Calm, Cool and Collected

My mind is doing things the rest of me didn't understand.
-as heard while watching
the TV series 'KYLE XY'

Twenty-five years ago today:

June 5, 1984
Tuesday

Chris was calm, cool and collected during our conversation today. I have to quit using the word “COOL”. The word is so bland and could be more defined and descriptive using other adjectives.

Helen invited me to dinner for spare ribs. I took a ‘rain check’ deciding to have my mom’s dinner instead.

The bike ride for the day was rewarding. I saw an ex-Pacific Telephone employee (Martha Walters) with her “goober” husband. I also saw Ron, the brainless windsurfer.

Chris telephoned later that night and we spoke from 8:10pm until 9:30pm.
“I haven’t been going out due to my money problems,” I explained.
“If I get a job at InterFace I’ll make $12.75 an hour as a sales rep,” Chris said.
“Well, I hope you get out and can get into that,” I said with encouragement.

I wanted to stay up to watch an episode of ‘Dark Shadows’, instead I went to bed.
