me ever so grateful she is part of my CHOSEN family!! No matter what you are doing, if she's around, you are guaranteed to have an amazing, pee-in-your pants good time and I love that about her!!xoxoxoxoxo

about me
I'm an infectiously positive person - and it's not an act, I really think life is grand.
Being "SaladBar" is all about being healthy, colorful, alive, and full of variety. I may be a wildly costumed dancer on weekends, or doing home projects, or hiking in the forest, or on the phone closing deals as an executive recruiter (something I do well, and enjoy).
Every form of expression can be beautiful, and every aspect of life should be enjoyed.
Try to be reasonable in the way you grow, and don't ever think it is too late. It is never too late. Even if you are going to die tomorrow, keep yourself straight and clear and be a happy human being today. If you keep your situation happy day by day, you will eventually reach the greatest happiness of enlightenment.

Last year was really difficult for me. I don't feel like blogging the horrid details, so let's just assume it was an overwh...

ChrisP and I were meant to meet.
We almost met at a Piscean party where I was dancing with the fan, and he was taking pictures of me as a flowery whirling dervish. We never even spoke, but I know it's true because he posted the photos on his website.
We might have met on the Playa, where he was spinning fire with some of my oldest and dearest friends.....but I stayed home (the other "home") to negotiate a job offer.
We definitely should have met at LA Decom, where I was dancing aroun...

So after an epic night at Lucent L'amour, Chris and I were on the deck, in that bliss/exhaustion zone, staring at clouds and pretty much doing nothing. We started talking about how relaxation is not an activity, or a lack of activity, but really more of a state of mind. Every moment we can decide to be happy...or not...
This hit my inbox this morning and sums it up nicely:
Mindfulness is not just a word or a discourse by the Buddha, but a meaningful state of mind. It means we have t...

Love yourself and be awake-
Today, tomorrow, always.
First establish yourself in the way,
Then teach others,
And so defeat sorrow.
To straighten the crooked
You must first do a harder thing-
Straighten yourself.
You are your only master.
Who else?
Subdue yourself,
And discover your master.
