I fasted all day yesterday. Never done that before. It’s interesting how much we think of food and how food ads and food images are everywhere. And of course when you can’t eat, it’s Obsess City. We were watching “Project Greenlight” on HBO last night and they’re having a script meeting and in typical Hollywood fashion they’re eating takeout and I say to Kathy, “Can you tell what they’re eating?” And she says, “You’re not even interested in what they’re
saying, are you?” and I said, “No, I just want some of that great looking food.”

In spite of the fasting and fast trips to the bathroom, I actually got five paintings going of Vera. Finally got a likeness, need to shift gears and do some action stuff.

Also washed the truck and swam laps.

Kathy is driving me into Scottsdale for my morning colonoscopy (6:40). Hope I can work this afternoon.
