(6pm) Class was interesting today. (There are lots more women in accounting than when I went to school. (Good!))
I cruised through the Sub after class and ran into Carrie, Hunter, and Zoe, and we had a nice chat. (I am still in lust with Zoe.)
Quotes:
Julius Fast and Bernstein-"A high degree of
sexual self-esteem and a firm conviction of your own sexual identity are both necessary in
creating sexual chemistry."
"If you wish to strengthen your own self image; you can imitate the body language of a self confident person."
"Too many of us fear love and turn off sexual chemistry before it begins."
Thomas Pynchon-"Why not say 'a sensory cue we
just aren't paying attention to.' Something we could be looking at but no one else
sees."
"'Pavlov believed that the ideal, the end we all struggle toward in science, is the true mechanical explanation.'"
"Don't forget the real business of war is buying and selling."
Arikiev-"Ultimately there is no certainty, and each moment contains new possibilities."

(6pm) Well, happy "31" months to me. (Ha.)
I got a letter from Erica today and she is doing well. (Good for her.)
(11pm) Nice evening.
I played racquetball with Hunter and then swam a few laps. Then Carrie cooked up some food for the three of us, and I learned how to play cribbage. (Fun!)
Now I am pooped.

(10pm) I did some tax work tonite and picked up $25. (A much needed contribution to the cause.)
Notes from the ozone:
1. Is it self-doubt that leads artists to not only push for understanding, but to seek mass approval?
2. Isn't the movie "Ghostbusters" so popular because it puts forth the contention that we can fight and contain our demons? (We should at least try.)
Quotes:
Arikiev- "Ultimately your efforts, not the results provide the satisfaction."
"Any attempt to force action fosters reaction."
