...this is who I want to be: the Burning Girl, not burdened by the fetish of all those things I have created, and had to
leave behind. I am a nomad, I have no history to turn back to...
.: Tilsim Cafe:.
Tilsim was my cat, her name means 'magic'. I still miss her. She was all black
with penetrating green eyes, a real Istanbul lady. I promised I will give her name to my coffee shop. So this is it.
.:Musings:.
I read: Sirens of Titan, Remembering Jack, A Man Without a Country, Player Piano I am reading: Hemingway: Complete Short Stories, Slaughterhouse Five, The Second Sex The last three movies I watched: Man From Earth, Fur, Ocean 13 What I have done this year that I haven't done before: Be a mom A day absolutely ordinaire: Latte at a coffee shop and daily news from the Washington Post (hm this hasn't changed :)) Wbat is in: Buying designer outfits at a discount
Who: Leman What I do from dusk till dawn: Be a mom My pet ghost: Selmin My source of inspiration:Lalita I live: in a cozy town home with an Italian garden with my beautiful baby girl Lara and our pet Kotmish I learned: "The longer I live the more I see that I am never wrong about anything, and that all the pains that I have so humbly taken to verify my notions have only wasted my time." -George Bernard Shaw
Our Lalita's first time in her pink stroller. We are planning to introduce her to the cultural vanguard and museums in Washington - can't wait for her to grow a little bit more, but not too much :)
