August 1, 1979

Wednesday; I"m 15.

Hi!  As I'm writing this I'm listening on the headphones to Glenn Gould playing Bach's Well Tempered Clavier, book 2.  Nice record.  

Well, I have some news.  Tim D. has finally gotten a chance to get a girlfriend.  Her name is Katie.  Tim met her on July 28, when Tim's sister Kathy got married.  I was invited.  It was a nice wedding.

Well, to get on, at the reception Tim met this girl named Katie, who is a relative of the groom.  they got to talking, and since I was right by them studying two spiders, I heard some of their conversation (Tim also told me about it later).  Katie was talking to Tim about how she had taken all these different drugs.  But she said she took them only once to see what they were like.  And even if she liked them she said she would still only take them once.  Tim of course doesn't like drugs, and won't take them, and he told her this.  She respected his opinion.  She doesn't force her opinions and beliefs on others.  Then Don M. signaled me to get out of the garage so they could be alone (now I'm listening to Handel's Royal Fireworks music).  So Don and I went out to play ping-pong in his yard, while Tim and Katie wandered off.  Later I found out by Tim that they both had gone over to a house where Kathy was.  She and a bunch of her friends were smoking a bowl.  Katie took a puff, offered Tim some, but he declined.  They stayed a little while, and then came back.  When he came back, I saw him and asked him where he went.  Tim told me about it, and then we saw Don come up from his house.  Before, Don thought when Tim had disappeared that he had taken Katie up to the fort at the top of the garage to make out.  So Tim and I decided to tell Don just that.  Well, Don fell for it and we had our fun until Tim finally decided to tell Don.  He then said that he didn't believe Tim anyway from the start, but he did.  When he asked Tim "let me shake your hand!" he believed him.  I'll talk more on the morrow.
