We half-heartedly tried
to give Dave the bumps [why?] but
we were all too tired + only got to 3. We all went inside, tired,
wet, cold at 11 pm. We dried off our hair and sat in our wet
clothes (except Bob as he had brought an extra pair of pants
with him) [was he a psychic?].
At 11:30 Alan, Dave, Judy, Danielle + I went outside to wait
for my father to pick us up. He still wasn't there at 11:45
so we went inside. We were wet so we were cold. I called
[home] and he had left at 11:30. He got there at 10 to 12
and drove everybody home].
Left at 11:30, got a ride with Ralph.
December
3 Sunday
[Called
Alan at 12...he said not to come over before 1 pm as he had
to wash his hair + he said he'd see if Gillian would come
cause she'd started acting real nice to Al again [at this time I was a sarcastic little
prick (I'm totally reformed today) and had given Gillian such
a hard time that she got sick of it (and me)]. I got there at 10 past 1. Went to the back but he wouldn't
answer so I had to go to the front.].
About
1 Ralph came over, sat in the basement.
[We sat in the front of the basement for a while calling people
(his plants are doing well). Gillian didn't want to come,
Lesley didn't want to, and when we finally got through to
Dave he said he'd come but he'd have to wait until halftime
of the Grey Cup (Hamilton won 13-10). Alan and I did nothing
much, we looked at his plants, talked and smoked
[the reference is to cigarettes, I think] and
then Dave phoned to see if we wanted him to pick up hamburgers
for us from Mac's...Dave got there around 3 or 3:30 + we ate...].
About 3 Dave came, we talked, made crank calls. Ordered pizza
[At around 5:30 we decided that we wanted a pizza. Alan tried
to get money out of his mother but failed. Then Dave remembered
that he had $10 he ripped off his mother. He would pay for
it and I'd pay him back later (Al got his money from his mother.
The pizza arrived at 6:15 when Dave got a call and he had
to go babysitting + he'd get picked up at 7 on St. John's.
We ate the pizza and Dave left 15 to 7. Dave left at 6:45.
[Alan phoned Gillian to see if she'd come that night and she
suggested coming to her house as only her + Abbie
[sic] were home. Just before we left Mr. Rhodes
started asking about the plants + I got worried but nothing
happened. So we embarked on the long walk to Gillian's. Alan
brought his horn + "Living in the Past". He blew
his horn and talked thru it the whole way there. When we hit
Golf Street Alan started yelling thru the horn, "Warning:
32 Golf, we are coming" or something to that effect].
At 7:30 Ralph and I walked to Gillian's with the plastic horn
[that I'd gotten from my parents
when they'd gone to the carnival in Quebec City in February
1970]. Abby there, sat in the livingroom and the
study. [When we got there Gillian and
Abbie [sic] were doing
a duet on recorder + piano. We sat downstairs for a while
until Abbie kicked Alan for using her glass cutter and we
went upstairs to the den. We watched a bit of the National
Geographic special + then Gill showed us a 1/4 gram of hash
of her brother's. Alan + Gill rolled it and then we went to
Perrette's (believe!)]. Had a splif
on the street. [We came back and stayed downstairs.
Then Abbie started telling us about the night before when
the brother of the friend at whose house she was sleeping
invited himself to her bed. It was all pretty gross + disgusting,
after all she's only 13. [The high
moral tone here is rather shot through with hypocrisy, not
to mention jealousy. It is also indicative of my own naiveté:
that certain details of Abby's narrative were shocking to
me was due to my very limited sexual experience.] Anyway father picked us up at 9:40, dropped off Alan]. Left at 9:30, got a ride with Ralph..
December
4 Monday
Lunch-outside
the C.C. pool at the side with Dave, Ruth and Ralph, then
we went downstairs with Linda and Mike. They had blue acid
[Lost Dave + Ruth (she's back) [from
Barbados] in caf, found them again in student lounge.
Alan + I went out for a cigarette, Dave + Ruth came later.
Me + Alan went back inside + in the lounge we met Mike who'd
just bought a blue tab for him and Linda. We all went to 1st
floor [the old student lounge beneath the stairs near the
front doors] as they cut it up. Then Mike went + bought
another one as did Dave. Linda, Dave + Mike all ended up doing
whole [tabs] + it was Linda's 1st time
[to do acid]....]. Math-Mike broke his
pencil in 2 and gave me 1/2. [After
[school] I met up with Andy
and we talked about Abbie [sic].
Andy + I thought it was pretty disgusting + a little pathetic
because she + her friend Karin (her boyfriend was there too)
were only 13 and already they were worried about....[what
a pair of gossiping hypocrites. The ellipsis here is in the
original text. I'm not sure why I didn't write the words "being
pregnant". Delicacy? Not very likely.]]
