The psychics are angry. I’m noticing a weird pattern. And I’ve deduced that either a) I’m evil b) I’m dying very soon c) They can read my mind (as in they are all telepaths) Because every time I pass a psychic on the street in Bali, which I have to tell you, is quite frequently, …
Jesus came to tea the other day. I always wanted to write that line. John told me that he runs a business in town. I look at him, sitting on our Bale, long brown hair, sorrowful face, beard (no stigmata that I can see) and I ask John if at board meetings he sits on …
There’s a part half way through where I’m pouring sweat, literally pouring, as if my body has sprung several leaks, and I realize that I can’t move my shoulder or neck anymore. I decide to take a break. I pant my way to the water cooler. It’s ecstatic dance. Everyone by the water cooler is …
I just watched Ugly Betty. Guilty pleasure. Up there with Lainey Gossip and well, just plain old gossip. Alula loves ‘Beddy’ as she calls her. She thinks she’s a princess (which makes me proud – she can see past the braces and the fugly at the tender age of 4 and recognize the beauty within). …
I am starting to wonder if there’s anyone in Ubud who believes in the theory of evolution. It’s not that Ubud is home to Christian fundamentalists all preaching creationism, hating on gays and believing we’re descended from Adam and Eve. Oh no, nothing like that.

‘I know what you need,’ Suki says when I tell her I feel really crappy. Steak. I am thinking I need steak. When I woke up this morning that was the first thing that popped into my head. I WANT STEAK. In the same way that most people wake up and go ‘oooh I fancy …
At the start of every year I always make a list of all the things that I want to do in that year. 2010’s list went like this: 1. Travel around the world 2. Get published 3. Find a new home 4. Write two more books 5. Learn to meditate 6. Road trip USA 7. …
Things I could do today in Ubud: Learn about Sacred Commerce (but first I’d have to understand what that meant) Join with others in a Galactic and Universal Movement of Consciousness which will bring back Heaven on Earth (but smoking dope here could lead to 500 years hard labour so I’m not sure what the …
‘I want you to introduce yourselves and give me one word which describes how you’re feeling now.’ Bored. Can I say bored? No, that’s rude. What about highly sceptical? No, also rude. Resistant? Well if she can read my aura she knows this already. I’ll go with tired. Tired is inoffensive. Oooh crap, my turn. …
So what better reason to break into a five star hotel? Driving up to the valet point in our rusting hunk of metal should have outed us as not that rich but the dudes with the wavy bomb detector things let us on through. They even parked our pringle encrusted car for us (hey I …
