Catching up with L after her spell out of town and the Monday, the work day, beginning reluctantly for us both, going out for coffee, taking a slow walk back with coffee, sitting down finally outside The Building on the picturesquest of mornings.. talking about what other ways she could make money that would not so bother the painting life.. hold for despair, then a broken sound from the street, a truck hitting a bump with extraordinary thunder causes us both to look up.. the side of said vehicle reads large: “Creative Satisfaction.”
