All we did today was play because we had the day off.

Scan family photos at Amy's desk; in the market for a DV camcorder; Yumi and I go to classical guitar concert on campus; Joseph is the stage director; I am "monkey hand"; talk of Marcel contributing rent; Yumi resorts to "American" medicine.

Struggling with Hume; guest speaker in class from Shoshone Nation; cool guy, reminds me of Grandpa; beautiful sunset; attend talk on Hubble telescope; interested in space, once more; night walk.

Go to Naval Reserve Center to find out what I need to do for summer training; they're going to put me on a frigate based out of Treasure Island, in San Francisco; during my physical, the doctor detects a heart condition: mitral valve prolapse; I'm told to lay off strenuous exercise.

Grant and I go to Jodie's birthday party in Streamwood; it's been ages since we've seen her; Jodie shows us her pictures of the Europe trip, which bring back a LOT of memories; even Grant is feeling nostalgic; suddenly want to talk to Ann.

Today Todd and I played and watched Project U.F.O.

Amy furious at Baytree for tracking her down while on vacation; Japanese class is a real train wreck; Tajima sensei is great, but totally disorganized; Ted, Don, and I are ready to take out some of the younger punks; Muria has already promised the garage as a practice space for some friends of hers in a band.

No one in Section can agree on a topic; Prop 187 hunger strike planned for the weekend; don't tell me what to do; $7 massage; movies on Western Shoshone; finish National Geographic article on the Universe, which puts everything into perspective.

Decide to get hair-cut at barbershop on Larchmont; while there I meet Huell Howser, from KCET; we get to talking and he wonders if I wouldn't mind working with him on his next project; we exchange information, but I don't expect anything to come of it.

Go to another meeting at Stu's; stop by Yorktown to see Grandma and Grandpa at the show; while there I pick up re-mixes of "Sweetest Girl" and "Our House"; ask about getting Madness videos; Grant and I play Subbuteo; Jodi calls me out of the blue; she's having a party and would like Grant and I to come.
