So it’s the first day of Autumn 2005! I’m happy because I’m going to visit my mom and dad and brother and niece for the weekend. But my thoughts are with the rest of the world who aren’t so happy. I was in Houston in 1983 with my mom and dad when Hurricane Alicia hit Galveston. We were fine but although we were more than 50 miles inland, we lost all power and I remember
listening to the news in the middle of the night, in the dark, by a battery powered radio. Trees fell in my mom and dad’s neighbourhood north of Houston. It was scary. The little radio was wonderful and to still be able to listen with all the power out was very exciting. I’m going to order another one. You can get them from LL Bean for about $15. You hand crank them and they are amazing. You can get news from all over the world. My brother and niece were visting me over the Christmas holidays last year and
we lost power for over 24 hours from the torrential rains that we had in Southern California . My niece (she’s only 9!) had bought my brother one of these radios and I listened to the news of the Tsunami victims, halfway across the world on this little radio. It’s quite bizarre and really removes you from the world that we think we live in.

For everyone who was concerned about my blue mood because of my last diary, thank you very very much for your concern about me. I was sad (and still am) about certain people I know who are suffering. One little boy I know is dying of cancer and I just can’t understand why he was chosen to suffer and his parents as well. I just don’t understand why. Why? I may have said this
before but I think it’s worth saying again…a good friend of mine said I take other people’s suffering too personally. I can’t help it. This is the world I live in and it’s the only world I have. I think we should all take other’s suffering personally. I know we can’t prevent natural disasters but they are devastating enough. We still can’t prevent cancer and other diseases, but we can work on finding a cure. We can try to live in a world of peace and I believe that is what most of us want. Sometimes I’m not
sure. Oh, have you seen “Crash”? I rented it last night. It’s a film, set in Los Angeles with characters of many different ethnic backgrounds… where you want to throttle, slap and embrace the characters. It is quite a powerful film. Well, it left me in tears…that’s not too hard to do these days! But it leaves you questioning: Why do people end up so hateful and how
do we erase all the injustices of past history and start anew? OK… Move on! I get too wound up in wanting the world to be beautiful for everyone. I’m a hopeless romantic and a fool.

But I’m a good wrestler and not a bad boxer! Check out the upcoming ring fights that I produced (Big THANKYOU!!! NO that’s an understatement!!! HUGE thank you to Double Trouble Productions for letting me use their ring!!!) There are 4 new PRO FEMMES fights 1/Robin vs Liz Lightspeed 2/Robin vs Honey from the UK 3/ Kristy vs Honey (Poor Honey!) 4/ Kristy vs Liz Lightspeed…
These are Great Pro and submission Wrestling action!!! I also threw in a new BOXING video…Yes! Liz and I go at it! She’s tough! I ended up with a few bruises and a swollen elbow but it knocked my flu right out of me! Yes I was just recovering from the flu so I wasn’t going to do the Boxing on Monday because I had a sore throat and fever over the weekend and I still felt slightly feverish on Monday morning. I did it because 2 of the girls I hired for the PRO Wrestling didn’t show up and I didn’t want to waste the
time I had for the ring and also because Harry(yes! Harry!) nagged me to do it! So Liz and I had a blast slamming our fists (well gloved fists!) into each other. It’s Wednesday night and I’m still sore as hell. But Harry, if you read this, Thank YOU! I’m glad I did it. It’s a great video!

I took Harley, my lil’ dog, running late this afternoon (Rachel doesn’t go running anymore…only short walks) and I was really feeling it!!! I want to do an extreme match with Liz, then Liz against kristy! I’m exhausted now.

OK, gotta pack for my trip tomorrow. Life can be very very beautiful and life can deal us a lot of blows…so don’t forget to count your blessings every morning when you wake up and every night when you go to sleep. I call it prayer to the universe. I wish you all a beautiful day, this first day of Autumn. And thank you for visiting my website! Peace and Love to you all!
