My first poetry project is to go through and prepare it for printing and run off a copy to proof. (I think I am about ready to get back into the writing groove.)
(9pm) Denver.
For the first time on this trip I didn’t get a window seat. (Oh well!)
I wonder what messes D O has made? (Probably nothing too terrible.)
I sat alone again in the smoking section from LA to Denver, but I have got some company on this leg. (She is a truck driver based in Missoula coming home from a holiday in Tucson.)-(She says she is on the road all but a couple days a month.)-(She is tired and quiet.)
Erica says she likes skinny j’s. (I will agree.) (Maybe I am wrong, but I think they are more efficient.) (Be nice to have a toke now! (Patience!)) (Some people have labeled me as cheap for rolling skinny one’s. I always bring along several, so I don’t think that is why I do it.)
(10pm) Billings.
3-1-88
(Midnite) Home again. (Nice!)
It looks like D O got a little crazy this weekend.
(1am) Chores are done.
Time to relax and unwind.
(7am) Tiredness!
(5pm) Work was hectic! (Nice!)
Erica called. (It sounds like she had a fun weekend. (Good for her!)) (She says she is thinking again about leaving Henry.)
Compared to all the days I have sat waiting on Erica, one day waiting around on Carrie was pretty minor. (The only real option was riding around town on buses, which wouldn’t have been much better.)
I am still thinking about finding another apartment. (I have got to do it before the state starts garnishing my wages, so I should get onto that project soon.)
(7pm) I had a little visit with Lauren today. (Nice!)
I wonder if I will ever over come my shyness? (It would be nice to spend time with women and find some lovers, but it isn’t likely to happen until I overcome.) (Oh well, I am better than I once was and I am happy with life now; so no big-a-deal if I remain alone.)
(8pm) Quiet nite. (Nice!)
