Quite a bit has happened, but in many respects, nothing at all has happened. Such is my life&hellip; Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s up in a factual list (this is culled from memories and journal entries): I got my kitchen, bathroom, trim and couches done, put up some pictures, got a new TV, took my bookshelf out of the living room, got rid of a <u>bunch<\/u> of books and stuff, cleaned up closets, etc.-the place looks <b>nice<\/b>. Worked out for a while, stopped, flew my kite regularly for a while, stopped (went flying Tues.-I felt much better afterwards). Went to a kite convention in Oct.-the wind sucked, but good to see all those flyers. Played in the UCLA gamelan again this fall-good, but I got moved to Kedjar from Djegong-I&#8217;m still learning to be the metronome for the orchestra&hellip;It&#8217;s tough-you&#8217;re out front, and <u>everyone<\/u> knows when you screw up&hellip; Haven&#8217;t been to the Blue Cafe in a while-maybe Sunday&hellip; I have a <b><u>huge<\/u><\/b> crush on a close friend of mine-I talk to her all the time-it&#8217;s really tough when you know they don&#8217;t share the feelings&hellip;I could go on, but I won&#8217;t. Visited my sister in St.Louis over Thanksgiving-nice, but cold-her baby son is <u>darling<\/u>. Saw&#8217;em again this Tuesday when they were out for her husband&#8217;s residency interviews. Went to a party\/pottery sale of a business friend-nice Xmas presents-nice to socialize with somebody other than Diane &amp; friends (not that I don&#8217;t like <u>that<\/u> &hellip;;-) Got my Christmas cards out-received several too-Eileen is living in Santa Barbara with her boyfriend-I also went through all my old correspondence and pictures-strange-I&#8217;m thinking about looking up one of those old friends-I&#8217;m also remembering some of that era-my sister found and returned an old Christmas present that was one of the <b><u>really bad<\/u><\/b> memories. Big &#8216;ol set of stuff, huh?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been having some interesting dreams, I remember more of them. I also am having some stuff of a more esoteric nature happening-basically my telepathy is improving&hellip;In some respects this is a <u>bad<\/u> thing. I&#8217;m also going through a lot of mental and emotional turmoil-this crush has affected me deeply. I live a very isolated life-I see only a few people and most of my time is spent at home-this certainly has its effect, too. I&#8217;m playing my guitar more now-my rhythm has improved a <u>lot<\/u> since moving to Kedjar-I&#8217;m thinking of starting a band&hellip; Another party tomorrow (Sat.)-I hope I don&#8217;t do what I did <b>last<\/b> Saturday&hellip;Eeeek.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it!
