The ultimate compliment to any woman, in my opinion, is being acknowledged as the muse for a magnificent work of art. Like the traditional muses of Greek myth, Pattie Boyd instilled inspiration within two of Rock and Roll's greatest heroes: George Harrison and Eric Clapton. She was the influence behind the songs "Something" and "Layla," respectively. Her presence became a guiding light for the creativity that Harrison kept hidden in the dark, and even though she broke his heart, this Beatles gal loves her.

Current Obsession: Sexist Ads from the 60s and 70s
Had I the ill luck to have been a woman of the 60s I think I would have killed myself with a frying pan.

San Francisco Street Art
I tasted the city this weekend, and it left me ravenous for more. Its streets are amply filled with spray can morsels and succulent stencils. Its walls are dressed to impress, inviting me to peek up their skirts and take a look at what they are hiding between their thighs...and I must admit, I was impressed. I turned my back on the city, satisfied, knowing this was just the appetizer...the main course comes this summer...and dessert has yet to be planned.

The King of Limbs...
...has made me the Queen of Smiles. For anyone who has ever denied that music is a valid form of art or therapy, take a listen to this album. As musicians evolve their sound, it usually comes to a disappointing end, but not in the special case of Radiohead. They have accrued an immunity to it. They go on to amaze me with their continued connection to my creative soul. For the next few weeks, as I eat, sleep, drink, and shit these "Limbs", I will be in the best of moods. I have been hungry for this. I will overindulge. I will become numb. I will ignore you. I will evolve.
