First Forty

Sick!; only thinking of Beth, to the point where I almost felt un-attracted to her; did nothing all day.

We went to Williamsburg and saw all the old houses and craft shops. We ate lunch at the Kings Inn.

Go to San Jose to buy a suit; run into Chel and Hiroe at breakfast; do a little shopping at Yaohan; Muria's rules-for-borrowing-the-car; John Stewart at Kuumbwa; pay-raise kicks my check up to $191!

The day of women-triggering-my-homones; they're coming at me from everywhere!; beautiful ride down from campus at night; still no friends; George calls, but it's awkward talking to him.

Cherie, Claire and I meet Dick at Sycamore Canyon; listening to Dionne Warwick on the drive up; Claire and Dick bitching during hike; have picnic on the beach.

Skip math class again; call Beth and she says that she was looking for me Saturday night after the show; I'm going to kill Grant!; Beth says she'll go to game with me; feeling confused, but good; go to Denny's after work with Grant and John.

Today we drove up to Yorktown and got a hotel to sleep in.

Get call from Mariko Watanabe at the Japanese Consulate — I made the cut and will get an interview!; Yumi doesn't find out until later that night at Kuumbwa; she dances in jubilant celebration; Grace taking a master gardener class; Hiroe leaving for Japan on Saturday.

Meggin and I talk about our continued separation; I’m frustrated by the whole thing — afraid of marriage, routine, children…; Sean calls and we talk for several hours; he’s happy up in Stevens Point, living with Deb and studying Mathematics.

Meet Susan at ABC on the scooter. We eat dinner at some Thai place, talk, and then go up to the Lazerium at Griffith Observatory and watch the “Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon” show.
