I'm at Tam's. The sun shines through the shades in stripes on the table. I just finished eating. I wasn't hungry, and I swore I wouldn't eat 'til I got home today, and then I came here and ate anyway. Weird compulsion. I have to get a plunger. I wrote a letter to Grandma Miller yesterday and put it in the mail with a picture of Rochelle and me. Then I watched Tyffany Mynx get by a room full of . I rode over to LACAS and got some more books for my class. Jose showed me his new reels. I rode to class. They're learning numbers and "next to" and "across from" and how to find a room in a school. Class ended early so the teachers could go to a workshop. I rode home first and had a bourbon and a smoke. I was a little buzzed when I walked into the meeting. It was very lame. I felt superior to the other teachers. I was silent lording it over them because I knew I was a great teacher, and they were not. I left at nine o'clock even though the meeting wasn't over. I heard one of the lame-o's whining when I said good-bye. "How come he's leaving? I want to leave," and a lady said, "Because he's bold." Yeah. That's me. Bold. I drank beer with Rochelle when I got home, and we switched channels around and baked some stuffed pork chops. I talked to Getoff about what kind of guitar to order and how to start a business. He said you just declare yourself a private contractor. We talked about drinking tonight. I would like to shoot some pool this afternoon. I have to write Gramma Zurn a letter. We've got "Notting Hill" to watch. I might go see "The Straight Story" tomorrow. I think I'm supposed to pick Bern up from the airport tonight. We'll ride the bus to the Westside Pavilion tomorrow. Mariachi's having a party tomorrow at which Rochelle will be the guest of honor. There is no baseball game this Sunday in honor of the Super Bowl. I found an Italian/English dictionary on the sidewalk yesterday morning. It was all wet, but I left it on the bench outside my classroom door to dry in the sun and it is now only slightly damp. Walter said, "Mr. Zurn, my tooth is loose." I said, "Come here. I'll knock it out for you." He didn't come. Yahaira Yahaira Yahaira said, "Mr. Zurn, Angel take my eraser Barbie."
