No problem at all my dear, but let's say Monday as I'm really on the run on Friday and may not be in the office at all - so how's around 11 am on Monday?
Cheers, R
Hey darling - on my way home - sitting in Montreal airport (7 hour layover - aaargh). Great to see Alanis on the daily artist page - leave her up for a couple of days anyway - will we get together wednesday? I'll have a cheque for you, we can talk the 48th.... tomorrow will be a good decompression day and I should be all keen to be back at it soon! see you soon, rose x
Also Jenina say on the post that this comes to us from Anne Troake - I usually do that when I post someone else's posts, like Rhaina for example, or the Good Wife post from Annette... thanks.
Yes watching the doc right now - about 20 minutes. Very sad, strange - the terrible loneliness, the extraordinary lack of self esteem. I feel particularly sad for the british computer guy - he's completely baffled by why he can't get a girl and frankly so am I!! Outside of the fact of course that he has sex with rubber dolls.... The tongue, the vagina, the doll repair guy, shite.... I agree with you, post with a warning for disturbing content.
Jenina, Anna Troake just sent me this link about men and inflatable dolls - can you have a look as I'm dashing through the door and not back here until later this evening. Anne thought it would make a good blog post for discussion.... see what you think. Thanks!

The new bi-weeekly feature is great! Well done my dear. I think I will post something about this insane censorship move by the Harper government as well. Have just sent a letter to the minister of heritage. On front page of globe today some Christian fundamentalist is saying he helped pressure the government to table the new censorship legislation and he talks about no tax credits for films 'promoting' homosexuality! Can you believe it! Have a great weekend darling - all goes well up here, I'm just plugging along with meetings all over hell's half acre.... but out to dinner with my friend Charlotte tonight so looking forward to that. xx
I can't make it as you probably know by now (sorry i didn't get back to you till now!) I had to take the girl (aka alex my daughter) to guitar lessons, and not it's 8:30 and I think I might be ready for bed soon (after another hour of work I have to do) No rest for the wicked. My number is 579-1153 btw. Hope you're having a swell evening. It was very fun having Indian last night birthday girl!
Helloo! - I love the Nan Goldin artist feature! Yeah things are moving along - great day yesterday and today just hiding out from the brutal cold and setting up more interviews. I have had to extend my stay - it was just too short for me to get back on Tuesday night. Almost everyone I wanted to talk to was unavailable to me until Tuesday when I would be gone! So now I'm coming Thursday night the 6th. And then just 3 weeks until I leave for Paris. Eeeek!
Great if you can have an informal chat with Irene but no big deal one way or the other. We will get to it all in good time! Just replied to your post about Hillary - I do agree with you that gender is not her only problem but honestly think it might be her biggest problem. I just read about a poll of American voters in The Guardian and' barely half believe the US is ready for a woman president'. Oh god I wonder if it will be John McCain after all - because I don't know if Obama's inexperience can stand the test of a presidential election. Although McCain is better than Huckabee!
Hope all is well with you and please use my office whenever you feel like it - give Frank a big hug from me for his birthday! Cheers, Rosemary
I'll try to call you tonight later on. Would that be good. Rosie told me how to do the links - I was using firefox and I need to be in safari. Hope you had fun at the Ship....I am up to my eyes in projects - hopefully calm down a bit on mOnday...
Hi all,
just an update to say that Cherie Pyne has gracefully accepted to be the producer on my very first album "When Women Kill". It's a mix of songs dealing with when women kill others with intention, or unintentionally, or themselves. Fun wha?…

I'm older than you and have kids, but when I was your age, I felt the urge to have children for the first time - a very strong urge that was completely irrational, and very surprising.
I became pregnant with a one night stand, and was tempted to kee…
