We got Mariah's # from Andrew & Brett called her. (Half the students here bike or take the bus- I looove it) Anyway, she gave us directions & we chilled w/her & a friend out on their porch drinkin' beer & smokin'. We haven't gotten high for about 3 weeks. She let us sleep on her bed! We felt bad, but BRETT accepted. I took a shower this mornin' & played some music w/Brett & now all the girls are at college & we're cookin' our noodles we've had for a while & listenin' to Bob Dylan. I think we're meetin' Mariah at noon for lunch. I guess Andrew's comin' here to live w/Mariah in 2 weeks. & Kit is supposedly comin' in 2 weeks too. I think we're gonna' camp out somewhere in the redwoods until then at least.

We had really good vegan corn soup w/bread & Mariah went back toward the college. Brett's buyin' some reeds & a cleaner for his sax. The guy at the store, after seein' my viola, told me they were rare/hard to find, & wanted to trade me it, for a new violin. But it's only $150.00, so it's probably a crappy one. To get it restrung costs too much for me, & they wouldn't even be using viola strings. Anyway, some one's playin' real beautiful violin up in the top part of the music building. I hope to play that well some day. But Brett's out now, so I'd like to go to the bookstore(s).

I bought a book! Bad, bad...good me! Women of the Beat Generation. We're gonna' try & find a cheap place to buy some food I think, before we go into the woods/hills. I think we might chill at a spot for a couple days? So we need some food. No more traveler's cheques left! Just a little cash & my check card! $2,186.00 or somethin' like that, left in my account.
