174. Thinking of You



"Yul, got a minute," asked Em.

"Sure, come on in. What's up?"

"Got a little something to hopefully cheer you up a bit. It's not much, and I'm sure with a little more time I could do better, but, well, here you go ."

"Oh my Janus Em. It's incredible."

Arms laced and tears let loose. And that is the story of how the first known sketch of Rog came to be.

Oh my! I can see, I was not wrong in suspecting Rog was a handsome devil. Those eyes, that smile, that nose, those hands...ooooooh. :-D Yes, well, excellent sketch, poppet, seriously, just beautiful. What an absolutely wonderful expression he is wearing. That infectious smile starts in the eyes and lights up his whole face, mine too as I look at him.
Yes, just how I imagined him. Hot stuff, for sure.
Hot talent you have there too!

& such a sweet young thing, Em is, darling thought. :-)

Autumn Storm said...

Think I will have to print this and keep it by my bed - so that I can wake up and look at that smile. :-D

Trée said...

Well my dear Sweetest, I wanted to give you a little somthin somthin for sweet slumber tonight. Promise I'll include the stetson and boots, bare-chested with jeans next time. You know, Rog did grow up on a ranch, so I'm sure there are some photos somewhere I could use as reference for a sketch. :-D

As always, thanks for those very, very kind words. :-)

Look at me -- I'm happy. Don't worry, be happy.
Here I give you my phone number. When you worry, call me,
I make you happy. Don't worry, be happy.

Mol, great song!

That's a nice friendly face. :-)

Trée said...

Thanks Leigh. Rog is a special one. :-)

How is my sweet apple doing? :-)

Autumn Storm said...

Sweet dreams when you get that far. :-)

I got to check out all the pictures for the story! I'm not sure how I missed that link in the sidebar, I must be getting even more blind in my old age (they tried to make me wear glasses but you know, they just aren't me). They were all so beautiful and there are so many different styles I was just rapt.

I'm with Autumn, I love this smile. Faced with it, I would have no choice but to smile back (and probably flirt more than a little, that's what smiles do).

Autumn Storm said...

You know, really the deck needs a lick of paint, but I've not the heart to do it. I like that weathered look. Walking out there is to be sheathed in a warm smile, especially on a day like today, where it seems to be reminding that summer is not far gone and will return again.
I'm headed for a swim, breakfast is good to go, all you have to do is make your own coffee. Oh, and good morning, when you get that far. :-)

Trée said...

Bean, so glad you took the time to view the album. I've included an excerpt in the comment section for each image, so one could get a gist of the story from the image and the excerpt. I do appreciate your very kind words and yes, Rog does have a smile to die for, no doubt Yul would agree with that. :-)

Afternoon Sunshine. There is alot to be said for the Wabi Sabi asethetic, and I for one perfer the worn to the new, except when purchasing a car. Got to have the new car smell. Poppet says an occasion virgin, but usually they are more trouble than they are worth. :-D

Hope Rog didn't keep you up too late or get you up too early. Coffee is ready if you'd like a cup. Hazelnut essence this morn. Goes with the Fall weather. :-)

Anonymous said...

I'm okay :-) Thank-you for asking!

Trée said...

Leigh, thanks for the update. How is the prep coming for your great adventure out East? Are you getting excited yet? :-)

Lindsey said...

Awwww. I was thinking about you too you little devil. ;o)

Autumn Storm said...

Poppet says an occasion virgin...
LOL

Yes to that question, you're a star, was just coming over for seconds.
& Rog was good as gold, it was a dream. :-)

Have a ton of fun today!!! And let me know who wins.

Trée said...

Lindsey, I've been thinking of you too and trying to figure out how to get you to bite me, now that I know that you bite that is. :-D

I think I like that side of the Linster. :-)

Trée said...

Will do Sunshine. They've got to win one sooner or later. Glad to hear Rog did not disappoint. Would have ruin his rep and we can't have that. :-D

Oliviah said...

What a nice smile...makes me want to just give him a great big hug. I love this one. You really do bring these characters alive. :)

Trée said...

