Erica suggested I watch the movie "Something wild", so I taped it and watched it today. (Great music.) (She always suggests good movies!)
(7pm) Today I got all of the cuts made from the addition I did from Carrie's letters, and started the process of merging them. (Neat.)
The shrink says, without motivation to change, there isn’t much more he can do. (I think, when I find the motivation, that I can do it on my own; so I am going to end that relationship.) (I have a diagnosis of my problem; I have a lot of ideas about what to do to overcome my problem, and some tools for coping with the pain.) (I am still not ready to face the pain, but I think it will come soon. (First, I want to do some more of the time consuming chores on "Outlaws and Poets" that require day after day of typing and find a job, so I can start putting down some roots.))
(8pm) Erica and Charlotte stopped by again and we had a nice long visit. (Neat!)
Charlotte brought over the last of her song lists, so I can finish up with that now. (Tis nice giving to others!)
The shrink said that, for dating, just to invite women over to watch tv. (I will try that out, when I get to that point.)
(10pm) Quiet nite. (Nice.)

(8pm) Busy day.
I finished merging the addition from Carrie's letters today, and am printing off a new version so I can proof it later on.
I finished up the taping project for Charlotte today. (This one filled up five tapes.) (Twas neat listening to lots of stories.)
I have an interview on Friday for a job with the City. (That could be good.) (It would sure be nice to have a job again!) (This one is just an entry-level position, but right now I have to get back to work at any level.)
I really enjoyed the anniversary issue of "Rolling Stone". (Twas all interviews, and fascinated me.)
(11pm) Quiet nite. (Nice.)

(7am) I seem to be slipping back into sleeping later. (I did it by tricking unconscious. (I turned the clock so I can't see it from the bed, and I stopped waking up at 4am. (I have also been drinking a pot of tea in the late afternoon, which helps keep me awake through the evening.)))
Erica has had more time to spend with me lately, and I am really enjoying it. (I do love her companionship!)
