I can never get a decent amount of free time to write.  Things have been hectic for months and I don\u2019t see it getting slower.  Most of my time is devoted to shooting my exhibition in Tokyo.  It\u2019s a year away but I only really have 6 more months to shoot.  I need 5 months to print murals that will be hung from the ceiling, a month for shipping, and installation.<\/p>\n<p>I plan on inviting the Emperor and Empress to the opening.  Maybe even a couple of sumo wrestlers and a random geisha.  On top of this I\u2019m shooting assignment work.  The remaining free time has been with my niece.   I now wake up at 6AM everyday.  Drinking tea on the terrace overlooking the ocean.  It\u2019s a cool way to start the day.  I do need to start getting more sleep.  I don\u2019t want to waste the summer away.  It\u2019ll be gone as soon as you know it.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a while since I\u2019ve seen you.  Miss grabbing crepes.  I don\u2019t want to promise that I\u2019ll be in the city because my schedule is not normal anymore.  Would be good to see you again.  Hopefully I\u2019ll have a stretch of days when I can escape my responsibilities and catch up with everyone I\u2019ve lost contact with.  It\u2019s a long laundry list of things.  Who ever thought I\u2019d have a list of responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Not much else happening besides my exhibition and watching my niece.  We may go to the zoo soon.  She\u2019ll be amused.  Hope your well.  Take care.<\/p>\n<p>Paule<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/marie23aa.jpg\" alt=\"marie23aa\" title=\"marie23aa\" width=\"419\" height=\"590\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-514\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/marie23aa.jpg 419w, http:\/\/www.paulepictures.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/marie23aa-213x300.jpg 213w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 419px) 100vw, 419px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\nvar gaJsHost = ((\"https:\" == document.location.protocol) ? \"https:\/\/ssl.\" : \"http:\/\/www.\");\ndocument.write(unescape(\"%3Cscript src='\" + gaJsHost + \"google-analytics.com\/ga.js' type='text\/javascript'%3E%3C\/script%3E\"));\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\ntry {\nvar pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(\"UA-12680478-1\");\npageTracker._trackPageview();\n} catch(err) {}<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>..June 2006 New York..
