Texted Reanne, 'Photographed your artwork this afternoon
Wow! The linework on your Phoenix is sublime! Btw, u
inspired an idea for the Van Gogh homage. Gonna start it
tomorrow.' She replied, 'Oh thanks Richard. I'm so excited
to see ur work.' Nice to see the last Minnesota Viking
playoff game outdoors in the subzero, evoking old memories
'Midnight in Paris' this evening, thinking of Reanne

11th (Monday)   [Girl from Port-of-Spain]
Texted Reanne, 'Happy Birthday Reanne!!' 'Know this will be
your healing year cause 32 is a beautiful number!' She
texted back, 'O thank u Richard! I believe so too.' Mild,
wet weather

First get together with Michelle this year, at Harbour
Centre, who's looking forward to a year of online
courses. Kana with no idea who Van Gogh was, Joyce not
entirely sure who Chiang was. Happy to hear the Rams are
moving back to Los Angeles. Dark, steady rain

Long day of work on the portrait, seven hours of football
playing in the background

18th (Monday)   [Girl from Port-of-Spain]
Texted Reanne that the portrait was finished, did she want
to meet up for tea? She texted back, 'Yeah how about
tomorrow around 11:30?' 'Blenz Coffee' Myle called around
noon, who was shopping at Costco & had only two items in
her cart, she told me. Mild, dry, overcast

19th (Tuesday)
Tea with Reanne at Blenz for 3+ hrs. Showed her the drawing
of course (Rad!) & talked about everything from art to
astronomy to Minori. After tea had Chinese food at
Tinseltown
