5/89 I'm picky about this.
After affect of doing drugs?
Or just doing meticulous coding?

4:15-5:15 Drive to Newport. Some thought

1) LA is not a [yellow]romantic[/yellow] place.
Where do you go with another for
quiet intimacy. There are no beautiful
parks to walk through, and there are
no beautiful beaches to drink amaretto
out of crystal like in Laguna.

2) Should I have invited Rik down?
I'm not in love with him. Crazy way
to spell Rik. He's not blond or hairy.
He's not curvaceous like Gary in SF,
who was blond + hairy. He's very formal,
and not a lot of fun. He'll be good
to be around next week when I try
to work. But having him here this
weekend could blow it all. I'm
going to be on a cruis-a-mati[c?]
tonite. I like doing that. It is
Saturday of Labor Day Weekend in L.B.
(I do missing having travelling/no sex friend though).

Room 152 is quiet, no dramatic ocean view.
Has the feel of 16 Perg[o?]la. Same
architecture + nice garden. Disapp'd
at first, but [yellow]it is so nice to be[/yellow] organized
[yellow]in my own spot[/yellow] + all cleaned up - showered + shaven