Thanks my dear fractal flame of purity. I've always had the visual of the crew in my mind, so its nice to put them to screen for others to see them as I do, or at least as close as my ability lets me. :-)

Yes, I know it's coming - but I'm a bit scared. My training start to upscale this week. I'll be cycling into work daily and working out at the gym every lunchtime. I've had injections to protect me from illnesses and trying to find a good small camera to really get some good shots!

Excited? Yes I am! But it's a land away, and I'll be out of contact and will have minimum of access with my mobile phone. So it's into the wilds and see where life takes me. can't wait to meet some of the locals!

:-)

You are too funny! Your smile needs no improvement(reference piccie you posted somewhile back which I happened to see at A's place :-D)

Trée said...

Leigh, you are going to have the time of your life and make enough memories to write a book. And I expect you to blog all about it as soon as you are able. :-)

Trée said...

Oh Terry, just leave me a few more comments like that and I won't need the mirror. How is Jose? :-)

Trée said...

Hey You! We Won! Woooooooooo big Hoooooooooo! :-D

tsduff said...

Mirrors? tee hee.

Trée said...

Ssssshhhhhh! A poppet must have his secrets. :-D

Autumn Storm said...

Woooooooooo Hoooooooooo! Fan*tastic!!! Ya see, it helped that I was rooting right along. ;-D

Trée said...

Poppet has just enlisted you to cheer at all the games. Do you have the required outfit?

Autumn Storm said...

Have pompons and a dangerously short skirt - do I need anything else? :-)

Trée said...

Let me think.

Nope, that'll do. :-D

Autumn Storm said...

"ME" Liz Strauss said...

Roger is one appealing fellow. I'd have to talk to a guy with eyes like that. No question about it. He's a special one. God your are talented.

Trée said...

Liz, you are making me smile like Rog. I wonder, do you have a box of wishes and if so, might I exchange a cookie or two for a wish? I wish, my dear Liz, someone had whispered those words to me many, many years ago. And I wish that I have the wisdom to whisper it on my watch.

Thank you my dear friend for the gift that you are. Though the moon and sun dance a thousand waltzes, your influence on my life would lessen not, but like the vine, grow with the passing of seasons, winking back the warmth of a kiss in the reflected morning dew.

Pure poetry, so lovely. :-)


Sweet dreams, soft and soothing as those raindrops, when you get that far. I'll be thinking of you. :-)

Keshi said...

Maybe I could go out for dina with Rog? ;-)

Keshi.

Autumn Storm said...

Morning, beautiful soul, x

Agnes said...

Tree, you really do impress me with these drawings. When you draw, you go for the top. Faces are very difficult but you've really go it down. Character and emotion! Well done!

Hugs to you hon. Happy Monday.

Trée said...

Keshi, you'd have to get through Yul and then Autumn first. :-D

Trée said...

Oh Aggie, I'm just having fun. I've seen your drawings, and one day, perhaps, I'll be half as good as you are my sweet sexy woman. And you do the female body so good too. I think you should do more and if you don't want to post them, just send them to me. I can supply a lot of reference material if you need it. :-D

Trée said...

Afternoon Sunshine. The soft rain continues this morning and it does put me in the best of moods. Like mother's milk, the sky gives forth succor through the wet release of her essense and the birds and the trees rejoice in quiet rapport in the still windless morn. I feel nourished in the steady beat of nature against the heights of my abode and I feel grateful I still have ears to hear and eyes to see and I remind myself that not everyone can say that.

So how has your day been so far my Sweetest little mountain climber. Nearing the top? :-)

Autumn Storm said...

Oh my, you really do have the gift. I'm at a loss even to comment on that passage.

Snap! :-D I feel like Maria Von Trapp dancing in the moonlit garden today, full of glee and feeling very lucky.
Likely something to do also with being up and over. All done! For now at least. :-)

Happy day to you, x

Trée said...

Hey You, check out the T spot for a version of Serentity in Solitude. We may see it hear in just a bit. :-)

Keshi said...

I can wait :)

Keshi.

ChickyBabe said...

Such a happy face!

Trée said...

Chicky, I think you would like Rog alot. You might even feel the need to "slap" him around just a bit. :-D

Trée said...

Keshi, I'll let you know when Rog makes the rounds down under. You'll be first on his list. :-)
