First long hot afternoon of the
year

Sent email to Yuko

5th (Saturday)   [Woman in a

Nice conversation with Tamie,
one of the girls who works
with Myle. Double overtime from
Calgary, who had a chance to
win the Cup, won by Tampa 3/2

6th (Sunday)   [Woman in a

7th (Monday)   [Woman in a
Spanish Hat]
'Beijing' woman thinking
'Factory Girl' should have
been wearing overalls instead
of a sweater. Tampa Bay wins
Stanley Cup this evening, 2-1

8th (Tuesday)   [Woman in a
Spanish Hat]
Clear, sunny, warm

9th (Wednesday)   [Woman in a
Spanish Hat]
Trying to catch up to Melinda,
a fast walker swirling this
way & that down the aisles

10th (Thursday)   [Woman in a
Spanish Hat]
Smiled & said 'Hi' to the girl
at the flower stand, Howe &
Pender. Myle describing the
different types of headaches
she gets. Asked me to put my
hand on top of her head to
feel how hot it was. Dropped
in on Melinda, & met her
charming friend. Cool &
raining this evening

11th (Friday)   [Woman in a
Spanish Hat]
Overcast, cool, with a misty
rain falling

12th (Saturday)
Met Heather at Davie & Jervis,
who was on her way to
confession. Another overcast,
cool & wet afternoon. 'French
Connection II', late

14th (Monday)
Myle suggesting to me, if
Tamie remembers to bring the
photos, 'You have to buy me
an almond -'. 'If she doesn't'?
'You have to... do another
portrait of me.' Girl on the
bus in a black dress, dark
hair with a small ponytail
with a lovely profile, black
shoes something like ballet
style, with criss-crossing
straps. Had her feet in a
stylish 'pose', a work of art
by themselves. Sunny, just a
touch of warmth
