I wish my school had an advanced figure drawing class. We had some great “figures”. All we had were art classes in making advertisements. Boring actually….
I made a personal contract that I will not be “friends” on FB with anyone I’ve had a romantic relationship with. (Except my significant other who is subsequently the love of my life.). I decide this from day one. It’s been a good choice all around.
It is OK for Janis to pose nude in art class and then contact one of the artists 30 years later. If Arlo tried that, Janis would kick him to the curb. Double standard. This is the second time a MALE classmate contacted Janis. At least she did not go see Lance…but she was tempted to.So Janis had no problem being nude in front of a room full of guys? We learn more about her every day.
After not hearing from her for 35 years, my first real high school girlfriend contacted me. For a year we emailed almost every week. At first there was nostalgia about the old days but soon the conversation was about what was going on now. Work, family, friends, etc.
Then one day in a short email she said her husband felt uncomfortable about our friendship and she stopped corresponding. I was disappointed but understood.
I have lost so many friends over the past, even a girlfriend of the past. But I think of the words of John Lennon In My Life…Though I know I’ll never lose affectionFor people and things that went beforeI know I’ll often stop and think about themIn my life I love you more….and so to my wife and my children and friends old and new, this lyric is for you.

I’m going to guess….no, you didn’t.
I’m thinking Arlo’s imagination is in overdrive now though.

Perhaps she can show Arlo some of he sketches she posed for.
Ahuehuete about 4 years ago
Interesting how non of Arlo’s old flames ever try to contact him. Perhaps he doesn’t have any?

A new revelation from Janos’ past. She was pretty wild back in the day. And there was always Vince!

I’m…ashamed…at the conclusion I leaped to regarding Janis’ state of dress during art classes.

I imagine “very talented” means she liked how he drew her.

Why didn’t Maxwell contact Janis until now? He is not that interested in her.
