The View From My Desk - Wednesday 2/1/2006



Well, part of it anyway. Just some of the stuff hanging on the divider behind my desk.

I met this guy at the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena, and I thought, “I’d like to have lunch with him.” That’s sort of my test of how much I like a character in a book or a film, whether I’d take the opportunity to have lunch with her or him.

Maurice-Quentin de La Tour painted this self-portrait in 1764. Doesn’t he look like fun? I think I’d actually bump the date up to a dinner. And drinks after.

Maybe even dancing.
