This entry is from an ancient 1980 paper diary tucked away on our bookself. Rereading it revealed how much has changed, how much I am the same (in spite of growing up) which inspired my typing it into a 21st Century friendly form to share with the world - starting here.
4/11/80 Friday
The weekend at Last! Yes, here I am in Atlanta again - this time only for the evening to see Iggy Pop. A bizarre type show from what I hear. I had ammo and coffee for breakfast at Lisa W's house. I also broke my fast today. I really needed a break - I'll be ready to tear it up again starting tomorrow or Monday - eating within reason. This morning in production class I played the part in Rik Oswald's script of "Roxanne Rolls" - a punk rock lead singer of the "First Street Battalion" and my debut album was called "War Crimes". I had a great time playing the part - I even faked a cocaine snort off stage before the show - Yeah - It was bunches of fun.
The Mag class was Mod - our assignment is due on Monday - And he says most of our assignments will be due 1 or 2 days after it says on the syllabus. Newswriting is still a drag. Oh well - as they say - Two outta three Ain't Bad.
The daytime I spent not at work - nothing to do there anyway. With Q, Lucy and Richard I went to T.K.'s - and had a salad and two glasses of wine. Sigh. I had "diet stew" for lunch at home. While at the guesthouse I ate a bunch of strawberries. And Orange juice. So much for ketosis. That will have to wait until next week again. Or maybe I'll be on a strict grapefruit diet? I think another fast is in order. Enough of that shit for now-
Bernie has me baffled! He wasn't home again last night when I tried to call him. He hasn't called me - And that's not fair to poor me. He never even acknowleged my Easter present - those boxes were great.
I'm gunna work on my caligraphy - soon this book may be hand lettered instead of Leslie scrawled.
Whew! It's Sat. Night (Sunday Morn. Really) And I'm ripprd - but that will be for later pages-
For this moment, a critique of Fri. night should be cool - And here it goes-
Ig was Mod. Lucy + Q bought me a few Zombies besides what I brought for entertainment. We had a great time together - even if Lucy felt a bit pekid by the end of the evening. There were lots of people there I knew - Jay from G.O.R.P., Nicki Tone-Tone, Michael, and bunches of other Athens folks Yeah! I'm glad. No wonder even the scene in NYC knows about Athens!
Lucy and I slept at Lucy's guest house - and we left Quintis at his house. Quintis was fun at Ig. Boy, Lucy sure is lucky to have him - he's so Mod. He even knows Jay from G.O.R.P. - they went to school together somewhere along the line. Hmmmm- Maybe he can set something up?! That might be fun.
